Berbatov doesn't run around like an idiot nearly enough to make TFC fans happy.

It can't be Boa Morte. Please don't be Boa Morte.
The washed up ex-Premiership player who reportedly wasn't even impressing in his trial. That can't be the major announcement. They can't be that detached from reality, to think fans would be pleased by that.

That was mine. I thought about using Plata but Harden seemed more accurate.
LOL, I don't blame them.My buddies who are Leeds Utd. Fans don't find these jokes funny at all.
Mariner in as the new coach.
Winter is gone.
You heard it here first.
My first instinct was either: a) Winter is getting canned or b) something underwhelming that leaves people angry at the club for making an announcement of an annoucement (can't believe we're that sort of club now - also: screw you too EG for doing the same thing!)
But after reading the thread, the unnamed club official who said "it will be worth being there" makes me hopeful that it will be a major signing. Whether that person is believable or not, we'll probably never know.
I'm definitely preparing to be underwhelmed. This was posted on Twitter about 20 hours ago:

After 5+ years of this crap a coaching change no longer counts as a major announcement, lol
Also, Asif Hossain tweeting a joke about the announcement two hours ago, would hint to me it's not a "negative" announcement, e.g., somebody getting fired. Just my wild guess though.
Presser will be shown live at 1:30 at http://bit.ly/f9tJgm
that's also mentioned upthread, so you'll have to share whatever increased credibility you get should this actually transpire.
Perhaps they sold the club? pleasepleasepleaseplease
This better be good. I'm gonna 'fake' working to watch this.
For the record, fake work and real work turn out to be the same thing.
Huzzah.
Ken Bates taking out a loan to buy TFC?
"I didn't know he was Canadian"
Gallows humour of course being unheard of ...
From the tone of the tweets from various low-level MLSE staff, I'd guess they actually don't know what the announcement is ... or didn't 2 hours ago at least ...
Molinaro was tweeting that Winter was called to an MLSE board meeting this morning.
Even if this doesn't involve Winter, that's a clue. There was an MLSE board meeting this morning. This likely goes to someone getting walking or transfer papers. And I'd guess Winter moving or leaving is the most likely.
Molinaro tweets that sources said it is not a business/sponsorship announcement. So it is player or staff related.
For the record, 99.9% of TFC major announcements over the past 6 years have been thoroughly underwhelming.
This is what Yves is reporting in the twitterverse.
Andy Welsh has been resigned!
not looking for credibility, just looking for butter.
Yes PLEASE!!
Or we are freezing ST price for 2013, cuz even we realize that we can't get away with a ticket increase after an 0-9 start..
Yves is right.
Winter is gone? lol Why fire him now? lol
TFC is such a joke! I am assuming Steve Nicol is eventually going to become TFC coach.
Facebook picture on TFC page shows table with two chairs and two microphones. Winter is out.
MLSE announces the takeover of Leeds United, as part of the deal sells controlling stake in Toronto FC to Ken Bates!

Supporting TFC and Leeds United : Never a dull moment
Its something to do with CTV since April works for them. But this may not be the big announcement, I hope not.
You bite your tongue!
I am hoping they announce that they're looking at a few players to bring in, maybe a striker, maybe a central defender.
I love that this announcement basically just became this morning's running joke on Twitter.
I hope the reporters just ask "why weren't anselmi/cockring fired instead this time?" and ignore the billionth manager change because it won't fucking matter.
