His retirement has come gently, Dobson said. Originally, he planned to leave after the last EPL season ended in May.

But when Sportsnet president Scott Moore, who offered Dobson the gig in the first place, asked him to stay on for 10 Toronto FC games over the summer, he agreed.

Dobson has already done his last Saturday morning broadcast with longtime colleague Craig Forrest. He called his final game at BMO Field in early August. The Premier League show kicked off in the middle of that month with Dobson’s successor, James Sharman, in the host chair.

Saturday is just the final milestone in the retirement tour.

Dobson was stunned by the outpouring of well wishes from fans after he announced his plan May 2.
