I agree w/ Mrs. Workie. I could give 2 shits about Montreal. Once TFC was eliminated the tournament simply didn't exist anymore in my mind.
I'll start caring when there is some type of incentive where the success of a Canadian team meant more qualifying seeds.
Basically comes down to... 'no incentive for TFC, no care!'
Watched it yesterdaya and was really dissapointed how shitty mexican defense was.. it was fucking terrible. First half they could not adjust to the turf at all.. In any case fuck limpact. Further they go, more $$ they get which will enable them to buy better players, which makes things harder for us.
My only hope is that Laguna trashes them in Mexico, hopefully it will be humid 38C with 3-4k elevation and a corrupt ref
There are 121234141 reason to hate limpact here are few:
1. It is marketed to French only pretty much.. Montreal used to be mostly English speaking city well not anymore..
2. They burned TFC scarves
3. That sad excuse for a banner with garbage bags
4. Canada MNT game.. tell you just how much they care about Canada.
5. Their support group being a more inbred retarded bunch then Columbus Crew suporters
Anyway fuck em, I remember watching Barca destroy Spartak Moscow by something ridiculous like 4-0 and laughing my ass off because I supported Dynamo Kyiv when iw as a kid. It is exactly same thing, they are our enemy, they are the ones who prevented us from playing in CL.. they took our $$$$, the $$ that could ahve been used for grass, roof.. academy. Bastards took our lunch and people here are proud of them? /boggle
there is incentive for tfc, the more success canadian teams have in this tourney, the sooner they will add a second canadian participant to the mix.
like em or not, montreal's game yesterday was a massive day in canadian soccer history and winning only amplified that.
i hope they pull it off, it will better the game in our country.
Tomorrow's is a cute blonde.
What the fuck are you talking about? A rivalry is a rivalry. What, we have to grade them based on age now?
I see a lot of apologist Canadian semi-TFC fans in this thread, so underwhelmed by their own country and so lacking in anything remotely resembling self-confidence in our national identity that they'd support one of their team's only arch rivals.
Fucking sad. You cannot be a hardcore TFC fan and root for a team we'll be competing with every year for the national title. That makes NO sense. They don't represent Canada, their roster is not all-Canadian, and it's not even a Canadian competition.
Best-case scenario? Their plane for Mexico crashes on takeoff into Stade Saputo. Everyone survives, but all are too injured to play, and the stadium is a write off.
And this makes sense , eh
Is that means next year if we make it to CL TFC will represent USA since most players are US Citizens,and our roster is everything but Canadian,and on top of that we shouldn't care about CL since that is not Canadian competition. OH BOY, you make sense tonight big time
There's a different tradition in Canada that we're just getting over now. There was a time in hockey that most Canadians would prefer a Canadian-based team win the Stanley Cup, so as the Canadian teams were eliminated from the playoffs, some fans would cheer for the remaining Canadian teams.
Of course, part of that was wrapped up in the fact that all the other NHL teams are USA-based and there's a little anti-Americanism in there.
But we're getting over it in hockey (I can't imagine an Oilers fan cheering on the Flames) and we'll get over it in this, too.
I'm loving the Impact right now. They've earned my respect, for the rest of you that think I am not a TFC a supporter because of it, GO FUCK RIGHT OFF. I'll support whoever I want to support, bunch of idiots in here trying to tell some people who they can and can't support.
Your acting like a 4 year old. I am very patriotic, but regardless of a rivalry with a team we've played like 4 times, I'm not going to not support a CANADIAN team going as far as they have.
Give your head a shake, this isn't England where there are team rivalries that have been around for 100 years.
And wishing death on a whole entire team is so pathetic that it blows my mind somebody would even say it.
spent some time in peru. the top teams in the league hate eachother to no end. but when libertadores comes around they enjoy watching their national rivals knock off international foes, can only help the prestige of their league.
you are right pachuco, they have earned repsect, and again, they have only made the rest of concacaf realize that soccer in canada is the real deal.
COED must pay more than SSG
quality is better
ya, wait until the Impact game in May... you`ll be all nervous and worried cuz you respect the Impact.. and in your heart you`ll be too emotionally invested in the Impact to really get hyped up about TFC.
it`s like when you have a long term girlfriend... then one day you start seeing some chick on the side for sex only.... you can`t be as mentally focused and in love with your long term girlfriend unless you stop banging the other chick!

Impact AND TFC supporter. That's funny.
Love who you want to, mate, but most people on here hate the L'Impact with a passion. Especially after the away game where a bunch of our supporters were attacked by Impact fans.
Speaking in general terms, not the single post in the over dozen pages today.
