One thing no one talked about if these games will be on TV. It will be interesting to see if MLSE owned channel (Gol TV) will broadcast TFC II games (or at least home games). Or maybe TSN2 or Sportsnet One/360 will pick an odd game here and there since there isn't much going on during summer for sports content.
Well, USL-pro games are all freely broadcasted on youtube. Though if the idea is to promote the team further, being broadcasted on tv won't hurt.Originally Posted by TFC07
they already own the channel, so i don't see why they wouldn't air their home games.
Yeah agreed.
I would think they would air them on GolTV because now having all the first team games on TSN/Sportsnet has really cut into what GolTV offers during the summer.
It would all come down to cost and if they view it as worthwhile programming. GOL is many ways is a diminishing channel, TL at times even mentioned if it fit into the long term plans. Ever since Bell and Rogers moved in, the in house channels role great changed with all the live games being pulled off them.

@KurtLarSUN: Toronto FC II will open its home slate against the Rochester Rhinos on May 23 in "Toronto".
First game Mar 28th away to Impact
Road trip anyone !!!
I am a little disappointed that TFC II's home opener is not until May, which will be at BMO Field. They could have used many suitable facilities for the USL Pro level in the city. York, U of T, Lamport ?

Montreal's logo and name for their USL squad is better than the MLS team.
So home game for TFC 2, is at BMO field ?.....see TFC facebook, same as our home game vs Portland..........no Vaughn home opener , interesting .
The stadium in Vaughan won't be finished until July 1st.
They were just announcing the home openers for each team, the full schedule comes out Monday. For TFC II their home opener is at BMO with the stadium in Vaughn not being ready for July. Believe they said the first game there would be July 1.

They don't we play at home may 10th, they play at home may 23rd
Ok I'm blind.
Not March May.
Anyhoo.....does this mean a double header, cause TFC is playing Portland at home that day?
2 out of 3 of those have schools that use those fields and don't have any desire to rent them out. Lamport maybe.

Tfc play portland on the 22nd no?
If so be like a stay behind reserve game of old
L1 Ontario played at York this year. The Toronto Rush, Pro Ultimate frisbee team plays at Varsity. I am just saying it would have been nice to have some games with the Reds on the road for two months.

Weird, just saw this, TFC 2 play in Vancouvers home opener in April...

Not really that weird. USL Pro is broken up and they do play other teams. That is just the Eastern Division's Home openers. The Western Home Openers I haven't seen..

Last time I looked Vancouver was on the left coast ??
This is crazy, TFCII has two months of away games before they get their first home game!? Well I guess we don't care if TFCII makes the USLP playoffs, but it's going to be hard on the kids. I thought the whole point of USL pro was that they won't have as hard a travel schedule.
Lol, well, I guess they have to get use to the jet lag sooner rather than later.
I think I need a nap.
I like the synergy between our two clubs, right down to the extended road trip to start the year.
It seems as if they were more eager to get the team than a place to play. A bumpy start to their franchise won't make much difference in the long haul and to their intended purpose but one does have to note the 2015 start to the various levels of this team are far from ideal.

Well I stand corrected. Uni's have opened their doors to sports that don't want priority. Sorry Argos. You still lose out.

Something my friend and I were discussing while watching the Chelsea/Man City game today...TFC has 4 keepers. Who are your 2 keepers for the main team, and who are your 2 for TFC2?
And why?
