Totally off topic, but Paul Beirne is the name of the guy that is the is the head of Toronto FC, the MLS franchise. If his name was Brian Burke or Brian Colangelo you'd have a bunch of buyers.


He's not the head of Toronto FC mate. Brian Burke and Brian Colangelo are general managers. Our general manager is Mo Johnson.

Paul Bierne is director of business operations for TFC. He's co-general manager with Mo Johnson. (Basically, Johnson does the soccer operations side of the GM work, Bierne does the business stuff). Not that any of this matters.

However he is not head of TFC and co-general manager. Johnson has more responsibility regardless of if his work is footy related or not. Anyway we're a bit off topic here lol.

Beirne's the first All Time Great potential player I've seen in Canada. I hope he gets the training that could help him and Canada.

just curious, he could have been a fairly well rounded player with the right training, wasn't sure what his training was now at this point. he usually got whatever Fawlty was getting when they were both U21.
