It's our 25th anniversary. Our silver show, fitting as at least half of the country are currently in long johns.
As the 2012 MLS season draws to a close we look both back and forward.
Our first guest is <i>SoccerPlus'</i> <b>Philippe Germain</b>. We take a look at Montreal Impact's season and what next year may hold in store for L'Impact. With an older squad, we chat about the future talent coming through the Montreal ranks and there's also some interesting news about some changes in the MLS Reserve League that will help these young prospects, and Vancouver's, get MLS ready.
From a Canadian team that maybe punched above their weight, to one that definitely fell way below it, as <i>Goal.com's</i> <b>Rudi Schuller</b> joins us to talk all things TFC. We manage to keep him away from the ledge.
[PRBREAK][/PRBREAK]
There still time for Pierce and myself to look at the MLS playoffs and what was a good weekend for BC's college and university teams, and have a rant about those "franchise bastards" MK Dons. 'Mon the Wombles.
