Wests Tigers Terrible Ten (2000-2006)

[mulvihill]

Can we have steve clarke in at No 6 with a bullet ??

 

[bjm8]

The ever freindly Steve Clark scored some extra marks yesterday, and now must surely charge up the list.

And as for you mulvihill, i understand why you dont like bandwagoners, a lot of people dont, im not over phased by them but would much prefer our sides supporters to be lifelong diehard bleed for the cause supporters like you or i. But what have you got against tigers supporters that arent necessarily bandwagoners?

 

[mulvihill]

I have a problem with the soul of anyone who can change sides. If you were balmain or wests and have become a WT fan then that's fine. I have an issue with someone supporting the tigers that a yr or 2 ago supported penrith. Last time i checked penrith were still in the comp. They are soul-less club hopping wannabes who have no right to bask in the glory of last yr. People can change religions, wives, etc but a football team is for LIFE, not a season or 2.

Some that dont accept the JV and follow only the Magpies or BRET/Balmain could possibly say the same of you and all Wests Tigers fans.

How can you support Prince & Boof, who are going to other clubs....how do you support Fatz, Galloway, O'Hara, Galea, Payten etc...all from other clubs.

I think you should worry more about yourself....god knows that'll keep you busy...as opposed to worrying about others.

BJM8;

Theres a difference between those jumping onto a winning streak that ends with a premiership, and those commencing support during the heady days of '02, '03 & '04.

 

[mulvihill]

Because players have always changed clubs ink. Since yr dot. You support the players wearing your team's colours and next yr you will be shouting for someone to take their heads off. This is not a Balmain, Wests, WT issue open to question. What is open to question is how someone who supports penrith can suddenly change sides. Could you ditch the tigers tomorrow and follow manly or easts or canterbury or st george or parra ?? I sure as f**k couldn't. It's what the odd kid might do in kindergarten but fully grown (and then some) adults changing teams mid life is pathetic and that is being kind

 

[innsaneink]

Nope...I couldnt do it, but just because I cant doesnt mean others cant or my way is THE way.

As I explained to BJM...

Maybe if you got over yourself, and stopped looking for faults in others in everything you do...youd see just how passionate a supporter some of those you throw sh*t on really are, whether theyve been here from day dot or switched from somewhere else.

Your claim to fame is youve been banned from the official forum by the clubs CEO, while yesterday that panthers fan was holding the banner for Skando...funny eh?
Tells me all I need to know.

What sanctimonious drivel.

 

[innsaneink]

How so, Ted?

 

[innsaneink]

Looks like Teds done a runner....he posts in the other thread an hour after my Q, yet nothing here...

 

[NZ Magpie]

Don't let a sh*tstick like Ted get to you INK.

Replacing Radison Maine Company at Number 10.

10. Warren "Poker Ace" Mcdonell

Well Yes, The Guru, the man with the midas touch. He struts to the poker table with his shades and his entourage of blondes by his side. Problem is when the big hands are played out Warren is at the buffet, or refuses to risk the $16 we snuck in on with off suit pair of 4s in Jason Moodie.

 

[themanonthehill]

Surely Nick Graham and Slammin Sammy Harris deserve honourable mentions in all of this.
So is croydon the alter ego of a regular poster on these boards ??

 

[hybrid_tiger]

Whats the story with the Penriff/Tiger fans?

 

[themanonthehill]

As CDF mentioned a few of them (including one Admin on the official forum) only became tigers fans when we got sattler. Thus, not only did we have the misfortune to sign that particular seagull spastic, we picked up 3 or 4 of his adoring fans.

 

[madunit]

why does it matter when they became fans mulvi?

Longevity as a supporter for a side doesn't make you a better supporter, all it means is that you've been a fan of the club longer.

f**k you're a childish bitch at times, on a par with innsaneink.

Sorry, but "changing" teams doesn't make you a supporter in the first place.

 

[themanonthehill]

I cannot fathom how anyone can change teams. And by changing teams i don't mean Balmain or Wests fans who are now Wests Tigers fans. Completely different. And yes, sticking solid with your team does make you a better supporter than one whom changes teams. Otherwise everyone would be like a 7yo kid and changing sides every september so they followed a winning team

LOL...name calling, how primary school.

Maybe I'm way off tap, plz correct me if I am.

I recall someone several years back who loved nothing better than to post about what I thought was his love for his club, how he was living such a distance at the time yet that distance didnt dim his pride for his team, his club had formed a JV with the magpies, how I thought he was looking forward so much to his first first venture to his clubs spiritual home, Leichhardt oval, posts of his clubs former great players, how he loved the glory days of the 80's, posts just reeking of love and passionand pride about Laurie nichholls, posts where i thought I could feel a genuine lifelong association between said fan and club despite a seperation of many many miles. Must of been all BS.

The some pussy arrives on the scene and thats suddenly cut by half. Dunno how you can do that. Have some conviction, stick up for your beliefs.

Staunch?

Dont seem like it....you really had me fooled unit. Your choice.

At least the ex panthers fan dumped them totally, she aint sitting on the fence.

 

[Mish]

and she didnt change cos of Sattler either... she changed cos the management of the club was rooted as she has tried to drum into my head for years...

actually nothings changed it is still rooted only thing thats changed is I've taken my blinkers off and can see what a joke Penrith management is now.

and yes i expect ill cop all the criticism and name calling too.. ive heard it from one or two people before and i expect i'll hear it again, whatever.. what ever floats ya boat.

 

[themanonthehill]

Geez I don't like the fact shannon mcdonnell has been resigned for 3 yrs .. i might follow the storm this year. Oh but hang on they've let matt king go .. sh*t management there too. I might brush them. I might support the broncos instead. Oh hang on they let petero go. More ordinary management. Lucky the tigers had great management in 04 when we were fortunate enough to sign the like of Graham et al.

No matter how sh*t or how f**ked the management is you don't change teams. If you feel that strongly run a ticket for the board and vote the jokers off. Did any of us jump ship through the Radison Maine debacle, the Herbal World c**k ups etc.

Or maybe the real reason you all flocked over was cos we nicked boy wonder Ben Reynolds ??
