Anyone noticed the same people who once called us a 'laughing stock' and 'a joke' now love us or tell us they love watching us like they are now coming along for the ride? LOL. Do we need pseudo supporters from other clubs living through our return to the top half of the Ladder?
I recently told a family member who caned us for years to get off the Tiggy Bandwagon because I remember he slammed us for decades. I wore his barbs, but I'm not wearing his new love for us. Call it selfish, but I'm the one who's done the hard yards all these years.
And there is this perception that Richmond people are coming out of the woodwork now. What's that about? Gee I saw a lot of Richmond people at the football for the past 30 years when we were getting smacked every week. I think us Richmond people know we've always been passionate, always gone to games, always supported. I hate this wrong perception.
Anyone else have stories of this new hypocrisy, where haters now loves us?
