Vote with Your Feet.

[TheRam]

I know mate, I know. But again if that is all you are looking at then surely you arn't in for the protest about their Playing peformance, you are "voting" because they arn't winning.

As I said, Fickle.

No. To many years within that 22 years where they just did not put in when they should of and only a handful that they did as well as could be expected. From an administration point of view no excuses, virtually all seasons DF has been a failure.

 

[MarkInTheStands]

But just to clarify the situation. I understand if people are upset with the effort. I believe if people watched my Interview with Hayden Knowles they would have seen that. I asked the Club to respond to that. I was livid with the club at the Post game Function and unfortunately gave both Barrels to both Team Managers and Joe the Cameraman got a passing shot.

But I just think if you are a fan. That is to use the etymology of the word a Fanatical Supporter, you will turn up regardless of their teams performance. If you don't then I wouldn't class you as Fanatical. Just a Supporter.

My Long standing view of Supporters is, they only sing when were winning.

You know what if you didn't have that Great big agenda against Fitzy some might take that seriously. But you do. So at least I don't

 

[TheRam]

I bet they wouldn't. Narrow losses albeit putting in and digging deep would hardly satisfy Ram, Tekken Lord & Co.

(To paraphrase and correct me if I'm wrong) A loss is a loss and they demand results. No point in settling for mediocrity.

The results they are after is a premiership. If you comb through their posts they don't even consider that we had a good year last year - even though we got beat in the game before the GF by the eventual winners.

Listen, no successful organization accepts 22 years of failure the way we have, without a change at the very top. It just would not happen in the professional world.

NSW has lost the series just three years running and they are out to get the selectors ffs. Cop the hint, we are losers due to the front office nothing more nothing less. This club has way to much talent to be premiership less for 22 going on 30 years and beyond while Di*k Face is still there.

 

[TheRam]

I believe they though they did, I also believe they know they are wrong.



What the hell is that crap.



Blah blah blah, Here is the question. Will you be turning up on Friday night next, regardless of Friday this coming nights results?

Blah blah blah blah blah blah. You got to be kidding. What a wank of a question. :lol:

 

[TheRam]

Mate we all have agendas. But the crowds at our games are the real barometer here. Some people will still go like you, but the vast majority will stay away like me. How the hell do you get off though calling non attendants fickle. You have a hide.


It is like me suggesting attendants are groupie suck ups, who would do or say anything to be on the inside and in the know. Now I wouldn't do that.

Yeah so what. I don't really give a sh*t about those people. I have worked my arse off for those people, trying to get things for them out of this club. Yet they still won't turn up, then stuff'em.

Seems to me you just did.

:lol:

I advised Fishy to not waste his time yesterday.

I listened....kinda. :lol:

Mr MITS has gone from no boycott to a boycott including protest outside the ground being OK. :lol:

Mark, you referred to that report talking about how big how latent support is.

We all know that, and, IMO, the fact that hasnt been captured to a larger degree is a failure of the club and the way they have engaged those people.

 

[Suitman]

It is easy when you are debating with the most patronising, smug self important person on the boards.

I knew there was one Pope in town.

I didn't know there was two.

One thing strikes me about this thread MITS.

It seems to be you against almost everybody.

LOL.

Arhh no. To use the most loved quote on the boards go back and read what I said. I said it would be at least an acceptable form of Protest. I still think fans should turn up. If they don't that is their call, the have full reason not to, but I just don't think that are fans when you look at the meaning of the word.

Well I think you are right, it has been a failure, they booked 2 home grown "superstars" and it looks as though it may have effected us poorly. I still think it is a Coaching problem, I just don't think the players want to play for Hagan.

 

[Hellsy]

I loved those t-shirts.

Pitty I didn't get any shots from the Back of them.

Really Suit I am sure it is me and a few others, against you your smug attitude, and about 5 others again.

Personally I don't care if it is just me. Thats just fine and Dandy, I have my attitude, it is my attitude and there is not going to be a lot that comes from you that could change it.

 

[MarkInTheStands]

Thank you Hellsy.

Arhhh all of that From Henry Perenara. I loved hearing the Story of that quote.

At the Start of every game. Henry would get up. Lay down the law and end it with something like. If you want to Win "Come with me" and lead them out.

 

[fish eel]

So now you support people not going through the turnstyles and supporting the team?

If they do it in a constructive way. Actually turn up to the venue but don't go inside. I think that would be better than what people are suggesting. As it would be an actual protest instead of what I would call fans sitting on their arse at home and deluding themselves into believing it is some sort of noble protest.

Arhh no. To use the most loved quote on the boards go back and read what I said. I said it would be at least an acceptable form of Protest. I still think fans should turn up.

Oh, I went back and read what you said, when asked a direct question about supporting it, you said "If they do it in a constructive way"

Seems pretty clear to me.

If you dont support it, dont beat around the bush with word games, just say so in the first instance ;-)

 

[cardinal]

I'm with MITS, parra fans have a reputation of being bogans which was not helped with the Petro comment and now we will have a rep of fair weather fans who only turn up when the going is good. Get a grip and support your side or soon you wont have one.

I said it would be better then what they suggested, not that I supported it. Don't interpret, because you seem to be getting it wrong again.

No mate, you just have gotten it wrong again and are trying to make up for it.
