Latest From Toronto-Good News !

If he was named in the 25 but then retired he could be replaced in the 25 with a player who is not contracted to another team

I see that as the best solution for all involved.

Nelsen has served us well in his short time with us, & it would seem unfair to block a move where he can further his career; I just don't think Toronto would suit him; just ask Mariner.

Why would he retire when he could become a Player Manager!

[SpankwiR]

What's the point in making him stay when he doesn't want to? He'll end up playing like Anton!

Unless he gets run over by a bus he wont be that bad

Can't we offer him something on the coaching staff?

Is Toronto on the good nice english side of Canada or the bad sh*t french side?

The good ole English side :sorry:

[jmelanie]

English side but a number of people living in Toronto are either French Canadian or bi-lingual.

Cold day here but looks like some news to warm me up. My local team are reporting that while Ryan
Nelson had signed a long term contract he will be staying at Rangers for a couple of months at least. The season starts here in March and the club are prepared to wait. So it may well be that Nelson will at least be available while Harry looks for replacements. This was announced at the club press conference this morning. Hopefully he will be back and available for Saturday. Just passing on the info I have.

Good news.

He got the First Team Manager job, no way we can compete with that...

Interview with Ryan on BBC: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/20946699

"I've had several conversations with Harry and [club owner] Tony Fernandes," the New Zealander said. "They have been so understanding with my situation. They understand that when I play I am playing on glass knees and glass ankles. It is a bit of a struggle. They know I am at the end but they also know the predicament they are in. It is a major predicament. QPR would like me to keep playing but we have to sit down and talk. If we can get five straight wins, that'd be perfect. "I think then we can shake hands and part company but we are just going to have to talk and see how things progress."

Looks like we might be playing hard ball.......

You sure?

If so then that will be good. If not, then its great he will stay until March and we would have to sacrifice a 25th man for the last 2 months of the season if we can't replace. Would still be worth doing imo becasue it's very rare all of the 25 get used anyway, so rather have him for 3 months, then only 24, rather than 25 others of which a few may play 1 game.

There are very few Francophones in Toronto!
