    Default So you think you know your TFC? (Trivia thread) Matchday 5

    Rules:
    1. NO SEARCHING INTERNET ALLOWED! Do not scroll down the thread until you answered the questions.
    2. Every question is either directly, or indirected related to TFC, current or former TFC player.

    It's for fun, and you can keep track of how you do by yourself. It's also easier if you figure out the theme of this week's questions.

    1. Who assisted on Danny Dichio's first ever goal for TFC?

    2. TFC has won only once away at Dicks's Sporting Park in Colorado, a 1-0 win. What year did this win happen and who was the goal scorer?

    3. Nick LaBrocca was acquired by Colorado from which team and for what ex TFC player?

    4. Which TFC academy player did Colorado acquire in 2011, who was subsequently released by end of the season?

    5. How many USMNT caps does Marvell Wynne have?

    Good luck!

    The 1-0 Toronto- Colorado game that I remember is the one that was the same weekend as the World Cup finals in 2010. At BMO. Fuad scored.

    Wow this was hard! Only reason I get #1 was from very recent discussion on the boards (buddle - thanks to some post by exile). And while I most likely witnessed that rare road win cannot recall the scorer. Might have to change my user name as I barely deserve 1/5 score. Thanks for posting, always interesting to reflect back. Cheers!

    Or however it's spelt.


    Edit: It was also vs Columbus, if i recall correctly... Opened the scoring in a 2-1 loss... Ended that disgusting goal drought.
