Public Criticism of MLS Referees Could Cost Toronto FC in the Long Run

It is clear that the level of refereeing in Major League Soccer needs to improve, but Toronto FC need to be the careful when talking about the matter.

The last couple of weeks have left Toronto FC fuming at Major League Soccer referees. Last week, it was the non-call of an apparent foul on TFC's Justin Morrow prior to a goal for Sporting Kansas City. This week, it was a red card given to TFC midfielder Benoit Cheyrou that drew the ire of the team and its supporters.

Today, the theme of poor refereeing decisions is not only prevalent in Toronto, it was the talking point of the weekend across the league.
