Great (2nd half) win today, but something bothered me.

What about this "Wall of Honour"? No doubt, Jimmy B. cares about the club and played his best for the team and led the team probably
adequately as captain. However, while Jimmy was an important player, he was inconsistent as best and led Toronto FC to three seasons of failure during his captainship. So why is Jimmy the only player out of the approx 80 that have played for TFC over the last 3 years that are worthy of this MLSE appointed "honour"?

This "Wall of Honour" is a gimmick in my opinion and at worst an insult to us that have supported this team for the past three seasons. Who decided this. If Jimmy is worthy, then why isn't Dichio, Robinson, Guevera or Edu?.

Anyway, personally, I think that a "Wall of Honour" should only include exceptional players that have won trophys for the club.

It turns me off and looks like a cheap gimmick.

Enjoy the win, this has been discussed to death in another thread (right after Brennan was honoured)...

this thread is sooo last week



If Jimmy is worthy, then why isn't Dichio, Robinson, Guevera or Edu?.

Dichio is going up next.

Robinson and Guevera didn't retire here, Edu played a year.
Man... what an illogical statement.
