Ok Guys, this is the time of year when we re-cap what happened this year. What was your favorite part and what were your best memories from our second season(good or bad). I have a few for consideration that might surprise you. (1) Opening game in Columbus, which was meant to be an away game but seemed more like a home fixture with the sea of red everywhere in the stadium. (2) Getting our 1st away win of the season at Mr Beckhams LA Galaxy which was a great team win. (3) The mid-season international call ups and how it effected the team. (4) The emergence of Ibby and being delighted for him when he scored his 1st goal against Chicago. (5) Although the result went against us, but the whole atmosphere on the night we played Montreal in the Canadian Cup was electric and a big credit to the fans. (6) All Star Game at BMO .The MLS wanted to bring their show piece to the best atmosphere in the league, and they got it. (7) When the chips were down, the boys stood together and pulled off a great win in Colorado with the ever impressive Chad Barrett scoring a wonderful free kick. (8) Chivas at home was a game that no one gave us any hope, we had 10 guys away on international duty and had to sign 3 new guys on the thursday prior to the game. The fans did their upmost to cheer us along and there was a slight hope just before half time that we could pull this off. But football can be a cruel game at certain times and we ended up shooting ourselves in the foot and losing 3-1. (9) The New York win was probably our best team performance of the year, just a pity that this game and the Dallas game came just a little bit too late.
So get posting in guys and let me know what you think. I am off to sunny England now to visit family for the festive period, so i would like to wish everyone a happy christmas and a fantastic new year. Thanks Danny
