Starting a new thread and hope to get the support of the group.
I realize not everyone felt comfortable protesting at a game or at Gate 4. some of us are too good looking to use a paper bag (Pete, I'm looking at you!)
I do think we can all agree that MLSE needs to do a couple of things. First, we need a president of football. Second, we would like better communications about the future of this club.
The Plan
i propose letters and emails to Tom Anselmi, the board and owners. contact info shouldn't be hard to find. emails are easy. but i think sitting down and writing a letter shows more passion and commitment.
I'd like to suggest we stick to two points.
1. bringing in someone with North American soccer experience with a proven track record as president.
2. If MLSE is already doing this we'd like to ask for a public announcement that this is the direction TFC is going. we have to be realistic, the hiring process could take time. a public commitment will go a very long way in winning us back.
I'd like to keep the correspondence respectful. If we want to be heard the message has to be delivered properly.
like Marshal McLuhan said, "It's not what you say, but how you say it!"
I will search for the rest of the addresses and hopefully find emails. If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated.

We are good to go. phone numbers for Cope and Turcke are still the same.
Let's aim to start mailing next week. Any thoughts on this?
