OK OK OK white flag...

fair enough, my board has discussed the various opinions on myself in here and come to the conclusion that parochial barracking is not welcome on this BB...

So from now on i shall be informative, entertaining and very boring. I will be the Wayne Jackson of this BB.

Hence-

-We should sell waverley
-Only eight teams in Melbourne
-Give all our money to the interstate teams
-Fans? only if they are part of a corporation and wear suits
-Grand finals are for the suits only, no supporters or members allowed.

 

[eagleskickass]

is this just stupid or what you really think. I think Waverly is a great ground, much better than colonial. Maybe we should sell colonial and use the money to put a train line to Waverly. YEAH

 

[SS11]

JUST KIDDING mate..

and yes i agree with you FOR ONCE
COLONIAL IS SO F#$@Ed up, would have been better to build a train line to WAVERLEY or more buses..

Colonial is just an absolute corporate stadium i swear...hang on i did swear a couple of sentences ago.

Your allowed to swear at colonial.

Anyway. Why don't you like it?

 

[SS11]

THE REASON I DONT LIKE IT?

ONE REASON: when us general admission fans rock up, or fans who dont book tickets, WE GET SHOVED up the back in the stands AND HAVE TO LOOK AT ALL THE CORPORATE SUIT WEARING PIGS BELOW US..

thats why buddy.....

 

[eagleskickass]

you never know what though, there are some pretty stupid comments some times but I did think he was kidding, just thought I would ask. I hate colonial as it is shocking to watch footy at and play at. I haven't been to the ground to watch a game but my friend has. I am meaning watching on the tele. On a sunny afternoon you can't see from one end to the other and looking into the sun for players when going for the ball is even worse there. And the problems with the ground. So many injuries and slushy games. Not my fav ground

 

[Drakey]

Yeh

Day games suck on TV thats for sure.

SS11 Why don't you book?

 

[SS11]

i dont book because the deal between TICKETMASTER and the AFL to get more money from the average fan like me pisses me off. Like $14 from about 30,000 ppl isnt enough, they then cahrge a booking fee.

Plus i wouldnt give them the pleasure of altering my footy habits of never booking for a game...

 

[Drakey]

What about games against Carlton, Essendon & Fremantle.

You have to book for those don't you?

 

[SS11]

carlton and essendon at the MCG have the lower tier of the southern stand pre-booked, so us fans are shoved up the back as usual for those matchs..

as for FREMANTLE? never has been a problem and never will be..
IM LMAO over that one...

 

[goatmaster]

Colonial has to be the biggest balls up in history. A stadium that T.V built & it's atrocious in the day time on T.V with the shadows. A stadium they had trouble with the surface because they discovered that grass doesn't grow without sun (Wayne Jackson could stun the world by explaining that this is the reason the North & South Pole stdiums had trouble- thank you Wayne)
A stadium designed with the worst exit's of any in the world. If there ever is a fire there it will kill thousands. I wonder if the imaginary people in attendance figures will get counted as dead.
A stadium opened when they knew they had trouble with the roof trusses (the dreaded cracks)
In the general admission level you should get stewardess serving crap meals & giving the safety drill in case it crashes.
A lasting tribute however to the misunderstood greatness of Wayne Jackson
