If you drop the narrative that we're all optimistic fools, sure. I find that equally annoying.
I think it's so lazy to wave away our performance as the other team having a bad day. Nothing we did...
I'm sorry, but if you consider this:

to be a "free header" I will gladly continue to wear rose coloured glasses. I will bear the burden of balancing out against...
They did not "shell" us. I don't consider one shot on target in a whole match to be a shelling. That's taking credit away from the strong defensive performance and attributing the win to being lucky...
They didn't get any allocation from Gonzalez's sale because his transfer fee was less than his salary (this was/is a rule now, apparently).
There were rumblings of Seattle potentially making a change, but Lagerway has publicly backed him in response:...
Chicago Fire hired Veljko Paunovic today as head coach. Won the U-20 WC with Serbia. Apparently they passed on Kreis.

Starting to think...
Didn't Vanney have 3 years as an assistant at Chivas? That's slightly longer than Robinson I believe.
I don't disagree of course that Robinson has done far better thus far but let's leave playing...

I want to see a Canadian source corroborate this. Until then I put zero stock in this being true.
Even if Kreis wasn't interested I seriously doubt Manning would hire a foreign coach with no MLS experience.
Yeah, this is bogus. Doesn't make any sense to pass on Kreis, publicly back Vanney, then hire a foreign coach a couple weeks later.
Maybe if we had brought in Gandini or one of the other Italians...
This wasn't a situation where they couldn't find anyone to take the job. Vieira was their first choice. He's been coaching in the Man City academy for years now - he is being groomed to eventually...
That's the frustration for him I think. Here's the interview: http://bigstory.ap.org/article/63dc0f31b4fb4709acca7c81b9e6c83b/bob-bradley-leaves-norway-yearning-bigger-job
He's had repeated...
Bob Bradley is near officially the new manager at Le Havre, and I read a recent interview he did where he said he was frustrated that he couldn't break into a management role in a top league......
If they got shipped out they would both have to take pay cuts, but we'd pocket the transfer fee is what Oldtimer is saying (or whatever portion we're allowed to keep under MLS's weird rules)....

This is worth a watch. "Straight shooter" is an understatement.
Given the ultimatum from Manning, Vanney needs 8 points from the road trip or he's gone.
All the interviews are up on TFC's Youtube page: https://www.youtube.com/user/torontofc/videos
If Kreis was offered the job but turned it down, why would Manning even mention speaking with Kreis?
I think he probably reached out to Kreis to see if there was interest, then whatever the...

This is pretty interesting from Manning though. He set 3 objective goals for next season today: 8 points from first 8 road games, 45 goals...
I'm on record as saying I was fine with Vanney returning. I still am. I think Vanney can improve and has the potential to do well. I think there's more pressure on Bezbatchenko right now to sign...

Vanney is staying (on a short leash).
