Yes I do kiddo. With supporters with attitudes like yours it's a wonder the club has survived these last few years in the cellar.
At least some of us recognise our captains ability, and his loyalty to the club.
I was here on the year when we won our first wooden spoon.
I was here deflecting all the crap and defending our club true.
I have bought 3 silver memberships for the past few years just so I could lend a helping hand.
I've been to every Carlton game played in Melbourne ever since the rot started, did not leave a single game even when we were pumped.
I was one of the Blues supporters on this board who stuck with Lance through thick and thin, knocking off trade suggestions because he is still a worhty player for the club.
I was one of the Blues supporters on this board who wanted him to be captain ahead of Stevens.
Don't you dare question my loyalty to Carlton. Because if you do, I will scorch you until your sub-atomic particles no longer exist.
You start questioning my loyalty and support, I say you have no clue. Lance's poor performance and my criticism of him has nothing to do with loyalty to the club, or to him for that matter. I'll stick by him regardless, but the reality is, if he doesn't improve and doesn't provide the leadership required in the next month or two, then he needs a stint in the twos. The club will always be greater than the individual, he fails to peform up to standard for a long time, then a kid should take his place on the field until he improves. It's the same with every other player.
I'm confident he will improve, but if he doesn't by Round 6 at least, then it is a big worry. Are we going to continue to accept mediocre performance? If we're ever going to improve we have to stamp out poor performances - if that means dropping our captain for one or two weeks if he continues with it, then so be it.
But when it comes to bagging my support for the club I love, you cross the line. And I will annihilate you if you do.
