Lol, you're an Impact or Crew fan taking the piss aren't you

Im thinking it really is Craiger, having a laugh.

Lumpy, you're making yourself an awful target right now, after a loss and all.

All those teams expect to win, too.

And in reply to another of your posts, I just want to say that TFC has not always been a garbage team. In fact, almost any other year of TFC could beat this one.

TFC has always been lousy and their lousiness may have caused bitterness to surface in a few fans. New fans will take their place. TFC soccer is so much more enjoyable to watch now despite the losses.

There is no way Winter is employed by Wednesday. Assuming MLSE stays true to form (short term solutions to keep the fans paying), Winter will be on his bike.

Hopefully you were not expecting to rebuild a garbage team (which Toronto always has been) into a winner in a little over a year. That would be a miracle.

How about Martin O'Neill turning Sunderland from a relegation bound team into a top half of the premiership team in less than a month. Or Di Matteo turning Chelsea from having a very mediocre team into champions league and FA cup finalist in less than a month. Or Harry Rednapp turning porsmouth from another relegation bound team into a top half team in less than half a season. I can keep on naming instances where new coaches have come into a team and changed it almost instantly.

It doesn't need a miracle to turn a garbage team into a winnter, it just needs a decent coach. Winter hasn't proven that he's a decent coach. It's as simple as that! How long do we give him for christ sake? A good coach doesn't need 15 months to change a team into a winner! That's FAR too long, especially in pro football!

What a completely unreasonable thing to consider that players have to perform! Maybe we should tell JDG he's awesome and just get him another coach -- I guess that would be JDG's third? I've lost track.

His players, his job to get them motivated and performing. No that's not unreasonable, our players perform elsewhere but they can't here for some reason (how curious!).

The striker we had who we tried to bastardize into playing AM currently has as many goals as our entire team through 7 league games. One of many examples of us cycling players to no end, with no results to show for it. The issue isn't our players, it's the brain trust.

apparently no coach has ever gone three years without making the playoffs in MLS. If he sticks around long enough he could blow that one apart too.

You would have fired Sigi Schmidt and Peter Vermes before they had success in Columbus and KC, wouldn't you?
"Hey FAT SIGI, two years without the playoffs in a league where 8 teams make the playoffs... yer outta here!"
"Hey Pete, yer worse than Onalfo, the shithead you fired!"

You'd be Harold Ballard. lol.
