Bombers President is an idiot

[sandie]

How do other Bomber supporters feel about our Presidents insensitive comments on the Footy Show last night about what he will do if we lose the GF.
I am dumbfounded & hope that it will not affect the teams performance tomorrow.
Club Presidents should be banned from talking to the media.

[Derek]

We know Sandie. And I agree but I don't think he realised (BUt someone would have told him i'm sure)

 

[sandie]

So Derek do you think it could affect the game?

Pooboy I give up!!!!!! You are way too clever for me......

Sheedy said the exact same line a few weeks back after a match. I cringed.

It is a pretty common thing to say but considering the circumstances from earlier this year - poor taste, but that's what you get if you speak b4 you think.

 

[Eagle_Fan]

If it's what I think, that's really unfortunate. I hope those affected weren't offended...

Just goes to to show foot-in-mouth catches us all some time.

 

[sandie]

Please!!!!!!!!
The people who know what I'm talking about, don't say what we're referring too, the less people that know the better.

What the *#%@ are these red-and-black clowns talking about?

 

[JUBJUB]

I didn't even know ESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSENDON had a president.I thought there was only 3 AFL presidents -John 'PIGS ARSE' Elliott ,Eddie 'I love Buckley' & Joe 'show me the money ' Gutnik.

 

[Arch]

TigerTank,

I would tell you cos you are a fellow Tiger supporter but I have NO IDEA! I just thought I would say that so that it looked like I had some sought of an idea.

That's pathetic.

I watched the tape today and I personally thought the Essendon President was the worst public speaker! He mumbled and grunted his words, and he seemed to be very bored and uninterested when Eddie asked him a question.

 

[mtffafl]

I know some of the people involved who were watching...

They were less than impressed.

I didn't actually know what you were getting at yesterday Sandie. I thought I knew which part you were talking about but I didn't quite understand why you took such offence to it as it seemed like something anyone would say tongue-in-cheek.

However, last night I learned what happened.

You can only imagine he just lost his thoughts because he was on live tv or something. If he was thinking clearly you wouldn't think he would say something like that.

 

[Richmondfan#1]

Sandie,
No, you are pathetic. It was a harmless comment that I made. You won't even tell us what the President said. But I guess you are just scared of your 'beautiful' reputation.

 

[lunyeung]

sandman... now that the bombers have won the damn thing...

can u please tell us what the prez said??
i didnt catch the show, and some of us would like to know !!

sheesh... 'the less ppl that know about it, the better'... wtf??

 

[dons_r_tops]

I don't think that graham McMahon meant what he said but it is a common turn of phrase, and I was thinking a similar thing but would have used a different term instead.

 

[Slatts]

Have to say, as an Ess supporter, I didn't catch on at first until now. That's pretty disgraceful. I hope the person who would be directly affected by it and their family weren't watching. I hope he apoligises in private to the person and their family.
