TORONTO -- Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment is looking at roof options for Toronto FC at BMO Field at a cost of $100 million-plus. "Ive been to many of the games this year. Its almost like theres a direct correlation between rain and a TFC game," Tim Leiweke, MLSE president and CEO, told a breakfast question-and-answer session with Toronto FC supporters Saturday. "Ive never seen anything like it. Are we cursed or what? Its just the most incredible thing Ive ever seen. We got to get you a roof. The owners know it. (MLSE chairman) Larry Tanenbaum is actually involved now day-to-day on the design of the roof. "I spent three hours with Larry and contractors and engineers the other day looking at different kinds of roofs. We have an October board meeting with Bell, Rogers and Mr. Tanenbaum and were bringing the roof to them in October." The city of Toronto owns the stadium, which cost $62 million to build, but Leiweke says MLSE has promised to pay for all the renovations. Leiweke says a key issue is how to build a roof without having to have the MLS team move out during construction for a year. "I think we have found a way to do that. I hope weve found a way to do that," he said. "Roofs are really expensive but were going to do the best we can now to get that money. I wish it was $90 (million), its now $100 (million) plus. "Weve got to get a roof there for you." Leiweke said afterwards that MLSE is a looking at a variety of designs, with a variety of cover. Ironically, he made the comments on a day when the sun came out for a Toronto game. The last few home games have been played in downpours. Leiweke also told the TFC supporters that the stadium would never revert to artificial turf. "We cant get the kind of DPs (designated players) we want to get if were on anything but grass," the MLSE boss said. "Theyre not coming." On the issue of sharing a field with the Toronto Argonauts, Leiweke said the city of Toronto had approached them in the wake of news that the CFL team has signed its final lease with Rogers Centre. "We are not anywhere close to this decision at all. Were spending all of our time right now on a roof and how we do that," said Leiweke. "If and when we get to a point in time where the Argos are a point of conversation, Im going to promise you three things. We would only do it if we can spend the money to make sure the pitch, the experience, the seats and your sightlines stay the same or better than you have today for soccer. Two, we will come talk to you again and have a conversation about whether or not we can co-exist with them -- on grass and at the stadium and theres technology to make that work. "We are a long way away from that conversation. We have not bought the Argos. We are not in the middle of closing a deal with the Argos. When that time comes, we will have a conversation with you and the conversation will mean that your experience has to get better, the sightlines have to stay the same or get better. "Thats what were going to do. But for right now ... getting this (MLS) team better is first in our mind." Authentic Marc Methot Jersey .

The French champions say British authorities had originally granted the Ivory Coast international permission to enter the country for the game at the Emirates Stadium, but revoked the 23-year-olds visa on November 16.Aurier was given a two-month suspended prison sentence in May after allegedly assaulting a police officer outside a nightclub in Paris and is currently appealing that ruling. In a statement released on Tuesday, PSG said: After an initial application on October 18, complete with all the necessary documents, the British authorities had originally granted Paris Saint-Germains Ivory Coast international, Serge Aurier, an entry visa to the UK on 21 October. Aurier was given a suspended two month prison sentence in May However, on November 16, his visa was finally revoked by the British Ministry of the Interior, who justified their about-face by citing Auriers conviction on September 30, 2016.Paris Saint-Germain had, in all transparency, informed the British authorities of this conviction, as well as Auriers appeal against this decision (and the legal suspension of the ruling) from the outset.The club has argued several times that since the pllayer has launched a legal appeal against the criminal ruling, he is therefore entitled to the presumption of innocence, as any other person exercising their right to appeal.dddddddddddd Sky Sports Black Friday sale Upgrade to Sky Sports now and get 12 months half price! Paris Saint-Germain strongly regrets that the presumption of innocence has not influenced Britains decision. On several occasions, UEFA has also transmitted its total support of Paris Saint-Germain to the British authorities regarding this case, in order to preserve the integrity of its competitions.The club also deplores that the final decision of the British authorities was only communicated at 2pm on Tuesday, despite the club working for the last six days to find a solution to enable our player to travel with his team-mates to London.Paris Saint-Germain considers this extremely tardive response as a flagrant lack of respect for the club, given that its player could have been training with the team just hours later at Emirates Stadium.Upgrade to Sky Sports now and get 12 months half price.
