Football

Toronto Football Club
The only team in town really. It has “Toronto” and “Football Club” in the title, so pretty safe.

2017 MLS Cup Champions!

Catch a game, seriously. The atmosphere is great — especially the walk to the stadium at BMO Field as fans pass under the Exhibition GO train station and bang the walls.

Check out this site’s Booze section for some pubs where the fans hang out. Not a complete list, still trying to get updates.

Also, four lads are having a bit of a giggle on their Under The Cosh website and podcast.

DISCLAIMER: The term that Brits invented — “football” — on this site refers to the beautiful game. Not the one in North America where they wear helmets, throw an egg-shaped ball to each other and run two feet before the game stops for cheerleaders.

Fan Pubs

      I’m in TO for business and looking for any Leeds groups watching in a pub somewhere. From Leeds. Now live in Dallas.
