I Was Just Rejected At ANZ Stadium Homebush Tonight

[The Preacher]

I couldnt help but notice the reference to the Tele witnessing the event. They cant write 5 lines without lying.......

Noticed that myself Ribs. Perhaps the Herald would like to know that it was Brettles contacting everyone in the press that they got the story, and not their own investigative eye for news. God they sh!t ya when you know for a fact they're telling absolute lies.

 

[Timmah]

Um, it was the Tele, not the Herald.

 

[St. Brett]

The truth of the matter is I feel lousy today.

Normally I'd be on top of the world skyting and going off half cocked.
Calling myself The Whip and how I can crush anybody.
But I feel empty today.
I don't know why.

I guess I'm in my Tim Smith down-mood today.

Wanna know what else?

I made an absolute mess on the train the other night tearing it to shreds.
I hope city rail doesn't see my piece and fine me for littering.

The Sunday Telegraph guy talked to me on the phone yesterday.
He sort of hinted they wanted to come out and take my picture.

He put it to me, do you think your actions are maybe hurting the game.
I had no real reply to this and it bugged the sh*t out of me all last night and today.

I just e-mailed that Chris guy journo from Sunday Telegraph right then.
Wanna read it?

Chris Wilson?

Brett Gaddes here.
The ghost banner guy?
A couple more things.

Did you read today’s Daily Telegraph?
Holy sh*t, my photo’s in the back.
My story made it.
People are listening.
Between me and you, I feel lousy today though.
After the anger and adrenalin effect has worn off I feel bad now.

Chris? Don’t worry about sending anyone to my joint for another photo.
I’m shocked I’m in today’s paper.
It’s caught me off guard.
I thought no one would care.
This is more than I expected.
I’m over-whelmed.
Are you still going to run with my story though in your letters section of the Sunday Telegraph?
Are you letters editor section or sport?
I didn’t send my story to Josh Massoud for today’s Daily Telegraph print so I don’t know how that got there.

You put it to me on the phone yesterday and I quote, ‘do you think your actions are maybe hurting the game,’ end quote.
I dunno it’s kind of an unfair question really.
I’m not taking the heat for what’s happened to Rugby League today.
Those is charge have obviously failed to manage it properly and are too proud to admit to this.
Maybe the question that needs to be asked is, ‘should Rugby League have been marketed with high expectations in the first place.’
They need to concede defeat and get off their high horse and stop this push for expansion which is no different to Super League.
Remember the old saying making the big game bigger?
Maybe that’s their vision though, we don’t want fans to attend, the Sydney clubs will go under and we’ll introduce our ADL and Perth team at their expense.

This would make a good letter to big league or rugby league week.
I might break this above letter down and fire it off to big league mag.

I’m no rabble rouser if that’s what you were asking on the phone the other day, far from it.
And unless someone wants to explain the intricate politics of Rugby League to me then I’ll remain ignorant and head strong in my own beliefs with what’s wrong today how they’re bleeding our game a slow death.

P.S. My Dad bursts in my room this morning calling me a f**k wit and a f**king fool.

You know what? I feel that the top heavies from the ANZ Stadium will probably come gunning for me now.
They've probably got underground contacts and will have me bashed.
In the words of Rollings' 'let 'em come, because at the end of the day it's all about confrontation and destruction.'
I'll be waiting for them.

I thought it'd be really funny to go to the SFS next and take a sign with me that says Coleslaw and comes complete with lid and casing.

I wonder if the ANZ will retaliate tomorrow with a defense letter?
They'll probably paint me as some sort of wise arse.

Oh and yer....didn't I tell you guys they were fudging the figures at that ground?
The Dragons Penrith game last Friday had less than 2000 people there.

 

[Timmah]

What a load of sh*t :lol:

I got the envelope with your photo this morning.

Whats your home address?

 

[The Preacher]

Um, it was the Tele, not the Herald.

That's what I'm saying Timmah, the Tele is spruiking how they witnessed this happening when in fact they only took action after Brettles pointed out what had happened to him, via email.
I'm saying that it might be worthwhile telling the Herald how the Tele has bullsh!tted it's way into reporting the event.

I don't mind being picked up for a mistake if I've made one, but there isn't one there Timmah, so pull your sarcastic f**ken head in.

 

[God-King Dean]

:lol: pwnage.

 

[Timmah]

I didn't see a reference to the Tele in the second half of your sentence - no sarcasm at all. :?

 

[The Preacher]

OK. It doesn't say Tele, but that's who Ribs and I were refering to, quite obviously. FINISHED.

 

[Timmah]

Surely they could be found out for blatantly incorrect reporting? Stating they observed him on the night is an outright lie.

 

[Timmah]

Fair enough... I wasn't trying it on or anything to be honest - it just looked to me like you'd misunderstood who'd reported what. All good.

No, I'm saying exactly the same as you have in post #130.

 

[adamkungl]

I'm with you Dantm, I don't understand the total hatred of ANZ.

Sure not every seat has an awesome view, but in 100% of club games played there, seats with a good view are available to those who want them. People who claim they can't get a good view of the game at ANZ are either lying, or morons. And do people ever actually compare the view to those from suburban grounds. Shark Park has a friggen Power pole in the middle of the northern hill which doesn't exactly improve the viewing spectacle for people watching the game from there, campbelltown has very few good spots for watching the game. And while people love the atmosphere of hills, as soon as there is a decent crowd on one, comfort and visibility levels drops. And good luck if you are at a suburban ground on a rainy day.


And even though people here seem to be anti stuff that makes a profit (only exception being profitable stuff the NRL isn't doing, in which case its just proof of their incompetence) you can't ignore the fact that clubs make money playing at ANZ, and lose money playing at suburban grounds.

Wrong. The place is far too shallow for a good view unless you're in one of the front rows. Halfway back and you're too far away fom the action. No other ground i've been to has this problem. ANZ is a sh*thole.

 

[Timmah]

I beg to differ, I find you have a better view of the field at ANZ even if you aren't as close. The closer you are, the more difficult it is to see certain parts of the field - that's the same at any ground.

 

[Dutchy]

Not Bluetongue

 

[St. Brett]

Guys, there was a man standing out near the gates the other night I thought looked out of place and not really there for the game.

I think he was about to ask me something as I passed him too.

And besides....I sent my complaint to yoursay@dailytelegraph.com.au not no sports writer at their paper.

I think Josh Massoud reads this forum anyway.

I've always said, you never know who is reading what or looking at your myspace page.

if he is reading it hes a c*cksucker for making up that story about RL crowds on monday night.

little wonder people ignore the tele and go with the SMH.

pathetic coverage

 

[smeghead]

Yeah he made up that Souths include event staff in their crowd numbers

 

[Butters]

Yeah he made up that Souths include event staff in their crowd numbers

Didn't you get the memo? Whenever an article is critical of RL it's a baseless lie.:roll:

 

[Perth Red]

Disagree totally. If you want to be under cover at ANZ then you are so far away from the pitch you end up watching half the game on the big screens, kind of defeats the object of not staying at home!

This is the angle a stand should be:
