I don't hate Collingwood

[Carlo]

Big footy hates Essendon, The General(normal) Public don't.

 

[Stifler's mom]

Carlton #1
Swans #2 (and the AFL by extension for allowing blatant cheating)
Daylight #3

Big footy hates Essendon, The General(normal) Public don't.

Wrong, very wrong. Nobody likes Essendon for the crap they have put this game through.

Unfortunately I don't see it the same way you do - prostitution is a job. Nothing more - just like you (I presume) and I go to work everyday. Geelong receives funding from the afl as well, does that make them prostitutes as well - strange analogy tbh but I can't change the way you think, so you run with it.

As for the "mock" avatar, it would seem that skepper and bobby have a serious hawk obsession - help I'm sure is available for that.

I don't think it makes any difference how you phrase it (i.e. getting 'paid'), the fact is you are indeed selling your home games. You have no business in tassie, the hawks have no more or less ties to the apple isle than the saints yet the stk chose not to 'get paid' (read: not sell their games for profit).

Okay

It's embarrassing that a struggling team like the Saints has more dignity than a supposed BIG club. *shrugs*

 

[smasha]

I Love... that you all hate us.

Everyone here likes you.

I actually think the whole Collingwood hatred thing is a myth, built in a major part by Collingwood themselves to develop an us versus them mentality. That said, it is pretty safe that a lot of non-Collingwood (and even some Collingwood) supporters hate the current Collingwood President.

Realistically I think the most hated club in Victoria is Essendon. The fans are the worst in Victoria comfortably and the way the club has acted over the last 18 months is a disgrace. If anyone other than Hird had been coach they would've been sacked, so why did Essendon save an unproven coach? Because Paul Litte and over 50% of the EFC board have pictures of him at home and get warm fuzzy feelings when they look at it.

Spot on.

 

[Smoky]

Spot on.

Yet we still win the poll that this thread was started about?

Good conspiracy therory

 

[The Falcon Strike]

Being from WA I don't get the Collingwood hate. For games I have been to, Carlton are much worse.

My hatred was always South Freo.

The disrespect though at the moment is Essendon through and through. A narcissistic collection of knobs

At least we finally won something.

Mum is a Pie so I have a soft spot.

Until they play the mighty Tigers.

My auntie was a Collingwood cheer squad member in the days of McKenna in the early 70s.

Very similar clubs in a way with our roots.

Just that Richmond win things in spurts then go shithouse for a while then ,well today the AFL don't want us to win.

 

[smasha]

Bombers are in the poo atm.

Draining all football supporters of life and faith in the sport of AFL.

I suspect the other clubs are very relieved that Essendon got hit with this. I doubt very much that they are the only team who played on the edge with their supplement programs.

 

[MF]

Hawthorn almost twice as hated by the general public than we are.

Seems about right.

 

[Kynge of Begrem]

Judging from some of the ranting loons on the Collingwood board, I reckon about half the respondents who selected 'Collingwood' as the team they hate are probably Collingwood supporters

 

[NorthernLights]

I don't hate your club. You annoy me in a cringe worthy way. It borders on pity.

Sorry, I should have said 'annoyed' rather than hate. The reasons I outlined for you being annoyed at us are pretty spot on I think.

 

[Richard Pryor]

I think a lot of the Collingwood 'hate' is fairly tongue in cheek, like taking the piss out of Tom Jones or something.

It was a simple question. Was is the difference between getting paid to do something and selling something you own to derive an income? Both are essentially the same thing and I have no idea what you were trying to accomplish by going off an irrelevant tangent.

 

[Randy Campbell]

I used to love to hate Collingwood.
But not as much.

 

[Power Raid]

Another AFL survey is completed with confirmation once again that there are a whole lot of people that still dislike Collingwood, but why? They have not been particularly good in the last 50 years, they have not rorted the system, Most of the players I've known (30 years) have been likeable hardworking types, and there has been some serious urban gentrification amongst their supporter group. I think the Collingwood that we are all supposed to hate vanished sometime in the early 90s. I understand, as a result of the ancient rivalry, how Carlton and Essendon fans would hate them, but the rest of us?

I don't hate Collingwood. I probably did 25 years ago, but these days if it has no bearing on my team's position, I don't care if they win or lose.

I think its interesting the lesser likes, in victoria, aren't disliked.

may be being disliked is a positive thing

 

[BombaMan]

Only 3.4% for Sydney? I Thought everyone now hated them because they got Buddy and Tippett? lol.

 

[TradeDraft]

Because of Reputation of Victoria Park

 

[NorthernLights]

Was Victoria Park really that bad?

(I really wish I was old enough to have visited a few of those local grounds for a game.)
