    Those pictures with the new red cladding were taken 5 days ago - I find it hard to believe they spent time putting the red up only to replace it less than 2 weeks later

    The Argos logo on the South Side was just a rumour stirred up by some desperate members of their fanbase. It was red all along.

    A silver Argos logo can easily be placed in that spot on top of the red cladding.

    They probably won't. Red background won't look with an Argos logo. How about the Canada Soccer logo?

    It needs more TFC logos! That new TFC logo from the popup store would be so sweet!

    I'm pretty sure that article confirms the front 5 rows are going to be separated from the rest of the section. I do not like this.

    I think so. One of the pics a few pages back looked like there was a railing at the first row of the seats that are there now.

    I was hopeful where the stairs used to be, that would be an fenced gate that would at least open for us to descend down. Guess we'll have to enter from the corner and show tickets there, so not going to be able to cram people into the front area as per usual.

    Really fucking sucks. Gonna want to move my seat back into the main part of the section next year if I can.

    Were also going to be at ground level. Where's the capo stand going to go?

    All of this for the fucking Argos.

    nah, i doubt they would do that ryan. I would imagine that, that railing is removable and will not be in place when we have the bottom seats in there. I cant seem them blocking it off that way. if anything where the stairs are that railing comes out so we can walk down through there. less people walking at field level is probably better in their eyes. Also the bottom seats probably dont go all the way down to field level. that way we still have a capo stand.

    I hope so. When I was there it certainly didn't look removable.

    Does make sense they would prefer easier crowd control, but who knows. Just really hoping they don't have the same 5 row seating as you can see in the North end corners. Gross.

    Nothing specific to the field but I'm curious if MLSE is planning on taking a Barcelona-light strategy whereby they reinvest their Leafs/Raptors profits into TFC to grow its revenue generating abilities over the long term so that one day it may be just as large if not the largest sports revenue source.

    Here are what the two little stands in the north end look like, wonder if it will be someting similar to fill in the first 6 row in the south end.

    Those look a little more premium than they will give us on the south. Although if the base is the same metal material i can see us being able to make lots of noise on it.

    Wouldn't they just keep rows 1-XXXXX in the south, and if they add a few rows field level, call it A,B,C,D... I can't seem them shifting all of our seats down. Maybe I misread as I showed up late...


    Also, doesn't the new roof kinda seem like a cheap umbrella that someone is holding really high above your head? It's only pictures at this point, but I'm curious to see what impact that has on the south. A bit of misty rain is one thing, a new giant wind tunnel is another. Eep!

    Was in BMO last night briefly and I will say that the roof on the southend doesn't appear to be as high as it looks in pictures.

    Still high but not as bad as in person.
