Ah boys, DichioTFC has brought us to the crossroads that will actually decide wether TFC will slide into oblivion or rise from the ashes like a phoenix... Should Tom Anselmi be fired right now, this year, tout suite, right after the ticket renewal period is over? Should the house be cleaned completely, or should the big fish be allowed to slither away... Should the person really responsible get away with it? Answer the following questions and then comment/vote
Whose fault was it that Mo was hired in the first place?
...Tom Anselmi?
Whose fault was it that Mo was promoted, despite lack of results?
...Tom Anselmi?

...Tom Anselme?
Who is responsible for the most discusting Season Ticket Holder offering in living memory, in all of Major sport?

Who was on major media last week and bumbled and fumbled to try to come up with the number of games included in the season ticket package they are trying to fleece Toronto FC fans with?
...Tom Anselme?
Who has launched a bunch of bogus townhalls and stands in front of everyone continuing to give the city of Toronto (with the most ardent soccer fans in North America) piffle, baffle gab, spin and a few crocodile tears rather than directly dealing with, and fixing the issues at hand:
- continued unbelievable price hikes with terrible product on the field
- forced inclusion of MLS Cup 2010 tickets in a 2011 package
- an overall ticket package that disrespects the fans in too many ways to count...
...Could it be Tom Anselme?
The solution is obvious, and we should do a poll on it now (if I can figure out polls, I will put it up next...)
The solution is:
A 2011 Season Ticket package that includes
only the 17 regular season MLS games for
the exact same total price as last year.
This will allow the fan base to survive intact, feel respected, invigourate ticket sales and launch the "NEW Toronto FC" into the next few seasons.
I do not think that Tom Anselmi is smart enough to realize that this is what is required, so I vote to:
KICK HIS ASS AS SOON AS THE TICKET RENEWAL PERIOD IS COMPLETE
