Mcguire can go and get ********ed for all I care. The king of spin and bullsh t!

Mr Spin better bloody pull his bloody finger out or else he'll be out on his arse. He is being watched closely!

Sitting in front of plasma screens and stuffing round on playstations and table tennis dont win games of football. Soft life = soft football!

Collingwood Football Club mates.

Its all about the footy. No achievement or even progress is apparent in this area under mcguires reign. Thats my beef and reason why alternatives need to be explored. The great democracy of collingwood is not in a healthy way when board members like kevin rose ( director of football? ffs!) are re elected unopposed and uncontested!
 
Yes well aware, piesforeva is a serial troll you may also know him from his appearances on Hotrods board as the Dalai Llama.
Lunatic with a bizarre obsession with Eddie (even worse than most of BF)

Yeah I'm a lunatic because I dont bag the coach or the president... but evidently disloyalty is viewed as some bizzare form of love of the club.... happy to stay a lunatic than be a cop out like you

I dont think the plasma screens and playstations is a bad thing, unless players are ditching training/pre season workouts for it. If anything it's probably something that'll keep players around the club when they're not training, which can only be a good thing.

andnoacheivement or progress during mcguires reign??? are u forgetting about consecutive GF's?? ok it aint a premiership, but it is an achievement nethertheless

Well guess what you impotent whiner?... footy starts with infrastructure and it is not Eddie's job to coach them to a premiership or kick the winning goal from 70 metres out... he took a club 3 million in debt with the worst facilities in the league and turned it into the richest club in the land with state of the art sporting facilities, managed a deal so that the MCG built us a stand and a social club at no expense and lifted the membership to over 40 thousand.

And your contribution so far?..... whining like a schoolgirl because things aren't happening quick enough for you..... we lost a premiership by 9 points to a team that had a million dollars worth of extra champions and before last years GF we were the only club that had beaten them in a final... so go p1ss and moan elsewhere... i suggest the Carlton forums where you can feel at home
 
2 Grand Final appearences in his time
Lexus Centre
Sponsors falling over themselves to get on our jumper
Move to MCG
MCG Collingwood social club
$4 million in the bank

That is not spin it is fact which cannot be disputed.

There are at least 13 other clubs that can only dream about those achievements

And I ain't an MM fan, but Eddie's handling of everything at the minute is top shelf and should be commended.

He uses the Footy Show to vent his frustration at the lies that the newspapers SPIN. Oppo fans see this as a conflict of interest somehow, but any Prez can have his say in the spotlight. Ed just loves it more!

Ever heard of the Adelaide Crows?

Make a $1m plus profit in a bad year.

Just for the sake of clarity, where did Murray post what you quoted him on.
I read this thread 4 times and I can't see where he said Collingwood was the "richest club in the land"

Did you just add some words and the say Murray said them.

Tut tut naughty boy

Collingwood do it better than any other footy club in Australia. They could sure teach Port a thing ot two. Well done to Eddie, I admire him and I wish he was at Port.
Adelaide is such a backward city we need a touch of the real Magpies and some of the Eddie flare.
Well done Collingwood, you are the best.

Gee thanks Magpiespower, we appreciate your support

there are 2 clubs who dreamt of AND achieved more than that

1. Brisbane - 3 premierships

2. Power - 1 premiership

that's what true clubs + supporters live for - anything less than that is a waste of a season - ask geelong, st. kilda who had good seasons last year.

No one remembers who came 2nd, 3rd, 4th, or who made a bloody profit !!!@

Yes that's right, but that is not what the topic is about.

The main point was it should be ALL about Footy, not the other things.
I was saying that those other things are also very important to the club, and they were done by Eddie - See how it works.
But I understand you are probaly from Adelaide

Now let's try a little maths

I said 13
You put in another 2
Collingwood is the orther 1.
Now if we add them all together see if you can work out the answer.

Hint: It is the same number as there are teams in the AFL.
