Why Toronto
Toronto are not a spare club. They are USA MLS, York Lions Stadium Toronto, Ontario, and 20 years of people deciding this was theirs, pick them and the season has a second spine.
You get a nickname
Known as The Nine Stripes. That is your new shorthand, your search term and your excuse for buying a scarf.

The calendar you inherit
Following USA MLS means odd kick-off hours, a new commentary language and a table you will check before your own club's. Canada becomes part of your week.
Ground floor
Founded in 2006. There is no dynasty to inherit and no bandwagon to be accused of joining, this is a club whose history you can genuinely watch happen.
