    Considering TFCII has had 1 decent season ever, I would be open to a different approach to looking at talent.

    Nobody finds board members cause they are not public figures.

    His article isn't exactly "fire Manning" but its pretty much "Manning is responsible for this mess" which is more then we have heard...

    Out from behind the paywall

    Molinaro article on Manning

    https://www.tfcrepublic.ca/bob-bradley-bill-manning-tfc-mls-toronto-fc/

    No puff piece...

    Going to say this to whomever needs to hear it


    Molinaro basically asked "why, given what happened, should you be the one to move this team forward"

    So to all those who think it would be...

    A coaching search takes at least 2 weeks, even if you are maintaining contacts out there with people in a "keep in touch, eh?" way. I believe jloome when he indicates they were not sure this was...

    Man, all those now old guys used to be sooo purty....

    Yeh, well..there's a reason why I mute some people's posts.

    There's a point I reach when I know there is unlikely to be a good outcome of a game - or season - where I start looking for sparks for...

    1 game losing streak?

    I would have that issue for a Sporting Director who relied upon that information - a President, not so much.

    Yeh, which is why this discussion is premature.

    BB & BM will be judged based on playoffs.

    Heck, even Voyageurs means nothing really to MLSE.

    I've come to the conclusion over the last few years that people who have steady revenue coming in one way have no problems spending that revenue money on side projects that make them feel good but...

    Reposted from the roster spec thread

    **********

    Ok, lets go back a bit & look at the various FA & the like signings & think about all this for a moment (not going to look at homegrowns etc)

    Soccer reddit is filled with people who don't realise either

    a) they really should be asking themselves the AITA question

    b) even if they did, they would get the AITA response wrong
  14. Uh, there is no real possibility of making...

    Uh, there is no real possibility of making changes now. That article basically says they were going to try a new coach, see if he could work with the group this year & rebuild around that coach next...

    I would note the Piatti bit is not actually quoted - can't really judge at all what was said there. A LOT of that article is Davidson editorializing - its Davidson who talks about Gonzalez & Mavinga...

    Its worked.


    Manning took the July 5th NIE exemption for players with work permits for both countries, made sure players had that (4 Cinci players went earlier this week to NYC to get work...

    FWIW, Manning is the centre face today - not unexpected.

    This is a win for him.

    Hate to tell you this but social media is not paid to reflect the pain of the fans - although every one of them I've interacted with in all sports do in person. That's not what social media for...

    I still think Vanney left because of what LAG was to him in the past, what it would be like to rebuild something & just to be near extended family.

    TFC could have throw 5 million at him & I think...

    I hope you are right.

    I think in a normal world you would be right.


    I still get the feeling management firmly believes this is all due to not being at home. Until tonight, I agreed with...

    Its been awhile since we've been there but I remember the pregame was static & stale & there was no attempt to bring in modern conveniences.

    Manning to me has done really good at the business side & the game experience.


    His two biggest hires though when it comes to the team on the field have not been good enough.

    The TFC bit is kinda weird - he seems to be...

    Is lobbying the CSA to have the Canada v Cuba & Canada v USA games in Toronto a success point for Manning?

    I'd like to here if we are still doing the throwing weight around thing with the academy.

    It takes 6 years to turn around an academy to create a player.
