A senior Toronto FC official has confirmed that the team is making emergency repairs to BMO Field because bolts and fasteners have fallen from the new stadium during games.

The stadium operator and team owner, Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment, insists the facility is safe and that inspections and repairs will be fully completed ahead of Saturday's game between Toronto FC and D.C. United.

A fourth consecutive capacity crowd is expected.

"It is a big concern for us and the grandstand builder was very quick to jump on the problems and we are assuming that the problem has now been rectified and there won't be a reoccurrence," MLSE executive vice-president of operations Bob Hunter said Thursday.

"In the last two days they have gone through and checked every connection and added additional locking [nuts]."

All three Toronto FC games at the new stadium have been sellouts, and the fans have quickly gained a reputation for their boisterous support for the new team. Fans have been stomping on the all-metal floors of the stadium and some reports say this has caused material to fall.

"We have found a total of six objects which fans have turned in to stadium staff," Hunter said.
