Lots of stats for the soccer nuts
MLS Referee Stats@mlsrefstats.bsky.social · yesterdayI first started collecting referee data way back in 2009. I needed something to focus my energy on in what was a time of terrible grief. Now, for the first time, we've finally got a website going where all this work I've done can be seen by all. Introducting mlsrefstats.org
Timbers have three practice games ahead to really get in the groove under Cifuentes. Excited for the final part of this season.

Gutting the Fish and Tifo on top of the two losses seems to have gotten to Schmetzer
Cal Bluechel@calbluechel.bsky.social · 4d agoBrian Schmetzer was asked if Saturday night could push the #Sounders into panic. He adamantly denied panicking, but his venting of frustrations included a bizarre aside about the Timbers Army tifo:
🚨🚨🚨 EL MATADOR is in PDX for the match 🚨🚨🚨 Timbers legend & top USL striker Byron Alvarez is in town for the match! No USL Timbers player scored more goals--or scored more goals against Seattle in particular (7) than Alvarez. He's planning to stop by Legends around 5:30 if you wanna say hi. #RCTID
DON’T FEED THE SCALPERS! (this includes seat geek) #RCTID
Timbers Army@timbersarmy.org · 4d agoHave an extra ticket? Don't feed scalpers & don't make people pay extra fees. If you have tickets you can't use, send them to us at ticketdonation@107ist.org & we'll find them a home, face value or less. Proceeds go to @opipdx.bsky.social. #RCTID
Still looking for a timbers ticket today if anyone has one
Hey kids, big game today. LOTS of people will be looking for tickets. If life happens (you're sick, your partner has to work, etc) & you find yourself w/a spare, pls consider donating to ticketdonation@107IST.org No fees, we sell for face value or less, & proceeds go to charity (OPI). #RCTID
Rich is on a roll here folks. Get it while it’s good, cause it won’t last long.
Bucky Goldstein@efilnikufsin.bsky.social · 5d agoThe Sounders are not all bad. The team visited an orphanage after their arrival in Portland today. “It was heart-breaking to see their sad little faces with blank stares and no hope.” said Jason, age 6. #rctid
Hey #RCTID friends! If you have a ticket for the match tonight and can't make it, please consider donating it to ticketdonation@107IST.org We'll sell it at face value and donate the money to @opipdx.bsky.social If you are looking for a ticket, stop by member services at Legends, we open at 4pm.
My entire life I’ve never called it the FIFA World Cup. I’ve always called it the World Cup. Fans don’t give a shit about FIFA. If national teams showed up for a World Cup tournament not held by FIFA we would all watch it. World Cup is the brand. FIFA is nothing.
#RCTID we need to know if they are olives in or out though
Sounder at Heart@sounderatheart.com · last wk.Never like receiving cancellation notices but at least this one made us chuckle.
“A Mora hat trick would have ranked right behind the double post in the pantheon of “I’d go back in time and kill moments” in Portland Timbers history.”

Cannot be Saturday already? I’m really excited to see the Timbers beat the shit out of the flounders again

Adam Susman@adam-susman.bsky.social · last wk.Vincent Janssen will become the first Dutch player ever to play for Portland in MLS. With more than 160 career G/A, Janssen arrives in Portland on a free. How Martí Cifuentes manages the Kelsy/Janssen battle will be interesting. #RCTID
Tom coming in hot on a Monday

Such a great read. Especially the end about Mora.
