Voyageurs Cup schedule released.

So, it’s a big day for soccer in Toronto, are you all excited? A plane is indeed arriving from Italy, as many of them do every day, TFC are trying to turn ‘Seba’s arrival into a big thing, I’m intrigued to see just how much of a crowd their prompting will induce, obviously him signing was a big deal, him arriving early is a big deal, but him stepping off the airplane? meh. Anyway, that’s not what...

Atomic Ant Marches In Early: Giovinco to TFC for the start of the season.

This should come as no surprise to anyone really. There has been plenty of talk recently of Toronto FC ‘hoping’ to have Sebastian Giovinco in Toronto as soon as possible, of Giovinco’s agent in talks with Juventus about getting him out of his contract.

Finally it’s here, the first day of camp, a time to be all excited about re-uniting with old friends and making new ones.

Toronto FC officially sign Damien Perquis

We have another new player in through the revolving door, as this morning the signing of Damien Perquis was announced by Toronto FC. Unlike Jozy Altidore or Giovinco, there was no great ceremony to this one, merely a press release, an article on the website and a photo of him holding up the shirt (number 24, and he clearly has a lot to learn as he appears to be smiling.)
