    Just reading the Toronto FC forum and the boys are saying that Celtic are going to play a friendly in Toronto September (7 I think).

    Anyone else heard news on this? A lot of the guys seem to think it's a done deal and will be announced soon.

    Seems strange given that the season will have started.

    Apparently against Benfica or Boca.

    If true, I'll be there 100%

    This was the ticketmaster link, but they have pulled the event

    This is 100% on. Just announced it on the radio here.

    Sept. 2 against Benfica @ BMO Field Toronto.

    What do you guys think of a friendly on the other side of the Atlantic during the season? (note - there is a break between the Aug 30 hibs match and Sept 12 DU match).

    We'll have won the league by then anyway so it'll be a nice wee holiday for the Bhoys.







    ...either that or a Celtic XI

    Good Question! I was one of the Toronto FC supporters that refused to attend a friendly last week with Real Madrid because I didn't want to support our FO in their decision to have a money grabbing a mid season friendly that could potentialy affect out second half/outcome of the league. Yet I will without question buy a ticket and attend this Celtic mid-season friendly without feeling guilty. hhhmmmmmmm.......

    To hear you, you'd think Canada was on the other side of the world!!!!.......2nd 11 or not, we'd love to see the Bhoys.....we can't all be in Glezga every weekend.
