The club's first regular season match was [[April 7]], [[2007]] at [[Home Depot Center]] in Los Angeles, a 0-2 loss to [[Chivas USA]]. Although they did not make the playoffs, Toronto FC was a financial success in its inaugural season, selling out every home game in the 20,522-seat BMO Field and capturing media attention. ==History== ===Club Identity=== The name of the club was officially announced on [[May 11]] [[2006]] by the team's owner, [[Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment Ltd.]] (MLSE).{{ref|bio1}} The "FC" in the team's name is the conventional initialism for Football Club, but in official media and documents the team has only been referred to as Toronto FC, never Toronto Football Club. Larry Tannenbaum, chairman of MLSE, stated at the team name's unveiling that "I think the way we spell it is 'futbol'."{{ref|bio2}} The announcement followed an online consultation in which the public was invited to vote on the name during a limited period. The voting options were "Toronto Nationals," "Inter Toronto," "Toronto Reds," "Toronto FC," and "Toronto Barons." MLSE's strategy in choosing "Toronto FC" following this process was based on two reasons. Firstly, over 40 percent of the online vote supported the simplified Toronto FC name during the consultation. Secondly, MLSE hoped that with this fairly generic name the new club would earn a more organic nickname from the Toronto fans rather than having one imposed upon the club. This processed has slowly occurred over the course of the club's early history with Toronto FC widely referred to simply by the initials "TFC" or the "Reds" (after their home kit colour) by several media groups and members of the Toronto FC staff. The official team colours are Collegiate Red, White, Dark Onyx, and Light Onyx. ==Toronto FC Supporters== {{main|Toronto FC fans}} [[Richard Peddie]], CEO of Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment Ltd. has stated that he and the ownership would be content with between 13,000-15,000 fans per game at Toronto FC home games,{{ref|bio18}} however, this range has been exceeded. The club capped their season tickets sales at 14,000 on [[March 15]], [[2007]], setting a league record.{{ref|bio19}} For the 2008 season the cap was raised and Toronto FC announced that they have sold 16,000 season tickets. The fans have been called enthusiastic, but sometimes rowdy by North American standards. The Toronto FC front office sent an email to season ticket holders in 2007 asking fans to refrain from throwing objects on the field, or [[pitch invasion|running onto the field]]. This was in response to the celebrations seen during the club's first victory, coming in a [[Major League Soccer|MLS]] match at home to [[Chicago Fire (soccer)|Chicago Fire]].{{ref|bio20}} {{ref|bio21}} ==Ownership and management== Toronto FC are owned and managed by [[Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment|Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment Ltd.]], who are also the owners and operators of the [[Toronto Maple Leafs]], a [[National Hockey League]] team, the [[Toronto Raptors]], a [[National Basketball Association]] team, and the [[Toronto Marlies]], an [[American Hockey League]] team. Along with owning professional sports teams as well as Leafs TV and Raptors NBA TV, the company is also involved in real estate and property management, owning sports venues such as the [[Air Canada Centre]] and managing the [[General Motors Centre]] and the [[Ricoh Coliseum]]. Tom Anselmi, the COO and executive vice-president of MLSE, is regarded as the team's president, while the general manager duties are held by [[Director of football]] (soccer) [[Mo Johnston]]. Paul Beirne is Director of Business Operations.{{ref|bio4}} ==Television and radio== Toronto FC's opening match against Chivas USA was broadcast on [[Rogers Sportsnet]]. On [[April 11]], [[2007]] the [[Canadian Broadcasting Corporation]] (CBC) announced it too had secured rights to broadcast some of the team's matches, along with [[The Score Television Network|The Score]].{{ref|bio6}} The CBC carried 14 regular-season games in 2007, including the home opener and the MLS debut of [[David Beckham]] at BMO Field on [[August 5]]. Rogers Sportsnet employs [[Gerry Dobson]] and [[Craig Forrest]] for the play calling while [[James Sharman]] and [[Paul James (footballer)|Paul James]] call the games on The Score. On CBC, [[Nigel Reed]] and [[Jason DeVos]] handle the broadcasts with [[Mitch Peacock]] performing the sideline role for the national broadcaster. No radio arrangements have been announced to date. ==Head coaches== [[John Carver (footballer)|John Carver]] is currently head coach at Toronto FC. ===History=== {| class="wikitable" |- ! !<Center>Duration !<Center>Coach !<Center>Seasons ! !<Center>Games !<Center>W !<Center>L !<Center>T !<Center>Pts !<Center>GF !<Center>GA !<Center>GD !<Center>W% |- |rowspan="4"|'''1''' |rowspan="4"|<Center>2006-2008 |rowspan="4"|{{flagicon|Scotland}} [[Mo Johnston]] |rowspan="4"|<Center>[[2007 Major League Soccer season|2007]] |<Center>'''Regular Season''' |<Center>30 |<Center>6 |<Center>17 |<Center>7 |<Center>'''25''' |<Center>25 |<Center>49 |<Center>-24 |<Center>20% |- |<Center>'''Playoffs''' |<Center>0 |<Center>0 |<Center>0 |<Center>0 |<Center>'''0''' |<Center>0 |<Center>0 |<Center>0 |<Center> --- |- |<Center>'''Other Matches''' |<Center>0 |<Center>0 |<Center>0 |<Center>0 |<Center>'''0''' |<Center>0 |<Center>0 |<Center>0 |<Center> --- |- |<Center>'''Total''' |<Center>'''30''' |<Center>'''6''' |<Center>'''17''' |<Center>'''7''' |<Center>'''25''' |<Center>'''25''' |<Center>'''49''' |<Center>'''-24''' |<Center>20% |- |rowspan="4"|'''2''' |rowspan="4"|<Center>2008-present |rowspan="4"|{{flagicon|England}} [[John Carver (footballer) | John Carver]] |rowspan="4"|<Center>[[2008 Major League Soccer season|2008]] |<Center>'''Regular Season''' |<Center>15 |<Center>6 |<Center>6 |<Center>3 |<Center>'''21''' |<Center>19 |<Center>20 |<Center> -1 |<Center>40% |- |<Center>'''Playoffs''' |<Center>0 |<Center>0 |<Center>0 |<Center>0 |<Center>'''0''' |<Center>0 |<Center>0 |<Center>0 |<Center> --- |- |<Center>'''Other Matches''' |<Center>3 |<Center>1 |<Center>1 |<Center>1 |<Center>'''4''' |<Center>3 |<Center>3 |<Center>0 |<Center>33% |- |<Center>'''Total''' |<Center>'''18''' |<Center>'''7''' |<Center>'''7''' |<Center>'''4''' |<Center>'''25''' |<Center>'''22''' |<Center>'''23''' |<Center>''' -1''' |<Center>39% |} ====Mo Johnston==== {{main|Mo Johnston}} *[[August 25]], [[2006]] to [[February 1]], [[2008]] Toronto FC confirmed that former [[Red Bull New York]] coach [[Mo Johnston]] would serve as the first head coach in team history at a press conference in Toronto in August 2006. During the press conference, Tom Anselmi said Johnston "represents the next generation of MLS coaches who have extensive playing experience in Europe and North America".{{ref|bio7}} Johnston's playing career included stints at [[Celtic F.C.|Celtic]], [[Rangers F.C.|Rangers]], and [[Everton F.C.|Everton]] before ending his career with the [[Kansas City Wizards]] of [[Major League Soccer]]. At the time of his hiring, Johnston claimed a "wonderful" assistant coach had already been hired while declining to divulge the person's identity.{{ref|bio8}} This person was later revealed to be former [[United States men's national soccer team|U.S. National Team]] and [[Kansas City Wizards]] coach, [[Bob Gansler]]. On [[February 1]] [[2008]], it was announced that Mo Johnston was moving to become Toronto FC Manager and Director of Soccer. ====John Carver==== {{main|John Carver (footballer)}} *[[February 1]], [[2008]] to present John Carver was formerly the caretaker manager at [[Leeds United]] in [[England]] and later assistant at [[Luton Town F.C.]] He has previously worked on the coaching staff at [[Newcastle United]]. He was announced as Toronto FC's new head coach in February 2008 with his predecessor [[Mo Johnston]] "moving upstairs" into sporting director role. ==Support staff== ;{{flagicon|ENG}} [[Chris Cummins]] :On [[May 9]] 2008, the club announced the signing of former [[Luton Town F.C.]] Director of youth development Chris Cummins. Cummins rejoins former [[Luton Town]] colleague [[John Carver (footballer)|John Carver]], who worked on the coaching staff at the English club. Cummins role at [[Toronto FC|TFC]] is as [[John Carver (footballer)|Carver]]'s assistant to the first team. His duties include overseeing the reserve side alongside [[Nick Dasovic]]. ;{{flagicon|ENG}} [[Paul Winsper]] :On [[January 11]] [[2008]], the club announced that [[Paul Winsper]] had been hired as Strength and Conditioning Coach. In 2007, Toronto's injury woes had quickly exposed their lack of depth, and Winsper, a decade-long veteran with [[Newcastle United F.C.|Newcastle United]]'s staff, was brought in from the [[English Premier League|Premier League]]. ;{{flagicon|IRE}} [[Eddie Kehoe]] :Kehoe, a former goalkeeper in [[Republic of Ireland|Ireland]], assisted [[Carmine Isacco]] with coaching goalkeepers in the team's inaugural season. Isacco's departure at the end of 2007 meant that Kehoe assumed a full-time role as goalkeeping coach. ;{{flagicon|ENG}} [[Malcolm Phillips]] :Equipment manager Phillips hails from [[Southampton]], [[England]], and joined up with Toronto in 2007. ;{{flagicon|CAN}} [[Carmelo Lobue]] :Athletic therapist. ;{{flagicon|CAN}} [[Dr. Ira Smith]] :Team physician. ;{{flagicon|CAN}} [[Earl Cochrane]] :Manager team services. ;{{flagicon|CAN}} [[Nick Dasovic]] :[[TFC Academy]] head coach and 2nd assistant to the first team. ;{{flagicon|CAN}} [[Jason Bent]] :[[TFC Academy]] U-18 coach. ;{{flagicon|CAN}} [[Stuart Neely]] :[[TFC Academy]] U-16 coach. == Players == ===Roster=== In accordance with MLS policies, Toronto FC is restricted to an 18 man senior roster and a 10 man developmental roster. Like its American counterparts, the squad consists of both domestic and foreign players (though these domestic players are Canadian rather than American). In 2007, the club was allowed thirteen international players, of which no more than eight could be non-Americans (8+5). Following former coach Mo Johnston complaints regarding the strict player constraints set by the league, MLS has relaxed these regulations for the 2008 season. Now, Toronto FC is allowed sixteen international players, of which no more than eleven can be non-Americans (11+5). This new measure is to compensate for the smaller talent pool in Canada, thus keeping the league competitive. In comparison, American teams are permitted up to eight international players (Canadian players fit into this category). Thus Toronto FC is required to field fewer domestic players than its American counterparts.{{ref|bio9}} ===Current squad=== ''As of 6 July, 2008.''
