Toronto FC announced Monday that season tickets for the 2008 campaign were sold out.

"We continue to be amazed by the support from our fans," the club's director of business Paul Beirne said in a release.

The team sold 14,000 season tickets for its debut season.

Toronto enjoyed vociferous support despite finishing last in the MLS with a 6-17-7 record, a season that included a host of injuries and a goalless streak of more than eight games.

Last week, Toronto midfielder Maurice Edu was named the league's rookie of the year.
