Toronto FC vs Philadelphia Union: Will TFC Get Up To No Good?

  Winning streak!  Well, they won – that’s the start of a streak, right?  Toronto FC are heading into west Philadelphia (OK Chester) to do some chillin’ out, maxin’ – maybe even relaxin’ all cool – shooting some footballs and hopefully not getting schooled by a couple of guys from the neighbourhood.

The Italian Job(s) – Pondering TFC’s Rumoured Italian Interests

“You’re only supposed to blow the bloody doors off!” – Michael Caine’s character Charlie Croker in the film “The Italian Job” – Most TFC fans two years into the latest MLSE regime change “That’s a spicy rumour!”… And all sorts of other hackneyed Italian stereotypes abound as more winds of change could be wafting through TFC’s front office in the near future....
