From A Bomber To A Blue

[thylacine60]

Interesting tale of a bloke who changed teams. Essendon to Carlton, surely a unique occurrence.

Just what we need...A turncoat bomber

He's right about one thing - "Fever Pitch" is a brilliant book, and recommended to any footy fan.

Otherwise, I can't imagine anything our club could do that would make me support another. Let's not knock him back though, maybe we can turn the whole family!

Here I was thinking this thread was going to praise the greatest footballer of all time (Jordan Bannister)

Nope. Not Glenn Hawker either.

What an asset

That guy just broke one of the major man-rules. You never, ever change football teams (unless there are very specifically defined circumstances). It just never happens.

You don't change to your mortal enemy under any circumstances!

No-one cutting him any slack under the "Better Late Than Never" idiom?

 

[Bluegene]

What a moron... Sheedy's time was going to end eventually

 

[Thrawn]

The fool.

But... that said, 1 more member.

 

[Dima]

Cut the guy some slack, he's finally seen the light

If he was leaving us, we would say don't let the door hit you in the arse on the way out. He is coming to us and I know we have a couple of others on this board that have done likewise, so welcome aboard. Remember that changes are inevitable but support must remain constant.

Maybe deep down in his heart he never was a Bomber man and really only followed his father, grandfather etc by supporting the bombers.

Kinda like a gay man who only comes out at the age of 40 whilst spending his first 40 years sleeping with girls and deep down knowing sleeping with girls is not what he wants to do.

Correction, was a Bomber, now a Blue. He was a gay man now gone straight.

My apologies.. from pillow biter to ...... pokin the rough

As another well meaning thread sails into the distance..............

 

[Silvagnis]

Is this thread about Celtic_Pride?

Maybe I should swap teams to support Essendon and even the ledger.

 

[HBF]

I couldn't imagine following a different AFL club. Changing camps would be impossible to do. Someone needs to mention to this bloke that any AFL club is bigger than any one individual.

 

[Silvagnis]

This Bantick clown should go to Carlton games with AstroToby and Celtic_Pride.

 

[Beloved]

Silly man, but he's a Blues supporter now so... it's hard to hold anything against him.

 

[saladin]

in all seriousness, have you ever heard such a moronic story as this bloke? he leaves a club because they have not renewed the contract of a bloke whose been there for 27 years, and chooses another club who've removed their contracted coach pretty much the same week !!!!!!!!!!!!!???????????????? We (essendon) are better off without the likes of this fool, and so are Carlton. i wonder how strong his loyalty will be to anyone?

 

[Charbzilla]

i wonder if this bloke would have supported Melbourne, if Sheeds was chosen there.

All good though! Another member singing our song!
