John Carver on the move?


It's been a pretty boring off season so far. Seat relocation has started for those that decided to renew season tickets.. WoooHoo..

Overseas I found some interesting TFC related news.

Seems our old coach is in the running for the Peterborough united job. "The Posh" (Peterborough united nickname) play out of London Road Stadium in Peterborough. They are in the Championship after being promoted last season and are currently struggling in the new division.
They have no manager currently and Carver is still out of a job. Darren Ferguson just stepped down as manager on November 9th.

I don't understand how a club with a manager that was able to lead them to successive promotions from League Two to the Coca-Cola Championship is shown the door? Why would you replace the guy with a quitter?

essentially what "the Posh" plan on doing is get rid of a guy they have had for 3 years and shown them tons of success to replacing him with a dirty quitter who achieved nothing in the MLS?

Come on... who's kiddin who?

Coach says backup goalkeeper 'deserves a chance'....


There is a story in today's Toronto Star that indicates Brian Edward's is going to be the man this weekend.

Looks like Edwards for FC's last stand

This should be a good thing. I like Edwards in net right now only because he has played reasonably well over the past 2 games. It was only last season that John Carver thought so highly of Brian Edwards that he awarded him the starting job over Gregg Sutton. This distresses me a little cause I don't know how I feel about any of Carver's decisions.

Also I found out that The Red Bulls will honor forward Juan Pablo Angel and defender Mike Petke for reaching milestones, after the team’s season finale against Toronto FC Saturday.

I can not believe they are honouring people after having such a shitty season. Couldn't they wait till next season. Unless of course Angel has played his last MLS game leaving room for much rumoured Thierry Henry.


Speaking of rumours I heard a good one today. Apparently Jeff Cunningham is rumoured to head to Reading. This is the guy that EX-TFC coach John Carver said "I am thinking, ‘How did he score 99 goals?’ That’s what I thought.’"

Like I said at the top. I don't know how to feel about Carvers decisions...
