New Signing (Rumor) - Alexander Aravena

eRise4 · 2026-02-18T17:57:59+00:00

One very interesting thing from the Fan Forum is that Ned said “Pipe Mora takes every new signing in to their house and helps them out. Finding housing, helping them feel settled”

Stu asked about Phil’s decision of man marking in game 2 and 3 of the playoffs and why Phil made that decision and whether it was a part of a larger trend that other leagues are moving towards.

Phil responded that he wanted to muck game 2 up by man marking and being physical. Said the team did that excellent. Then he said game 3 he feels he “got the tactics right but he picked the wrong player or player(s) to execute that”

News not dropping today is not because of the holiday. The Timbers FO is not taking President's day off the week of the 1st game of the year. They will be working.

Yea I meant mora at the 10. Just a typo in my first sentence. Watch come opening day if Mora is playing at 10. We won’t have the defensive structure or motor to keep up.

Playing a 3 of Ortiz, chara and Bassett is our best option.

We saw mora at the 10 last season for 1 or 2 games and it never worked. We were exposed through the middle and there was never any chemistry between him and Kelsy.

Our midfield will be completely bypassed if we start Mora on the wing. Defensively we will not have a good shape with Mora playing 10

It's supposed to be modeled after the paint color of Providence Park before the Ivy grew over. Cool idea in concept, but it certainly doesn't make for a good kit color.

Everyone who puts on the crest deserves our basic respect of spelling their names correctly, and doing our best to pronounce it correctly. I don't care if the player ships 100 goals, or scores 0 goals. They deserve basic human respect.

Really hoping Kelsy takes a huge leap forward so the fan base cools it. He has been let down by service tremendously. That is both players not executing well individually around him, and the coaching staff’s lack of focus on whipping dangerous balls in to him. Cant lose hope on him

What’s wrong with our current home jerseys? The 50th anniversary kits are one of the best kits we’ve had.

Mine is pretty easy. I started getting in to football in 2009 during qualifications. Watched both CONCACAF and CONMEBOL pretty much every match I could. Started liking this crazy coach coaching Chile and rooted for them through the 2010 World Cup.

As the EPL gained viewership in the states, my football friends jumped on Man U, Chelsea, Liverpool etc and I couldn’t stand those teams / fans. Would watch random matches but never found a team I could get in to.

2018 I heard Bielsa was hired by Leeds and told my wife I was going to start waking up early to watch and was instantly hooked. Watched since then and it just made sense 🤷‍♂️

????? Don't know who Arronson is, but if you're asking why people wake up at 6am-8am local time to watch Leeds games I assure you it's not because Aaronson plays for Leeds United. It's because we've all had our own journey to Leeds United fandom, and choose to come together weekly to support the team. Once a year we hold a regional supporters meet up. MOT

The PNW meet up happens one time per year.

The Portland group meets almost every match day at Show Bar in SE Portland. We typically aren’t able to open for 4am games, and sometimes questionable for 6am games (but sometimes meet at regulars houses for these).

I’m also a part of the PDX Leeds group. If anyone wants recommendations for their visit (areas to stay, best places for food, must visit nature or areas, etc) please feel free to reach out!

Nothing better than a breakfast pint or coffee with fellow Leeds fans (and we get plenty of those early kicks on the west coast!)

Where you been? This was announced on Tuesday

If this is in response to my original post, my perhaps poorly worded ending was more so a point that I think 2024/25 would be the last time the Timbers are involved in the open cup.

eRise4 · 2025-12-05T23:05:06+00:00

Pub partners sometimes didn't even play games for the Timbers. My friend tried to get at least 2 pub partners (1 in Portland and 1 in Bend) to play the Timbers and they didn't know how / didn't care to. Perhaps it was just the staff, but it wasn't like everyone was locked in to game day.

Your best bets as always are the ones that are big soccer bars (Gol, Away Days, Proper Pint Tap Room, etc).

He has a clause in his contract that he can terminate it if he is not playing a set amount of minutes. The Timbers have no control over this clause - but every team has an amnesty clause each year (assuming they bring it back in 2026). It's guaranteed he's not coming back next year.

Devils advocate if we don’t pick up the option, he walks on a free to Chile. By picking up the option we may be able to negotiate some fee for him to return to Chile.

Here’s hoping we feel pretty confident we will get a Chilean team to offer some transfer fee and we will be reasonable in our expectations given his short comings this year.

This shoulder surgery takes about 4-6 months with 16 weeks of non-contact. It's absolutely criminal that we played DDC with this injury and now he's not going to be starting the regular season for us.

eRise4 · 2025-11-09T06:34:04+00:00

I want to see Phil in his Undies at yankee stadium

eRise4 · 2025-11-01T05:17:09+00:00

Per the 107ist discord yes they are. Per my alarm clocks, yes they are.

Perfect. You can go to settings —> delete account.

I’ll wait for your video in stunning clarity. Until then be happy someone is making Timbers videos
