    I voted 7:30pm but really I perfer the matches to start on any half hour so you don't have to decide, Do I leave early to catch the GO train or Stay 50mins after the game and catch the next GO train?

    I generally prefer the evening games.
    7:30 is good... except on weekdays...

    That said, I wouldn't want TFC going up against NHL playoffs on a Saturday night.

    I don't mind 3PM or 4PM starts. I'd just like to see a couple more Saturday evening games during July & August. With the odd evening game in the summer BMO really does have a different atmosphere.

    Where's the 4pm option...?

    I like 4pm games...

    I also like night games sometimes - but not all the time...

    Sitting in 109, with the sun right in my face, it gets a litle hot in the summer. Night games in July and August are definitely better for my skin!

    ^ I like the variety. I'll take the warm, sunny games when we can get them though.

    agreed - games on the half hour for me.
    Another summer of hope!

    Right now spring and early summer I like the 1pm games, but late summer evening games at 7pm would be great.

    Daytime for me is preferred. The light my LCD gives me during our long winter is not enough. I'm borderline clinically depressed by spring so I want as much sun as possible. The odd night game is also welcomed however. Variety is good.

    Call me crazy, but I prefer my TFC matches to start at the time that's printed on my tickets.

    I agree, start on the 1/2 hour would be awesome...like in year 1.

    Why is there no option for 10:30pm start? I would like to go right home to bed after the match.

    I seem to be having a hard time making it there on time recently.

    Afternoon games = awesome. Beer + warm sunshine...

    Actually, if tv has taught me anything, its that a beer, a coffee and a 7:30am kick off are awesome too. Can we have some breakfast games please?

    i dig the 3 or 4 pm starts...
    i can sleep in and do errands/groceries laundry...still make the tailgate.
    game ends at 5 or 6pm...i can keep the TFC party rolling into the night....
    or i can mix it up.
    the 3 or 4pm timeslot is superior.

    but as Carts said, I like a little variety...a couple of night games.
    I can't say I like the noon and 1pm starts.

    Saturday afternoon around 1 or 2 in spring and fall.

    In the summer I'd love to get some Friday or Saturday evening games to avoid the heat of the day and add a little night time atmosphere.

    So far looks that the overwhelming majority would like in July & August evening games.
