And why is there a poster for June 24th when there's a game tomorrow?

 

[ThaDevilGirl]

And why is there a poster for June 24th when there's a game tomorrow?

Cause this week isn't rivalry week!

EDIT: Wait, is this an old poster? There is no game on June 24th.

That poster was from last year

Olivier Brett's show on 91.9 is pretty good. They are talking impact and soccer 6:30 to 7:00 5 times a week. Y'all should listen in.

Sounds like toia is out, Camara and Oyongo in.

Donny has a leg injury of some kind.

I listened to the first 4 episodes this morning. Unfortunately 30 mins is a little short since they have commercials and try to talk to people who call in but it's definitely good and fun to listen to. I've always liked Brett, so I'm quite happy. It's not at a great time but I'm more than fine streaming and listening to it the following day.

I'm in Raleigh, so I don't think I'll be able to see 1 game live this season :/

Games at SS are 1000x better than at the Big O. I can't wait for tomorrow, it almost feels like a home opener (to a certain degree it is I guess). 11 degrees with the sun out will be perfect temperature!

What are your starting XI's for tomorrow? Mine

Bush
Camara-Lefevre-Ciman-Oyongo
Donadel-Alexander
Ontivero-Shipp-Piatti
Drogba

On D, we know Toia is out so both Hassoun and Oyongo will play. Cabrera trained with the team yesterday but I'm not sure he should play this weekend. If he's ready, we have 2 games next week, so I'd wait.

In midfield, I think Dondadel starts with Alexander. Sub in Bernier or Bekker at the 60th for Donadel. The biggest question mark for me, who starts at RM? I expect Drogba to start the game at striker so Oduro is an option for RM. The other options are Ontivero and Venegas. I'm almost certain Venegas doesn't start. I think it'll be Ontivero on the right and Oduro will come off the bench at some point for Drogba. If not I guess Oduro starts at RM, shifts to striker when Drogba is done and Ontivero/Venegas come in at RM.

For me keep the same line-up with Oduro on the right. When DD is tired, Oduro up top and Ontivero subs on the right

Seems like someone officialized the impact TFC rivalry as the "two solitudes derby" with a Wikipedia page:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two_Solitudes_Derby

I like it.

Agreed

Our entire coaching staff is so endearing. They look like a bunch of joe schmos and they're not the most eloquent speakers but you could tell that they have so much heart. The players must love playing for them.

This. i have a soft spot for that Algerian-Moroccan coach, he's always so intense and passionate. The players too all seem down to earth and having a good time
