With Whitecaps pre-season launching this week at UBC, Patrick Johnston welcomes Mike Martignago aboard to take a first look at the new season. Is Carl Robinson done spending? Can we really expect anything different this year from last? And what the heck happened with Nosa? Plus, a run through of everyone’s favourite: Mike’s annual look […]

Whitecaps Weekly

Warming up for pre-season

Two games since the last podcast. Two games which tell us a lot. The Caps pulled out a big win over a very poor Galaxy side. And they put up a very brave effort against a very good Tigres side. Mike Martignago and Patrick Johnston break it all down, from goalkeeping, to crowd sizes, to […]

A win, a loss: Things are looking up

Hey now, here’s some news: a Trade! Mike Martignago joins Patrick Johnston to look at the exit of Kekuta Manneh. Tony Tchani is the return. What’s the deal? This is the Whitecaps Weekly on Province Sports Radio.

What’s your favourite: GAM? TAM? JAM?

So the Whitecaps aren’t off to the best start. There’s just two goals in three league games. Oh, and two red cards. And some real struggles moving the ball through midfield. Patrick Johnston and Mike Martignago are back to look at the Whitecaps in their week off. There’s a defence of Carl Robinson in here […]

Red Card Crises and Midfield Missives

It’s week two of the MLS season. Patrick Johnston and Mike Martignago take stock of the Caps’ opening tilts against RBNY and the Philly Union. A CCL win gives hope. A MLS draw prompts worry. Can it really be both? Plus, thoughts on the roster, Brek Shea as a DP and the rollout of a […]

Hey, the Whitecaps are a world top-24 club!

Who are these guys? Patrick Johnston brings Mike Martignago in to launch the 2017 season of the Whitecaps Weekly. What to make of the additions of Brek Shea and Fredy Montero. (And Mauro Rosales!) The Whitecaps have one clear task ahead of them this season: fix the defending. There was a lot which went wrong […]

The 2017 Whitecaps: A Mystery

The podcast is back. We were off for too long. Sounds fitting, sadly, for the end of the Whitecaps’ season. Marc Weber joins Patrick Johnston to look at a team clearly on the verge of transition. First, how did we get here? And then there’s that dustup in training this week between David Ousted and […]

At the end of it all…what do we have?

Remarkably, the Whitecaps still have a sliver of hope. But really, it was dealt the mortal wound in Seattle. Patrick Johnston and Marc Weber begin the process of sorting out what went wrong this year. There are still games to play of course, but the team will surely get a different look this off season. […]

You don’t like attention when you’re in the dumps

The numbers don't lie. The Whitecaps are still in it — but only if they keep winning. They won last week in Columbus to keep hope alive. They won midweek in Kansas City to win their Champions League group. It's been a good week.

Off to Seattle! Off to the Champions League quarters!

The Whitecaps are still in it. It’s a paper-thin margin…but there’s still a chance for MLS playoffs. But it means a win this weekend vs. the Red Bulls and hopefully a good result in the Portland vs. Dallas match on Saturday. Marc Weber and Patrick Johnston break down the lineup and ponder what Pedro Morales’ […]

A true make or break weekend for the Whitecaps and Canada

Really, it’s down to one spot. There are four suitors. The Whitecaps are one of them. Marc Weber and Patrick Johnston take stock of the MLS playoff race, with the Whitecaps set to face the Galaxy in LA. It’s all about the defence. And then getting results. Thankfully the competition isn’t exactly firing on all […]

The West playoff race is a strange, strange dance

The Whitecaps should try the Kansas City Two Step

We unintentionally took some time off. But Patrick Johnston and Marc Weber are finally back.

The Caps need to re-discover their identity

The Whitecaps haven't been playing well and yet they're still in the mix.

The mid-season re-shaping of the Whitecaps

Changes are coming to the Whitecaps, that's our prediction.

Who’s going to grab this team by the scruff of the neck?
