Now is when you are needed most

[thebigboy]

Essendon supporters can now go 2 ways.

Start to "eat their own"

Or get behind the club for the rest of the year, however long that will be.

EVERY member voted in these board members

Whether you like the decision or not, whether you believe it was handled correctly or not, it has happened.

Sheedy knew there was a good chance this would happen all year, we have now found out.

He's not spitting the dummy is he?

Sheedy has not been sacked, we are not renewing his contract!!!!

Sheeds and Essendon are honouring their contracts, very admirable and the way Essendon should conduct themselves.

What would you be saying IF we waited until the end of the year to not renew his contract and by then we were left with the bottom of the barrel as far as replacement coaches go?

IF you have a problem with the board and the way they have handled things, you will get a chance at the next elections to have your ultimate say.

Until then SUPPORT the club and turn up to every game you can and cheer for YOUR Bombers as you always have.

You will be sadly missed Sheeds but OUR club will go on

Brilliant Post.

100% Correct!

WELL SAID!!
Cmon people, lets have some confidence in the decisions our board make and get behind the club.
Its probably the toughest decision they have had to make and they can't please everyone.
Lets really enjoy our last games with Sheedy at the helm and embrace that the idea that the club will go on, we have an opportunity to make some changes and who knows, a premiership might be closer than you think.

Great thread merv i couldnt agree more

I actually tend to side with Zark on this issue. I just cannot believe whats happenned. I'll continue to support the club but this wasn't the way i saw Sheedy leaving.

 

[adamcf]

Go barrack for Richmond Minglis..

Great post btw Merv Decision needed to be taken. And I feel it was done the right way.

Does anyone believe that Sheedy would leave, upon a cloud.. floating into the distance?

 

[red+black]

Moving Sheedy on

The board's methods

The next 6 weeks

2008 and beyond

It's all good.

 

[David_Hilley#19]

Im not leaving - just discontinuing my financial support. They are not one and the same. As such there will be no returning involved

This is the question you have to ask yourself do you support sheeds or Essendon football club. With sheeds now gone we are vulnerable, but you must understand from here anything is possible.

Great post Merv.
At the end of the day the club is bigger than its legends even if those legends helped form part of what the club is.

 

[M29]

I didn't mean to impugn your loyalties, Merv, but a club is made up of individuals. I don't know what I'm supporting if not those individuals.

I certainly didn't vote these donkeys in, and you can bet I'll be voting them out.

And voting for who exactly? What will that achieve?

 

[danzan22]

Completely agree
We are all going to miss sheedy but we have to keep moving on, we have to support the club and keep the futur bright.
