Great write up, by all three! (Although, I was hoping for more excitement than just reinforced dread, but that's where we are right now with #VWFC)

It's a long thread of random thoughts. #VWFC
Here's a few random thoughts from a #VWFC supporter who doesn't know much about anything:
- After hearing Axel, I am now genuinely concerned. While Garber has made big noise for a good spell, it gave me the "gimme gimme gimme" feels. This did not.

The newsletter will come out this week - likely by Thursday. While I'm still trying to process all that happened this season, as well as this weekend, there's also a flurry of @whitecapsfc.com updates over the next few days that might help us look ahead to 2026. #VWFC

While I’m saddened by today’s result, and found myself with high expectations going into the match than I’ve ever had, it’s hard to consider this @whitecapsfc.com season anything but a success. This team. These supporters. Up the Caps!
Had a taste today. Next season I want it all. #VWFC

I’m watching here at home on TSN. Decided against Apple TV as I imagine they’d glaze Messi all match. Is a shame TSN will be doing PxP from a studio. #VWFC

Wow... that's some low-class shiznit from #InterMiami to cut out STHs like that. Had NYCFC won, @lyteforce.ca would've been in his usual seats - so it ain't an MLS thing. All IMFC. #VWFC
