Dear Mark...

[Shane Hird]

stander,tony derangy and (bossco for agreeing with them) why don't you all get f------!


Pathetic little attention seeking antics. Sticking up for poor Bolts and slaying down any mortal soul who dares to bag an ESSENDON football player.

We don't have to like every player that represents the EFC.

Like little kids. In fact NOT like kids. Even kids can spot a dud footballer.

Do what you want,but u all sound ridiculous defending MB. Waste of time.


What isn't a waste of time is...calling for Bolton to be de-listed and out of our lives for good.


Mark Robinson..you can get f-----ed too.

 

[bossco]

No, we wouldn't and nor would Mark Robinson or any other jerno.

The local milkbar isn't a viable medium to air your frustrations/opinion.

I've never seen a jerno tell Kevin Sheedy he should be sacked in a press conference, yet I've seen a number of articles published about it. Does that make them cowards too?

The Internet is a medium to share your opinion to a broader range of people that what wouldn't otherwise be the case. Sharing your opinion doesn't make you a coward, it never has.

Mindlessly slagging off an individual is most definately cowardly, but for the best part, that doesn't happen.

The fact is, for the majority of footy fans, we don't have the opportunity to front Mark Bolton, Kevin Sheedy or anyone else, nor do we have a newspaper column. If that opportunity presented itself, I'm sure a lot would offer their opinion. For the time being however, we have to settle for water cooler/pub talk and footy forums.

Do you think that there are no repercussions for journalists after they publish a story? I've seen Sheeds question journalists many times about something they have written. The coaches do it all the time. And sharing your opinion anonymously has always been considered cowardly, i'm not having a go at anyone, we all do it.

Longy, what was that you were saying...."Mindlessly slagging off an individual is most definately cowardly, but for the best part, that doesn't happen."

There are only repercussions if there is an avenue to do so.
Jerno's can put themselves in a position to do so, some do, a lot don't.

I've never once heard a jerno tell Sheedy he should be sacked or that Mark Bolton is no good.

We don't have an avenue to question Sheedy or the players.

One post out of 53 would testify that for the best part, it doesn't happen.

Robo does it all the time whenever he shitcans a player, whether its in the press radio, or interview.He doesn't hide behind anonymity. You have the option of putting your name to a slice of the criticism going Boltons way. But you choose not to. So you are hiding, just as Bossco has explained. Is that clear. Thanks in advance.

You must have been the little prick who kept falling off his cans under the windsock in 1979, and cried all afternoon that he couldn't see.

I'm happy to wear that tag, but what you've failed to realise is that you're no different/better.

If I'm hiding, if I'm a coward, then so are you and everyone else on here. I'll wear it, will you?

I don't have the option to front Mark Bolton.
There is no medium for me to do that. You're comparing chalk and cheese.

And if you care to read a bit more carefully you will realise I wasn't speaking of Robbo specifically, but jerno's in general. You see, Robbo made a generalisation, so I thought it was only fair I did the same.

You're welcome.

Hmmmm....

So you're happy to label a poster.

Yet if I said Mark Bolton shouldn't be on our list, I'm a coward?

I haven't failed anything- I agreed with Robbo in the first place. You didn't.

Do you need a medium. He's at Windy Hill every week.

What is wrong with you? You keep bagging Longy for hiding a behind his user name when he critises Bolton. Do you not realise the irony in you bagging Longy under the user name of Stander. As Longy has said, if he is a coward then every bigfooty member is a coward.

For the sake of expediency- go to post numbers 30 and 52 on this thread.
