Good article, if you want a quick an easy overview of our squad issues, this is a great place to start.

Are we going to be bringing in any real difference makers?

They did say that they wanted to bring in 2 or 3 more players that were able to play right away.

Article on TFC's Manager of Operations. I'm friends with this guys old roommate back at Brock and met him on a couple of occasions. Nice guy and interesting to hear about some of the behind the scenes activities from his perspective. The comment about the arrests in Houston seems a little weird though.

Not weird at all and hints at Soolsma's departure. Houston wasn't a one off....

The exact quote:


If a player gets in trouble with the police, Wray hopes he is the first person called. It doesn't always work that way.
"In Houston that didn't happen," he said, referring to a run-in last season with police by Luis Silva and the now departed Nick Soolsma and Miguel Aceval.
"Had I been the first person, you could say that I don't think anyone would have even known about the Houston problems that we encountered."
On his own, Wray says he is not a very good traveller. Just getting to the airport raises his blood pressure.


I think what you're saying is that there is a potential for even more embarrassing stories about TFC floating around.

The one I would like to know, if true, is if the parents of TFCA or GTA players are opting to send their sons elsewhere other than TFCA.

YES,THEY DO,not in big numbers but they do opt to stay where they are or go to Europe and South America.

... although the coach knows how to yell at the ref in English. :)

It is interesting, you rarely see these kind of details of all the people who work behind the scenes... everything tends to focus on the players. Thanks for sharing this.
