TFC Flashback: The beginning of the Preki era at Toronto FC
"We hired Preki [in 2009] and, frankly, to put it in the vernacular, that was a f—in' disaster," said Larry Tanenbaum, chairman of MLSE.
In this special flashback series for TFC Republic, we examine interesting moments in the history of Toronto FC.
In the latest instalment: We look back to the 2010 pre-season training camp for Toronto FC as Preki began his tenure as the team's new coach.
Forget about players and coaches who are long gone.
Forget about the previous three years that failed to produce a single playoff appearance. Forget about the humiliating 5-0 loss to the last-place New York Red Bulls on the final day of the 2009 Major League Soccer campaign that dashed the club's post-season hopes. Forget about the past. Forget about it all.
