Mo Johnson is now the new Manager for the Toronto Soccer Team.

I think it's great.
I read the article in the Toronto Star, was all upbeat and he seemed quite thrilled.

Did ye read it ya auld grump?

Gie me news no history, he didnt do too well at what was the team, Red Bulls or something, anyhoo good luck to him, coaching is a tough game.
I remember Toronto City in 1962, I went to see them play Rhiems (sp) of France, Stanley Mathews was playing, Johnny Haynes, Jackie Blanchflower, goalie was an ex Scotland and Hibs man Tommy Younger, and some other big names, I still have the game program, Toronto won 2-0.

Wiz it naw Danny Blanchflower? Ma da says he was unreal. I think he was Irish.

Your right it was Danny, Jackie was his brother but didnt play for Toronto.
He was Irish but that doesnt necessarily make you unreal! LoL Jist kiddin.
I remember a halfback line that played for Nothern Ireland, Blanchflower, Blanchflower and Peacock.

i know mo's sister lorraine

Well I watched on TV most of Toronto FCs first MSL league game from California, they were beaten 2-0 by Chivas USA, both teams could use more quality players, one or two on each team looked talented, most were very average.
Will Mo Johnstone last the season/ Jist kiddin?

New England Revolution 4 Toronto FC 0 will Mo Johnston last the season, jist kiddin?

Kansas City Wizards defeated Toronto 3-0, that is the third game in a row without scoring even one goal for Toronto, will Mo Johnson last the season as manager/coach, jist kiddin?

So far they have played 4, lost 4, with NO goals scored for Mo Johnston and the Toronto FC.

The Weekend there was their Official Opening Hubert in Toronto.
Other than the stand menu's now including Chip Butty's and Scotch Eggs I don't know how it went

I believe the Season Tickets are sold out, which seemingly is a first for Soccer here.

Are they expecting Beckam to play charity games Catherine?, or the Mrs to sing a few numbers

Beckham and his L.A. team are coming to Vancouver for a game in either September or October.

I think it was 1-0 they lost? Yes they are fortunate to have a big following.

Well Mo Johnson is no longer the head coach, we are geting John Carver and Mo is moving upstairs to"management" Seems season tickets are sold out again out so a big following for Toronto soccer whoever is the head coach! Hubert can they do any better with John Carver at the helm??

Well I dont know much about Carver, and I dont think there is much too know, LoL, its doubtful one way or the other if things will improve, sorry?
There was a John Carver that came to America in the Mayflower, canny mind if he played for Plymouth or if that was his destination?
In 1966 I was the coach of the Toronto Celtic, played 18 league games won 17 drew 1 lost 0, true.
We used to train in the New Windsor Pub on Church St. near Queen street, it was McVeigh and Gilligans then, also true! LoL

Cripes we're in amongst the famous Toerag and we didnae know it


I think that's a great wee claim tae fame Hubert, gaun yersel, or better still why don't ye come back an soart them oot for us

Thanks Catherine, its hard to be humble, they used tae call me Hughie Stein, canny blame them! LoL
Imagine Toronto FC having sold 16,000 season tickets this season, thats something, good luck to them.

Wow. 2 pages, nearly 2 years, and no one spotted that Maurice Johnston's name isn't "Mo Johnson".

Top Glaswegians.

You dont has to call me Johnson, you dont has to call Johnstone, you dont even has to call me Johnston, you can me J. LMAO

The only was Mr Johnston will succeed is if the Toronto team is a team of ladies .That is the only environment Mr \Johnston feels at home in .
