Shame it's raining.

Looks like a very odd pitch!

Also might be a good idea for the announcer to say what's going on during stoppages (e.g. "knock on by Toronto, scrum to Oxford"icon_wink.gif so the locals aren't too confused what's going on...

Inflict a Stuart Cummings figure on em, as it were?

That'll clarify it no end...

Haha fair comment.

Toronto running away with it anyway as expected. Crowd seems very sizable and a lot of shirts/hats/scarves on show.

Think Toronto might hit 100 tonight!
Getting fed up already of the ref blowing penalties though.

north american fans like to be entertained so as long as the wolfpack keep putting big scores on teams they will enjoy it, then hopefully as they become more accustom to the game, they will appreciate tight scoring defensive matches in their quest to reach superleague

Big scrap!

6281 crowd

That must be a record crowd for League One.

It is more than Salford, Huddersfield, Wakefield and Widnes average.

It is but shouldnt expect any less. First game in Toronto and sold 5k season tickets.

Nonetheless it is still impressive, Salford, Huddersfield, Wakefield and Widnes would love to sell 5k season tickets. The challenge will be to keep people coming back, hopefully they don't get bored of the non competitive one sided games, I certainly have given up watching them for this season.

That's an excellent effort, a number that all League 1, Championship and some SL Clubs would be very happy with.
What are Toronto doing to help the locals understand the game and its heritage.
Do they have any type of RL for beginners stuff going on, to explain how the game is played, rules and reffing decisions ?
Again, a fantastic effort with the crowd and we wont really know too much about their credentials until they are in the Middle 8's, perhaps at the end of next season.
