Mark Maclure's bias

[wicksy]

This.


Now granted I was born in '86 so thankfully missed the late 70s/early 80s.
I love his DGAF attitude, but he also has a way of being able to laugh at himself which I find endearing.

I f@#$% love your avatar mate... Now that's endearing!!

How is he not wrong? We are number 1 for attendance. Isn't that the definition of being wrong? Saying the most attended team in the league is being abandoned by their fans?

Hence why I said "in comparative terms"... ie comparative to our usual attendance, he is not wrong.

Like most of us veterans I have disliked Maclure for ever.
But
Pre 1990 when talking about some non Pie players, he had stated strongly that some players only have 1 flag in them.
At that time I couldn't relate to the comment but now I can.
The 1990 boys didn't play in another winning finals game of any type after their success.
Enough has been written about our post 2010 (2011) success but there is probably some who had only 1 flags worth of dedication in 'em.

Implied that Collingwood fans were abandoning them this year because we're going 'nowhere'

We are easily the most attended team this year (45000+)
Richmond 2nd (41000), Carlton 6th (30 thousand and change)

Needs to either control his bias or get on twitter so he can be shirtfronted

Hmmm!
Who did McClure play for again?

Remind me what it was that Maclure said again. Something about crowds wasn't? 17,644 there goes our crowd average in 2016 lol.

Compare why people don't love St Kilda

The Bulldogs have self respect. Eventhough they lose they still have a crack.

I think it's because when St Kilda actually go alright their fans act like they're ****ing Man U and the flag is a shoe-in, only to be massively disappointed in delicious fashion.

In comparative terms, he's not wrong...crowds are f@#&$% this year. I like the man. Says it how it is. Loves his Blues and isnt afraid to throw shade on their rivals but so what..... We'd do the same.

We don't get paid for it while we're supposed to be unbiased.

You know what... Cry me a river.
Use your remote and watch something that doesn't offend you.

Ignore the facts... He's just a biased Carlton flog....

That depends. Does wicksy put the lotion on his skin? Or am I gonna have to get the hose again?

He's a clueless old campaigner who can never back up his opinion with facts.
