    Default TFC Jersey Star

    MODS: Delete if this has been brought up already.

    So I noticed in the photo gallery on the TFC website that there will be a star over the TFC logo to represent Last years NCC win.

    Does anyone know if it will only be on the NCC Jerseys or will it be a permanant fixture on thier kits.

    There was a huge discussion about how it shouldn't be done a few months back. Although it looks cool, I don't know if it should be done. A league title/MLS CUP is one thing, a 3 team tournament is another.

    I would have liked a Maple Leaf under the logo, guess that didn't happen. A star is a bit much, I agree it should be League titles.

    A patch would be nice, with the number of titles we have won, like the Champions League -

    hmmm... didn't see that picture before.

    Looks kinda nice.
    So this will be on the jersey all season?
    I would hope it's only for the Voyageur Cup.

    I like it. Fits nice with the TFC logo too.

    More please!

    Also - now that MLS has added the Scudetto to the jersey of the cup champs and TFC is adding this star, do you think other leagues in NA will start recognizing the champions from the past season? I can see the NHL changing the cup champs NHL logo to gold or something like that...even thought the stanley cup is silver.........either way - could TFC/MLS be creating another trend?

    although im proud and happy we won i think a patch is a bit much, especially as there are only 3 teams involved

    I hope TFC wears that during the NCC, just to rub it in to Montreal and Vancouver and their fans.
    TORONTO FC, 2017 MLS CHAMPIONS!!! (Still the greatest in league history!)

    Don't think it'll do to much to Montreal fans - they can have one over their logo too...

    Carts...

    You are correct... although, there is on difference... Toronto's crest is sexy, and the Impact crest is shit.

    Would be cool if the NHL did up some sort of year long cup recognition. (team who wins cup gets a gold NHL logo, while everyone else gets the silver logo).

    I agree it would be a nice touch.

    This shows the SAD state of the team.... i think they should also put a # 12 on the jersey too.. to give us a sense of accomplishment in last year's standing...

    This is SO house league... Stars should only be put on jersey for big accomplishments.. like MLS CUP or winning Concacaf championsleague... not a roundrobbin that if you win you qualify for a play off match to enter concaff championsleague ( that other MLS teams enter dirrectly)... do you realize how lowly that is...?? We might as well put stars on our jersey if we win the charleston cup too.

    I know we are all hungry for glory... but that doesn;t mean we have to become pathetic...

    drop the 'holier then thou' attitude
    one of them did manage to beat us before at our own stadium
    and the other drew us at BMO and took the title away from us.
    grow up will you, have some acceptance that there is hardly any difference in the level of play between MLS and USL1 already. I know I don't.

    As I said before, I don't like the star. A Canadian shield or something for whoever is the current NCC champion would be better, ala Scudetto in Italy.

    My only suggestion would be that they make the leaf inside the star gold instead of white....

    Might be nice to see a little gold in the TFC jersey

    A Maple Leaf would of been better in my opinion.

    Stars for League Cups, Maple Leafs for NCC.

    If that time ever comes, wouldn't that be a problem you'd be more than happy to deal with?

    then perhaps you should have just said it in that statement rather then leaving the door wide open like you did

    If TFC wins the NCC this year, I really hope they do not add another star for next year. I don't mind teams wearing a star because they won a championship but I don't teams adding stars for every championship they win because it will take a bit of the lustre away of having one (at least it does for me). If they do something like: 1 title=1 star, 5 titles=2 stars, 10 titles=3 stars, etc, I wouldn't have any problems about it.

    I dont see what the big deal is, i think it looks good!! But i do agree that this kit should ONLY be worn during the CC and not for league or champions league play

    Going into this years tournament there will be a clear reminder of the embarrassing way to lose a game (for MTL) and not to pop champagne till its over (for Van City)

    1-Only for Nutrilite games
    2-Agree that until we win 5 or 10 Can Championships no more stars.
    3-If we lose this year, MTL and VAN are going to make a whole lotta fun of us.

    This is my problem. Lets say TFC do well and win 5 NCC, definitely a possibility with only 3 teams in the competition, then the shirt is going to be bombarded with stars!

    maybe on the Fifth championship, they get a single gold star
