Much has been made of Toronto’s crowd since they joined MLS last year. But what are the roots of their supporter culture, and is it “authentic”?
Away support in MLS will be under the spotlight soon when Toronto take a couple of thousand fans to Columbus for their season opener. Yet Toronto’s own front office is restricting away travel to BMO Field from opponents, and MLS headquarters seems disinterested in doing anything to assist those who want to journey to watch their team. What’s the way forward?
Deeply contrasting MLS news: another delay for the opening of Red Bull Park in New Jersey; whilst Toronto FC have already sold-out their self-imposed 16,000 season ticket limit. At this rate, the latter will have built themselves a new and bigger stadium by the time NY open theirs.
