This thread should be renamed "Please don't give a little butt".

On a positive note, I thought Longstaff was the man of the match for TFC. He seems to be getting better each game.

Could very well be. Johnson is not a hot head.

Ref was utterly incompetent. MLS will not be taken seriously until it employs proper referees. This joker isn't capable of refereeing anything beyond youth house league.

That's because Toronto is not a sports town. Sure there is a small hard core following, but there are a significant amount of people at each match who view going to a game as a night out and don't...

This is what happens when you sign players in their thirties. The Insigne contract was the dumbest contract in TFC history. I hope the club has learned a lesson here, but I doubt it.

Given how Canada is playing today that is understandable. Canada is horrible. Buchanan has regressed. He has only played 33 minutes since January and it shows.

It seems the most positive off season roster change was the removal of Michael Bradley from the field and the dressing room. I wonder if Herdman told Manning that he will only accept the TFC job on...

He will outlive all of us.

Something from the archives, for your reading enjoyment. Boy did this ever age quickly.

My favourite part is where it states that Manning has created "a company culture focused on winning and...

Oldtimer, I went back and reviewed the news story when Manning's contract was renewed the last time and it stated his current contract runs until the end of 2025. At a proper football club where...

This is what happens when you have a board of directors made up almost entirely of Telecom execs, all of whom have zero expertise in the operations of a professional sports organization.

I have been saying that all along. It would explain why Manning is still employed. His contract runs until the end of 2025. Its obvious that he is not being held accountable for on field results...

The bad news is Manning's contract runs until the end of 2025. Does anyone believe he will leave before then? At this point it has to be about not wanting to buy out another contract. If it were...

Bernardeschi's contract runs through 2026. If he is loaned out for 1 year and Juventus decides to return him after that how does this help TFC?

By every reasonable metric Manning has been a disaster as president. The only logical reason I can think of as to why he hasn't been fired is money. MLSE doesn't want to buy out his contract and...

Don't understand how you guys can blame JH who has been in his role for only a few months and has inherited 21 undesirable contracts. The fact they didn't use their 2023 buy out suggests MLSE has...

In my view there is a direct link between the quality of the board and the quality of management hires. A board that has industry knowledge, oversees management performance, and holds management...

Maybe if the Leafs finished last 3 years in a row. Shanahan has been president since 2014 and during his tenure the Leafs have won 1 playoff round. This is hardly successful in a league where only...

A proper board has members who have expertise in the business in which the company operates. A proper board oversees senior management and holds them accountable. A proper board hires the CEO. The...

Edward Roger's specializes in employing fraudsters. See Shapiro, Atkins, Shanahan.

The MLSE Board is made up of 8 people. Three execs from Roger's, three from Bell, a lawyer, and Larry T. There is no one on that board that knows anything about professional sports management. ...

The fact that TFC didn't utilize their one contract buy-out in 2023 leads me to believe that MLSE has turned off the taps. I don't expect to see another DP come in until one of Insigne or...

You could make an argument that "Teflon" Bill Manning was the single worst appointment in TFC history. He inherited a championship team and essentially burned it to the ground. TFC is now nothing...

The fact that Manning still has his job is totally on the MLSE Board, which is utterly useless and incompetent. It tells you how much they value TFC. As long as MLSE owns the club I expect more of...
