Ah, great news (2 new defenders), the match on Saturday was pretty dire. And a new striker as well earlier this week "Danny Dichio from English club Preston North End".

Danny Dichio is not in the English Premiership though, so don't expect a 1st class performance from him, and he is going on 33 now. Let's hope they get their act together and start playing well anytime soon

nfitz · 2007-04-19, 06:40 PM

No, but he's was in a Division 2 (or whatever they are calling it this week) team that is still in contention to be promoted to the Premiership in a few weeks.

Sure, he's at the end of his career, but it's not like MLS is Division 1 quality! I'd think a top Division 2 team would be more than a match for most MLS teams.

True....even guys in the Dr Marten's league could ruffle a few feathers in the MLS.

TO FC needs to step it up, the way they've been playing lately is abysmal

Not alot is expected from the toronto fc for the next 2-4 years.There building for the future.

Bruno Landry · 2007-04-28, 06:16 PM

It wasn't in HD, but CBC did a really good joob. It will be nice to see what they do for the World Cup. And next year, without the CFL, MLS games will be in HD on CBC.

Let's hope so eh

They selected to go the slow route rather then be play off bound in year 1 or 2.They would be happy if they get 10 wins this year.

canad · 2007-04-29, 01:44 PM

Hopefully not 2-4 years, I'm already starting to get turned off by the horrible play and players.. MSLE has to make atleast 1 decent signing hopefully

Don't forget there an expanson team.They had 2 choices one two go out make some major deals and be a play off bound team and challenge for the cup right away.Or build for the future they are going the build for the future route.Msle is more interested in making sure the team has a solid future in toronto on and off the field.

I thought the last game was a significant improvement over the game last Wednesday - they actually looked like they were in contention. And even last Wednesday's game looked a lot better than the week before - they at least had some sprited, if not flawed, attacks.

Had the defence been a bit better on Saturday, they would have at least drawn - there's no way Johnson should have been where he was by himself!

I don't understand this build for the future.. If any of these players were any good they most likely wouldn't be playing in MLS right..
