"It's Not Easy Being Green" . A Vancouver fan said that as he walk past me after the match was over up in Vancouver. So true. After the loss to Hollywood United FC I thought the same thing. The one good thing out of all of this it is bringing the Timbers Army together as fans. The old "So What if we suck" is back and it is about having fun in the TA come match day. The TA are very forgiving fans and the Timbers are lucky to have supporters like this. I am pleased the Timbers Army have that outlook.
What does "It's not easy Being Green" mean to me? Always support the team by going to matches and cheering them on. Look at the bright side of things but be able to express that you are not happy when things are not going well. It's not easy being green after a loss and it's even harder after more. It will never stop me from going to a Timbers match. On Thursday the Timbers play Atlanta and once again I will be cheering the team on. On Saturday I won't be at the match as it does not interest me on not seeing our best players on the pitch. The game is a friendly and is for fun for all the fans but at times it is good to take a break from things.
I had a great time standing with the Timber fans up in Vancouver for the match and enjoyed the chanting. I even sang Wise men Say out of my respect for them. I did not sing it for the team as they did not deserve it after the way they played. It's Not Easy Being Green.
