    With roster instability, Wilmington had to look for other MLS teams for emergency loans but too late to stop their losing record. They are 12th in USL and I think they just fired their head coach.

    I realize TFC's interest has to come first, but it's not been a good affiliation relationship for Wilmington
    The international transfer restrictions haven't helped either. If Wilmington was in Canada, Q wouldn't have been recalled.

    Yep. This is the worst thing about it. I think it was going well until they realized they couldn't send players back and forth anytime they wanted like they could if it was two teams in the same country.

    looks like they just signed him. He is a product of our academy and i believe a few of the academy guys were training with them the past month but this is not a TFC player going to Wilmington it is a TFC academy player signing for someone else.

    I assume this was arranged via the front office and Wilmington

    It it is your lucky day, there is video of the mess that was the Hammerheads/Orange County on Saturday night in USL Pro action, 3 read cards, the coach coming down and kicking the ball away from an opposing player on a corner kick attempt, a bench clearing brawl that saw everyone dash for the locker room and goal in the 100th minute. To kick it all off it Military appreciation night with a bunch of kids in the building. For your viewing enjoyment being the proceeding at the 90 minute.

    When the league has to make a special statement after your match, that's usually not a good thing.

    Yup. He won the game for them. Plus new goalie was outstanding making a few world class saves.

    I made it to a WH home game on Wednesday, being down in the area for a visit. Ending in a 0-0 draw vs Orlando City. Notable for OCSC, it clenched the reg season top of the table position for them. A win would have gained a playoff berth for WH, but they got the remaining point they needed tonight at Dayton.

    The stadium complex they play at is not too bad. I've seen a lot of those types of multi-sport complexes and I thought it was decent. Didn't get an official attendance. Wasn't packed but seemed like a big crowd to me.

    I know it's unlikely that the affiliation deal will be continued if the latest rumors are true, but I did enjoying following WH some this year.

    8,000 fans saw Wilmington get a lesson in footy, lost 4---1

    A very good experience for the TFC boys tho I would think.
