TORONTO – Toronto FC general manager Jason Hernandez says he’s disappointed and frustrated that the club missed the playoffs again this season.

Hernandez says he was hoping the team would take meaningful strides this year, but it only made marginal gains. 

It’s the sixth year in a row that the Major League Soccer team has missed the post-season.

Toronto FC (9-13-12) closed the season with a 4-1 loss in Philadelphia last weekend and settled for a 12th-place finish in the Eastern Conference standings. 

Hernandez has already started making changes. Head coach Robin Fraser and three of his assistants were fired on Monday.

The search is underway for Fraser’s replacement. The Reds will open the 2027 sprint season on Feb. 20 at Atlanta United.
