Clash Strip Bedwetters going beserk on the Hun site

[Pie eyed]

The hun story (beatup) about Collingwood being the only club who's fans do not support a "Clash Strip" is really getting the ####wits out and about.

Most are whinging that North are being forced to wear their clash strip to a home game against Collingwood....forced by whom?
My answer to all of them is.....tell your clubs to grow some balls.
You don't have to wear clash strips and you can wear your traditional jumper anytime. Collingwood are certainly not going to complain like a mob of whining little girls if you do. We don' t care what colors you wear so long as they are not black and white.
The AFL wanted you to adopt clash strips and your clubs accepted it.
Your problem not ours....and certainly not Eddies.

You know why most other clubs shut up and accept it though? Because we give them so much cash. They are prostitutes, do prostitutes complain when paid? No. Example, Sydney v Pies clash, every year they get the gate. Biggest gate of the year for them. Example, Queens Birthday, 2 winos asleep in the Botanical Gardens draw a bigger crowd than Melbourne most weeks, they get the gate against us. Then clubs like Carlton were broke, until bailed out by convicted crimminal mates, and they sold their colours just like a prostitute sells their bodies, for a fistful of dollars. They are the desperate clubs of the comp who will do anything for money, and we are supposed to care?

So when do prostitutes complain? After they have been paid and they realise that what they have done is dirty and that they have sold their souls. Too late prostitute club supporters, you allowed the pimps in charge of your clubs, and the AFL, to trade your souls and now rely on toe rags like The Sun for a voice! Pathetic and laughable. Guess what, we have a voice at Collingwood, our President and the fact we support a team in bigger numbers than any other in Australia. Even the pimps at the AFL don't bash their own customers or wreck the best looking piece of merchandise they own.

So can other clubs supporters just lie back, look at the roof and think of your clash strip, the gate, or the bail out money we have earnt for clubs like the Bulldogs, who would have been lucky to have been playing VFL but for Collingwood.

We don't have to, and we like it that way. :p

lol at the prostitution analogy.

[Smoky]

Sydney Swans dont have a clash strip... yet everyone just wants an excuse to beat up on the Pies.

Just the way we like it.

My Best mate and i (who I dont see very often due to living in a different state) went on a bit of a bender on friday and at one point of the early hour of the morning he said to me imagine life without Collingwood... imagine you were born into a different family who brainwashed you to barrack for another team... how would you feel about Collingwood,,,

I took a moment to think about his comment and tried to imagine myself as barracking for another club... the only words that came out of my mouth were "If I barracked for someone else... I'd just want to barrack for Collingwood" - I just feel sorry for these people who dont understand how much our club - being hated by everyone else makes us love our club more! They're just jealous.

Eventually Collingwood will be forced to wear a clash jumper from the AFL (due to hysteria from other clubs) - but will Sydney have to do the same?

You have to like that analogy....

[Snag Breac]

Frederlick, I think you're being unfair to prostitutes comparing them to Carlton. Protitutes are often desperate individuals with few choices and fewer resources. Carlton is a sporting entity, with, reportedly, a proud tradition, thousands of supporters, many employees and influential board members, and a corporate strructure. It's also affiliated with the AFL etc. It's not helpless and alone, so it doesn't have the usual mitigating circumstances; which means it's worse that a whore of either gender.:p

Snag you are right, I was totally wrong to defame honest working prostitutes by comparing them to Carlton. I think they just love being treated like the smutty crims that support their club. In the immortal words of PM Dudd, "Whores of Australia, I'm sorry!" :(

I'm on Collingwood's side on this one as I think clash strips are a joke. I hope Collingwood stand by their stance as it will continue to lobby the idea that the jumper is sacred and clash strips are, for the most part, unnecessary

Too right Mr Catster. Umpires need only wear fluro green. Home club dark shorts, away team light shorts. Voila, we remove the need for one consultant's salary and the ridiculous cash cow of merchandising. The money for clash jumpers could be put to good use (it could even fund a new hot dog stand at Arden St...)

[magpiewarrior]

What do you all mean we don't have a clash strip, what about the inside-out jumper that Scotty wore at the post match media conference?

[DJ Black @ White Blood]

Just added this to another thread but may be more relevent here

My Grandfather wore black and white, my father wore black and white, i wear black and white and now my 5 year old son wears black and white. And they are all striped. I want my sons kids to also wear black and white. I watched the 1977 grandfinal on a black and white tv and had no problems. So to hell with anyone who wants us to change. No match/game is more important then our traditional colors. Once you allow change you will never get it back. If we had to change i wouldnt expect the supporters to have to boycott the game the bloody players, coach and staff should not turn up to stick it up em. The world is changing every day but my black and white jumper will never change its the most sacred thing in our lives.

Couldnt' have said it better myself.

My thoughts

No one club is bigger than the AFL is a phrase that gets thrown around a lot. It's simply not true. Collingwood is bigger than the AFL. No one club is bigger than Collingwood should be the new phrase.

Love your work and love the passion. "There are 2 types of football supporters, Collingwood supporters and those who wished they were"

Eddie has already publicly whinged
stating he would hire a large TV screen and tell all collingwood supporters to boycott the North game .

sorry to blow the illusion .

[mattys123]

Eddie didnt whinge, he stood up for the clash jumper that we do bloody well have, and said that if north wouldnt stick to an in good faith deal, that we would hit them where it hurts. (the bank)

If you dont have the balls to display which team you barrack for, dont attack a president of a club please.

Here's your "illusion" idiot.

Reda my post with out superimposing your interpretation....

Collingwood will not wear anything but our colors, Black and White, clash or no clash.

North, and whoever else wants to can wear a clash strip when they feel the need.

If North decide to wear their "real" jumper at their homegame, Collingwood and Eddie will not whinge....you get it. Collingwood are not on the "clash strip" bandwagon and never will be.


Do you get it now?

Eddie's call to boycott attendance was in relation to North or the AFL trying to force us to wear a non- existent jumper.

What Eddie and Collingwood are saying to the other clubs and the AFL is...
For 100 years there was never a problem with jumper clashes, even in driving rain and mud and on Black and White TV then all of a sudden some half-witted TV exec and the AFL's marketing lick-spittle decided they could suck some more cash out the game.

Eddie and Collingwood said "no deal, **** you"
and quite rightly so.


Why would you care anyway, you don't have a club with a clash strip to worry about.

[andy1988]

Eventually Collingwood will be forced to wear a clash jumper from the AFL (due to hysteria from other clubs) - but will Sydney have to do the same?


Does anyone else's jumper even clash with Sydney's?

[Smoky]

Does anyone else's jumper even clash with Sydney's?

Just like the fact that Collingwood and North jumpers dont clash!

[eddiesmith]

Essendon now supports a clash strip? Yeah right :rolleyes:

No Collingwood clash strip required!
North should tweak their home and away like the Pies did in '01 and '07.

Pies home: wear their mostly black strip (since 2001).
North away: wear a mostly white away strip.

North home: wear a mostly blue home strip.
Pies home: wear their mostly white strip (since 2007).
