Good Monday afternoon Caps fans. I hope you all had a lovely weekend and are gearing up for the week ahead. The Caps got back to winning ways in Austin, turning around a 1-0 halftime deficit into a 2-1 win. It wasn’t a great performance from Vancouver, but I thought they did enough to merit the three points. Outside of Myrto Uzuni’s goal, which came … Continue reading Coffee with the Caps, Monday October 19
The Vancouver Whitecaps came from behind to grab a sorely needed three points, besting Austin FC 2-1 at Q2 Park on Saturday night. The Caps dominated the first half, up until the point that Myrto Uzuni scored a gift in the 40th minute.

Good Monday morning Caps fans. Hope you all had a lovely weekend and are having a good start to your week. Hopefully, your weekend also wasn’t marred by an infuriating display on Sunday night from the Whitecaps, who beat themselves (with some help from Christian Ramirez and referee Victor Rivas) in a 2-1 loss to Austin FC. That defeat will pretty much cede the Supporters … Continue reading Coffee with the Caps, Monday September 14

The Vancouver Whitecaps will seek to run back their domination of Austin FC from last month, facing off against the Verde on their home turf Saturday in the return fixture. The 5-1 pasting at BC Place, capped off with a Brian White four-spot, came on the heels of the Caps’ CONCACAF Champions Cup triumph against Pumas. It set both teams on diametrically different trajectories. The … Continue reading Whitecaps look to duplicate Austin FC dominance in Texas
