Toronto FC 2:1 Costa Rica U23. 2 really nice goals, hopefully no injuries.
So, that’s the final pre season game in the bag, and with a win, 2 goals and 5th place sewn up. Those things are all in one way or another results, probably the most meaningless bits of info we can get from pre season, but there were definitely some things worth reporting on here as…

Toronto FC Kit And Sponsor Is (Finally) Official
It’s officially here – the new, less maple leaf strewn, still BMO sponsored Toronto FC kit is available for viewing (and of course purchasing). As is usual with things like this in MLS and TFC, the official release of the Toronto’s 2015 kit was little surprise to most, thanks to previous leaks and teases in…

One week to go before the season theoretically begins and there’s one last game for TFC to finish off the IMG tournament. After stumbling through the group stage and finishing in 3rd place, behind the Red Bulls and USL’s Oklahoma City Energy FC, they now play off for 5th overall against the 3rd place finisher…

Selling “Sorry”: TFC and Mea Culpa Marketing
It’s sad, so sad It’s a sad, sad situation. And it’s getting more and more absurd. It’s sad, so sad Why can’t we talk it over? Oh it seems to me That sorry seems to be the hardest word. – Former Watford FC Chairman, Sir Elton John Just when you thought it was safe…

Backup-tastic. TFC to test out their depth against New York Red Bulls.
After now having been able to sorta kinda more or less watch our glorious Reds in action twice, I’m struggling to think of something really nice to say, as the play has seemed as disjointed as the streams have been. It looks like football, you can see what they’re trying to do, but it’s just…

THE STARTING 11: TFC Oscars Introductions
What is the only thing longer than sitting through the next TFC Five-Year Plan? The Academy Awards ceremony! The annual homage to Hollywood’s finest (except the shameful shunning of Scott Baio’s 1982 opus Zapped!) usually runs for a solid thirty hours, testing the most dedicated viewer. A bit like 2014 at BMO Field. Much of…

So Long Gil – This Is Your Time To Shine! TFC Loan Gilberto to Vasco da Gama
To paraphrase the Just For Laughs guy: ‘Mommy! It’s Over!’, so ends the all too short time of Gilberto here at Toronto FC. Sigh. Ol Gil we called him – not because he was poor, not because we didn’t like him; no that sobriquet came from our Simpsons corrupted collective minds as a nod to…

“CAW!” vs “Hoooonk” – Preseason In Full Flight As Reds Face HB Koge
Nothing like a tasty bit of Danish on a Saturday afternoon! Eat around the swan. Around the swan. Yes, preseason is fully underway and if TFC wants to get their hands on the illustrious IMG Sucoast Pro Classic trophy (“The Succo” to its friends) then they will need to show more energy than they did…

Episode 74 – 15/02/19 #2Limited
On the cusp of the real season (and the demise of the silly season), the gang discusses the loan out of a TFC legend, the lack of trialists and some stupid, unimportant “who cares”-worthy topics that aren’t even worth talking about… even though they did. In this episode Duncan’s patriotic displays are equivalent to a…
