What the hell is becks doing there?? Yah its a nice stadium alright!! We need grass bad. You know that they arent renting that out to the public...and they dont have the crowds we do, so why the fuck cant we have grass and not rent it out, we obviously have the most money in MLSE!!! Fuck I hate MLSE. Thats why i hate the leafs too. I love my BMO dont get me wrong, but we need some grass...a roof I can do without, but grass will have to be necessary at some point (SOON)

oh yea...and real grass will be installed!


hope that makes you feel better:noidea:



I also like the fact...that the corners arnt open like BMO.. NO reason for that at all!

Only one thing i would of added to this stadium...would of put another roof on the NOrth or south side!

There is also a webcam and pictures on the site. Can't say I'm a huge fan of the roof - there is a picture of it from the inside of the stadium and it doesn't look that slick.

And the roof is canvas. As in, it rains and everyone's still gonna get wet (well, unless they coat it with something).

But overall it's really nice looking. Agree with the non-open corners. Much better.

Exaclty. I can honestly say that I do not envy them AT ALL. I love BMO Field and I think it's a nice stadium.

We should be thankful to even have a stadium, instead of saying "damn MLSE" or "Sack the CSA" ! Well, the last one is alright, but not in this context.

We demand a better team and they've been delivering. We just have to keep on them.

Agreed 100%. I really don't like the fact that one of the league's most profitable clubs is playing out of a venue such as BMO Field. I mean I'm not crying myself to sleep over it all, because BMO Field is still a nice stadum, but when you look at our accomplishments both on the field and off, it seems odd that our facility lacks a roof, real grass, and seating for 30,000.

Well, it will be easy enough to move once they lose their team. Raise anchor and they can sail the stadium to Vancouver.

I'm jealous of all the new stadium designs in the league. Toronto will always be the envy of the league in terms of stadium atmosphere. However, the sad reality is that the architectural design of BMO Field was primarily based on cost effectiveness for mlse. At the very least, the considerable revenue generated by the TFC faithful should be appropriately reinvested in the club so that BMO Field can be renovated to accomodate 25,000-30,000 fans with a roof and a grass pitch!

Maybe if TFC signed a massive DP like Henry or Ronaldinho they could temporarily move into the Skydome, bulldoze BMO and start all over again?

Funny enough Footyfan...it's not that much of a stretch.

If the team continues to grow, a big game like a playoff game or even a Beckham game could fill Skydome easily.

Without a game like that, I firmly believe TFC could fill a 30,000 seat stadium easily on a regular basis.

The stadium looks nice. I wish that we had something that resembles that here. I like BMO quite a bit but it's a fairly plain stadium really. We could use a roof (especially if we make the CONCACAF Champions League) and some grass would be great...oh and filling in the corners and getting rid of the beer garden in the north end and replacing it with seats. That's not too much to ask is it? ;)

Correction: RFK is a 45,000 seater. And we fill it now and then. If we had a footballer like T. Henry or Ronaldinho we'd fill it every game.

I mean, we fill it whenever Chivas (the real one from Guadalajara) comes in CONCACAF games, we fill it when Becks and co. come, etc.

So thinking you could fill Skydome with a big DP isn't crazy.
