MDS on the move: Will the Fury of 2015 be just like the RailHawks of 2011? 15 Sep 2015 Remember that this isn’t the first time that an NASL coach announced he would be leaving his club at the end of a season in order to take an MLS job. Back in 2011, the Carolina RailHawks were absolutely savaging the rest of the NASL, and head coach Martin Rennie was rumoured to be going to a number of MLS teams.
On-the-job experience 17 Dec 2014 The Vancouver Whitecaps got to the playoffs in Carl Robinson’s first season as head coach. But, to do better than another first-round playoff exit in 2015, the team needs more scoring and defensive depth. And the team needs to address its needs while only being able to guesstimate what the salary cap will be after a new Collective Bargaining Agreement is signed...
Here’s to You, Mr. Robinson 17 Mar 2014 He’s been involved with Major League Soccer since he made his Toronto FC debut in 2007; but Carl Robinson’s first few months as a head coach haven’t been easy. From the perception that he was the fallback guy in the coaching search, to dealing with a star player who wanted out, Robinson has been under fire before the Whitecaps played their first MLS match of 2014
Lenarduzzi: Rennie’s dismissal reflects “fine line” between success and failure 29 Oct 2013 “From our point of view, it's not just this season, it's also last season as well,” club president Bob Lenarduzzi told reporters at a press conference at BC Place Tuesday. “In both of those years, we started well, and we tailed off toward the end...there's no doubt there's a fine line between success and what we would deem to be failure.
Camilo claims MLS scoring title with season-ending hat trick 28 Oct 2013 The Vancouver Whitecaps won't be competing for this year's MLS Cup, but they finished their 2013 season in style with a 3-0 win over the Colorado Rapids at BC Place Sunday, thanks to Camilo.
Rocky Mountain low: Whitecaps’ playoff hopes die in the Denver suburbs 20 Oct 2013 “That’s been the frustrating part of this game and, in some ways, our season. I think we’ve become much more expansive, much more entertaining, scored a lot more goals… but we’ve not tightened up well enough at the back.”
Camilo’s amazing brace puts shine on disappointing draw for Whitecaps 7 Oct 2013 “If I was sitting in the stands I think I would be going home a very happy fan, but unfortunately for us their 'keeper makes two world-class saves,” captain Jay DeMerit told reporters following the match. “They should be making a statue of Donovan Ricketts in Portland right now, because he's definitely kept them in it, which is disappointing for us, because that was a game where we should have taken three points.”
Whitecaps 3, Impact 0: Schallibaum erupts over game-changing decision 21 Sep 2013 “He whistled for a penalty and then he was influenced by the fourth official who said he didn't think it was,” Schallibaum said following the game. “For me it's a scandal because a decision was made and then all of a sudden it's not a penalty. It was something that changed the game even though we did not play a strong first half and we were unlucky on the penalty to Hassoun.”
Rennie pleased with the Whitecaps’ effort, but team can’t score in San Jose 15 Sep 2013 The Vancouver Whitecaps didn't lose any ground in a scoreless draw with the San Jose Earthquakes at Buck Shaw Stadium Saturday night, but they didn't gain any either.
Rennie’s lineup changes backfire as Whitecaps lose to FC Dallas 8 Sep 2013 “I feel the quality of goals being scored against us amazing,” Ousted said. “It's the [goal of the week] almost every week right now, and it's frustrating for me. I want to do more. I want to help the team. I want to get some saves in, but when they're putting it in the corners now I just have to tip my hat and work harder, and hopefully get there next time.”
