Toronto FC president Bill Manning parting ways with MLSE after disappointing stretch

New York Times  

Bill Manning, who has served as president of Toronto FC of the MLS and the Toronto Argonauts of the CFL, has mutually agreed to part ways with Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment, the teams’ parent company. Manning — who previously held roles with the Tampa Bay Mutiny, Houston Rockets, Philadelphia Eagles and Real Salt Lake — was named president of Toronto FC in 2015 and led the team to the MLS Cup in 2017. Toronto FC has never felt like the same club that strived for excellence since the departures of former general manager Tim Bezbatchenko in 2019 and former head coach Greg Vanney in 2020. After going to three MLS Cups in four years between 2016 and 2019, Toronto FC has since drifted into irrelevance both in MLS and in Toronto’s crowded sports landscape.
