  • 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 vs Costa Rica u23: The fight for fifth

  • Up and Atom! Reds “unveil” Giovinco

    Well that was an odd little presser wasn’t it? It wasn’t the dog and pony show of the Jermain Defoe/Michael Bradley event a year ago. It wasn’t the “we gotta clear the room in five minutes for the maid” production they put on for Jozy Altidore a week ago. Actually it wasn’t like many player…

  • THE STARTING 11: Differences Between Jozy Altidore and Jermain Defoe’s Press Conferences

    Has it really only been a year? We’ve had so many good times over the past twelve months that time has just flown by! Like that time in Seattle! Remember that? And… that other thing. The one with the thing. Good times. I try not to look backwards too often but this past Friday’s Jozy…

  • Altidore arrives, Chapman signs, 5 get drafted. Busy day for TFC

    Well, it was quite the day for Toronto’s squad building attempts, at the DP end, and at the probably USL Pro side as well, one could plausibly call it a SuperDay. First up before all the SuperDraft nonsense (for all the highlights of that, click here.) there was the signing of Jay Chapman. Highly touted…

    It’s not official yet. The necessary winks and nods have to be exchanged and the rules massaged in Uncle Don’s Rub ‘n’ Tug Parlour until the desired happy ending is arrived at in an explainable fashion (Hold on, according to this update from Gareth Wheeler, MLS tried all that sort of thing to get Altidore…

    Episode 69 15/01/14 #combineHarvester

    We’ve got a brand new TFC podcast for you, and we’re still in speculation and wishing mode as the gang discusses potential signings, good and terrible, as well as the MLS Combine.  In this episode, Mark gets lost over the potential of a derby prize, Kristin gets lost over the simple math of ratings systems,…

      WARNING: This article contains some explicit assumptions. Reader discretion is advised. While no one in the past, present or future universe will ever describe MLSE as paupers, the final move in the Bloody Big Deal may have come down to a case of beggars can’t be choosers.

  • TFC’s Jermain Man No More

    So it’s official.  Well almost official – Toronto FC and Sunderland have yet to make official statements but from TSN’s report last night (and other subsequent reports), Defoe is out the door and trading one black cat for another.   The question of whether or not Jozy Altidore comes here is just an MLS rule…
