    To be fair to TFC, we haven't lost 8-0 to anyone yet if that's the standard for getting a refund.

    IIRC Seattle gave their fans a refund after getting shelled one game
    “Years have gone by and I’ve finally learned to accept myself for who I am: a beggar for good football.

    I go about the world, hand outstretched, and in the stadiums I plead: ‘A pretty move, for the love of God.’

    And when good football happens, I give thanks for the miracle and I don’t give a damn which team or country performs it.”

    -Eduardo Galeano

    Yeah they did, I definitely remember that.

    EDIT: actually it was a credit towards the following years season tickets: http://www.soundersfc.com/post/2010/...ticket-holders

    why should MLSE give back money?


    You don't have to give your money if you feel you're not getting a good return.

    Nobody said they should.

    It's simply a gesture of good will, saying sorry for being complete absolute fuckheads, which we are saying we'd appreciate (while admitting it's a big bloody not gonna happen.)

    When I sick of TFC's bullshit after season 5 I decided not to renew and instead spent that money on a trip to LA & Seattle for the first two away matches of season 6. Money well spent IMO.

    What about a broken verbal promise from Tim L ? He guaranteed playoffs before the season. He should give all SSH a discount next year for failing.

    I agree Tim needs to come out and do something at the very least follow up on his stupid guarantee.

    I won't miss him when he's gone.

    Our discount will be a 5% price increase instead of 10%.

    It's a lovely article and gesture and all, but did anyone else catch the description of the charity they're donating to? A place for kids with "life-shortening conditions for which there is no known cure"?? I'd love to meet the guy who came up with that one. Must we sugarcoat everything?
