The long wait is over. The West Village Partners (WVP) are honoured to join Mississauga Mayor Bonnie Crombie, Ward 1 Councillor Jim Tovey and Janice Baker, City Manager/CAO to speak about a visionary development proposal for the Port Credit waterfront. At a news conference alongside the Mayor and Councillor, WVP spokespeople Ken Tanenbaum and Frank Giannone will outline the draft master plan for a mixed-used development on former industrial lands at 70 Mississauga Road South. They will also speak about the community engagement process for the residents of Port Credit. I read a more detailed news article after the presentation. It's up in the air if a sports facility would be apart of this. I think it's a safe conclusion that it would be on the low end of this consortium's priorities.

Macksam Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 (edited) It seems I have been obsessed with hockey sweaters recently. I'm thinking a soccer version of the alternative New York Rangers uniform, which features a darker shade of blue and cream coloured off-white instead of regular white would be sharp for our Toronto CPL club. Even go as far as having Toronto or dare I say Blizzard etched diagonally downwards from left to right.

Team up with Toronto CPL owners to split renovation cost to make it class stadium. They're installing new turf next year, I dream that they would go desso grass master.

Greatest Cockney Rip Off Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Maybe you don't need a name? As pointed out, it is currently turning people off. You could just be the Toronto CPL Supporters group and try to get as many people on side as possible. You don't need catchy names, you need large numbers to make this happen and show there is an hunger for a non MLSE football club in Toronto.

BrennanFan Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Exactly. First get a group together, then the group chooses a name that reflects the entire group. grande, Complete Homer, Kent and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macksam Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 (edited) What location? This team hasn't built a stadium yet. If you all are referring to the bar we're meeting at today, we're going to be moving around the city to accommodate everybody for future events. When it comes to the name, adjustments can be made. Relax everyone. I definitely want to do future things downtown Toronto or uptown, near Yonge and Avenue Road something close to everyone. Anyhow, besides Matty and I, who's down for tonight? @BrennanFan @Greatest Cockney Rip Off @Ansem @Jahinho Guerro Edited May 9, 2017 by Macksam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrennanFan Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Arizona's is practically in Brampton. I'll go next time if the location is more central and it's not on a weeknight ffs. I suggest Scallywags as that has been the home of the Toronto Vs for years now. (And for the love of God consider a name change, what the hell does Cronenberg have to do with Football, Christ on a bike help me out here).
