It's safe to say the panel will be busy this week! |

What an absolute embarrassment to the sport Toronto showed to be yesterday. I would say amateurish but I think most amateurs have more respect for the officials than the likes of Mcrone.
Knockersbump is easily the worst poster on this forum, just ask 99% of the FC board.

On the back of your comment HV, take a look at the thread i created earlier about posters... I'd happily add Knockersbump to the list of users/posters that I don't like. |

Just my opinions unless it's a FACT, in which case it's a fact.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_74166.jpeg |

I was really impressed with Toronto’S first 20 minutes, throwing the ball around and showing controlled aggression. The problem was they lost control. And anyone blaming Goodwin for protecting a young player is deluded. I’ve even seen Saints fans allege that Goodwin punched Dixon from behind. It seems to be overlooked that Dixon pushed his head into Livett before punching him.

No card would've been given to anyone if Dixon kept his fist out of Livett's face and if Toronto played rugby instead of being aggressive poophouses.'"

I'm just watching the highlights back, mccrone was lucky not to walk after the red card was issued, thaler had to try and keep a lid on him at that point, which was then followed up after charnley scored, he was in his face still banging on about the third man in when dixon started the melee(which he did with the heavy hit and then shoving harvey's face as he played the ball)
I don't think you can have any sympathy for McCrone whatsoever.

None at all - his response to Thaler was like a petulant teenager arguing with a teacher; pathetic from a so-called pro. |

IMO Toronto didn't behave any differently to what they've been behaving all season. Difference, refs in the Championship have been told to turn a blind eye. When they came up against a SL side and a SL ref they obviously resented no longer being able to get away with the same behaviour they've produced all season so fac.

That's a very serious allegation that you have made there majorhound, care to back that up with any proof? |

He was either plain stupid or arrogant and perhaps thought that Thaler wouldn't reach for a card. |

I've no proof at all, just what I see. And of course past experience with Celtic Crusaders. |

Interesting and absolute farcical claim. Toronto had Robert Hicks in the middle for their match with Dewsbury......so they've already had a SL referee and an award winning one at that!
Rowley coached sides always try to bully teams.....it's nowt new and if they go up he'll be replaced by an Aussie coach or they'll be straight back down, but referees being instructed to turn a blind eye is fantasy level stuff  |

HOW MANY TIMES?????
£20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000.
The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover.
There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them.
