TORONTO -- The president of Toronto FC says a roof at BMO Field is one of his long-term goals.

Kevin Payne, who took charge of the MLS franchise prior to this season, says some form of roof is needed to create a sense of drama and enhance game presentation.

But he says the shelter doesn't have to cover the entire stadium or even all the seats.

Payne also wants more night games, saying playing under the lights is more of a theatrical experience.

The TFC president says it's all part of a plan to improve the fan experience.
