Decent numbers for TFC...
But Chelsea dropping by around 100K viewers must be related somehow to being shown on Sportsnet One...
And one thing that mystifies me...Stoke/Spurs was supposed to be shown on Sportsnet Ontario, so how come I saw West Ham/Bolton?

We have lots of historical data in the TV ratings thread.

TFC typically draw 100-150K on CBC on Saturday afternoons (it goes up if there is a programming link to an event such as NHL playoffs or a WC game).
My guess is, given the relatively early start, and the fact it was a summer weekend, this game would normally have been around the 100-125K mark.
A bump of only 50-75K in viewers has to be very disappointing.
