Real talk

Real fucking Madrid coming to Toronto to play TFC....
On a grass pitch! @ BMO field!.....
Finally a big name european club coming to BMO....

Okay there's a catch.

To make this happen, we need to move a fixture from august to next week... I know you had planned your summer around the schedule to. Not miss a game, but c'mon its Madrid.

Sure we didn't have a game moved last season because of the amount of players on int'l duty.... Buuuuut chivas isn't the 9 time european champions.

Oh ya.... That int friendly you bought with your season tickets, well. Its gonna cost a lot to bring madrid here, so we need you to fork out some $. NOW. Oh you'll still get a friendly, but not vs Madrid.

And yes, you heard me right! GRASS @ BMO. But only for this game, Madrid won't play on that dreaded turf....

Sound a little fucked up? Ya so do about 90% of the supporters.

The decisions made to bring Madrid to Toronto did not sit well with many.... Add this to the growing number of issues with the tfc fo, and massive league losses to houston, LA and a Voyageurs cup loss to the Whitecaps, you have the shit hitting the fan.

In what should be a celebration of the Beautiful game making it big in the hockey crazed city, we have a team/ supporter termoil.

Despite it all, I will be at the Madrid / TFC friendly to see my 2 fav teams ina match only previously seen in Fifa 2008. But among the many in white, I will be there to support the reds, like I alway have and always will.
