Maybe I just haven't heard, or, it hasn't been announced yet...but, any word on whether, or not, MLSE is doing something special for the supporters/fans on Saturday?

Hopefully more tubs of vaseline. I think we're all getting pretty raw at this point.

I'm expecting / hoping for another toque... I've gotten great wear out of most of the free toques from seasons past...

Either that or a bottle of Jack Daniels - that keeps us warm & numbs the pain at the same time...

Yeah, I figured it might be a toque. The JD would definitely numb the pain. You'd think after the guarantee...make that "THE GUARANTEE" they could come up with something else. That said, there is still a 1 % chance we could make the post season (according to the experts) and I'm damn well clinging to it!!!:scarf:

We probably will be by half time. We should be down 2-0 or so by then.

If TFC had any sense of humour they would sign them up as a sponsor.

I don't think this directly counts but RealSports tweeted this out "Headed to @BMOField (https://twitter.com/BMOField) for the @torontofc (https://twitter.com/torontofc) game this Saturday? @RealSports (https://twitter.com/RealSports) Apparel will have $30 jerseys, $5 player tees and more great deals!" I have a feeling its mostly Defoe product but if you can get a jersey of a any team for $30 it cant be that bad. I am assuming its our current home jersey as it is going to change this year. I don't know, I guess we will see.

Hopefully they don't give away toques to anyone with Montreal Impact colours otherwise we will see them thrown, on the ground or even in the toilet. I am sure some traveling fans may actually want it as a souvenir but that may only be a minority of their fans. TFC fans should be getting them only...they only have so many to give out. I went to an away game at NYRB and they were giving the fans some nice NYRB drawstring backpacks but they wouldn't give me one because I had on a TFC shirt. I just wanted it as a souvenir for my trip but I understood as well being an away fan. Hopefully the people handing them out get some rules regarding this.

Fan appreciation for me would be for them to show us some youth development bring up some academy kids.
Show us that there is some hope, is the academy is getting stronger?

What? You don't like Timbit's soccer with its perpetuation of the myth that all you have to do is "Kick the ball!!!" and all will be well?

I was thinking the same thing, but, I'm pretty sure they will be enterring the stadium together (one would hope with a security escort) at a specified time. So, SHOULD be easy to differentiate between them and us.

I can't believe they play without keeping score now... It's pathetic...

And we wonder why kids are so spoiled these days - even sports no longer teaches them the lesson of "you don't always get what you want!"... Sad...

That being said - I want my free toque Saturday... It's become tradition! :)

Yeah, we could start a whole new thread on that topic. Another blow to Canadian football (soccer) development. Make sure everyone plays nice and gets a participation ribbon, though.

This kind of shi, gets me angry, they can stick their fan appreciation up their fucking ass, win some meaningful games, that is how you show appreciation to the fans. Fuck all these marketing/PR gimmicks.

C'mon trane, tell us how you really feel;)
I see where you are coming from, though. Many years of frustration takes it's toll.
I think the best fan appreciation the TEAM could provide would be to come out without Bradley and Hagglund, and, show some guts and determination (which both of them have) and pull out a victory over Montreal. Then do the same against New England. These two matches will show who wants to be there.

I can't tell if you guys are being serious or not. You seriously think this will make Canadian football development worse? Like it was doing so well before we wouldn't want to upset anything.

First of all, the kids still know who won. They don't need a scorekeeper to count by one. This needs to be reinforced for people who are against the change.

The idea behind eliminating scores/standings is to go away from the previous mentality of clubs to chase meaningless trophies by only playing the biggest/fastest players. That wins games in the short term but it doesn't develop football skills. Case in point, our national team. We have a huge soccer participation rate but how many technically skilled players have we produced in the last 30 years?

The winning at all costs mentality might seem like a good idea but too often it comes at the expense of teaching football. Oh and by the way it's gotten us nowhere on the national level. At a young age especially, kids should be focusing on developing their technical skills and enjoying the game. Parents and coaches obsessed with winning the U-8 championship is what's ruining our development pathway.

Good Point... And something they should definitely think about...

+ If we shit the bed, lots of those hats might end up on the pitch...
+ If we score a late-winning-goal, lots of those hats might end up on the pitch...
+ If Montreal supporters get them, lots of those hats might end up on the pitch...

AKA - no matter what happens, lots of those hats might end up on the pitch... LOL
