I don't even get the TFC emails anymore.

They started sending me Marlies emails so I complained. They did nothing. I complained again. They did nothing. Third time complaining they killed my Leafs/Raptors/TFC and Marlies emails.

TFC buys playoff spot with allocation money. Ticket prices are going up because TFC made playoffs.

Someone screwed up. but if you missed the deadline on friday, why not adjust it before sending out on monday. Could of edited the title ""Let's Douse the Fire" to "even with all the Rain, we got burnt" . They had all weekend to fix.

The other thing for me that was messed up is that I received the 2nd Half Season single game STH presale notification to an email address that I don't have listed in account manager and I never received one to my email that I do have registered. Not sure what the hell happened there but I better keep both active now in case I miss something.

I have had this problem since season one.

The only explanation I can think of is that the other email address is the one I use to make purchases on ticketmaster.ca. But that still doesn't explain the privacy issues of how TFC was able to link these two accounts. I never asked either TFC or Ticketmaster to share info like that.

So for the first few seasons I had to keep asking my account rep to redirect where the TFC emails were going. And after a few weeks it would always revert back to the other email.

This off season it happened again. I asked to have it fixed and now I get no emails. I'm tired of chasing this.

everything about tfc is really quite comical.

when the dc fans came down all they could feel is pity for us. some of them genuinely wanted tfc to make the playoffs because they feel bad for us.

Has anyone watched a game from home this year? They air the same Ty Harden interview EVERY single game at half.

Or the Jacob Peterson one. I've seen that one three times now.

Both of them are awful! I don't get how they just re-use the same half-time show every week! Oh wait...no...I do get it...it's MLSE

Ugh...when you're getting pity from opponents you start feeling like the kids that ride the short school bus.

I think there needs to be a stickied TFC Deficiencies thread to discuss all the bonehead moves made by the organization.

hey fellows, i don't think we need a stickered thread about the deficiencies of MLSE. they do mighty fine work in my humble opinion. and i'll have you know that i heard it through the vineyard that the email department spends hours upon hours figuring out those clever one-liners that grace our inbox every now and again.

"toronto looks to take a BITE out of the big apple?"
LMAFO!! where do these wacky guys think of this stuff?

LOL. That might be bigger than the DeRo threads!

Just off the top of my head I'm thinking of last year's renewal period. Like getting the renewal letter and invoice in the mail the same week of the deadline. :facepalm:

I got it on Monday too. I was surprised, but I wasn't really surprised.

The day they stop doing everything ass backwards is when I'll go and check-up on them to make sure everyone's okay, because it's one failure after another by these guys.

They seem to have had e-mail issues lately. I never got the one for Chicago ... can't recall getting any for a few weeks.

But I just got one now about "Update: Your Single Match Pre-Sale Now Extended To Wednesday at 1 p.m.". However, it's the first I've heard about any sale!

LOL. Sounds like the pre-sale isn't going to well.

I wonder why?

They must be getting very desperate, now they are giving beer and food away to get you in! :D

From an email I received today...

"Coming down with some friends? Join us on the Carlsberg Patio with the Carlsberg Patio Pass. For as low as $51* this limited offer gets you: a ticket to the game, a pre-game Carlsberg sampling event and a $10 food voucher! "

I was wondering where my '2nd half sale' email was, they hadn't sent me anything about it... I guess they felt bad, so they sent me two, to the same address... both the exact same email.

One came in @ 19:42, and another @ 20:28...

:scarf:

Read the small print?

Minimum purchase of 4 tickets.

Don't they know anything? The chant is "Piss on the Fire" not let's "Douse the Fire". Sheesh.

It would help if they sent the email out on time, too...but I think the bigger point is that they are totally out of touch if they do not even know the proper cheer. :facepalm:

I think for a general email like that going often to workplaces, that would not be appropriate. it would be more appropriate to say "Urinate on the Fire"... ;)

TFC vs. NE - Get the mercenaries ready! Toronto attempt to quell The Revolution tonight!
TFC @ Mtl - Toronto straps into their seatbelts as they prepare for Impact
