With Dallas destroying Portland on the weekend....TFC and the Timber have identical 5-11-4 records! Considering that we have a superior goal differnce (yep, go figure!) we would be above Portland in a single table standings situation http://settingthetable.info/ That is remarkable considering where TFC was (and where Portland was) just a few weeks ago! Onward and Upward!
Though, to be fair, until now, we could only get better - it's now technically possible for us to get worse.
Cool. Second worst! It's a very standard for Toronto be second to some US city at something and then nicknaming itself ____North (e.g Hollywood North, New York North etc.). Now we can add Portland North to our list of credentials! (Granted I think that Portland may be further north than we are)
Portland also set a new record for goalless futility on the road, which i assume used to be our record..
Portland recently lost 5-0 to one of other league weaklings, Dallas. So atm they're definitely worse off than us
See...that's the spirit. The last time we played a fellow weakling...we only lost 3-nil to Philly.....we are clearly not the worst team in the world anymore!
This team's been through two win or go home situations on the road in the CCL, a goatyard pitch in Nicaragua, a rice paddy in Panama.....and won. I think the lads will be just fine.
