Not targeting anyone individually with this post, but for me it's more reflective of how piss poor the support in this league is rather than the league itself. It's not exclusive to our club either, a large number of football supporters in this country seem to be more than comfortable to throw in the towel on their membership (or simply never sign up for one) unless the club is being run exactly as they feel it should be or is constantly pulling silverware. People are so quick to blame the governing bodies and clubs in this country for the lack of growth in the league, but at the end of the day if you're not willing to put your money where your mouth is and support your club in the stands and in the membership stakes then you're only stunting the growth of your club and in turn your own national competition.

We fucking won, fuck yeah, lids off you cunts, get excited. How soon can we extend wazza?

All the woke twitterazi reckon it was a plant from the No camp haha

21/09/17 A note to let Forum members know that from now on I will be posting FRG meeting notes on here on behalf of an FRG Member. I will put up the notes from the meeting on 28th August 2017 when I return from a short holiday in about 10 days time.

My basic point is that after 30 years or more of time money and effort invested in the game at many levels this person has every right to criticise or whinge. And the put up or shut up notion is wrong in this scenario.

Look he has every right to give up membership or whatever he likes, but imo loses the right to a certain degree of respect from paying members when preaching to everyone about whats good for the game etc. It's hard to take anyone seriously that wants to complain about the clubs, the FFA and what they are doing to the game when they have their own self-interest in front of the club to start with. And look thats ok, some people are just theatre goers, some people lose interest, some have tight budgets, others have kids and family and can't spend the time there. Nothing wrong with any of that. But spare me the bullshit (not aimed at you btw) about not being fair-weather when you stop paying for a membership based on lists, league or club issues.

All those membership figures show is how piss poor the League actually is.

We'll start at a ten year deal and work our way down. LIDS OFF BOYS!!!! we won't drop a game this year, book it.

Do you think he'd take an 8 year deal, or should we go hard to make sure we keep him?

Budzik has managed a couple of nice, accurate long passes. Still finding his range I think.

Just a back strain or similar. Ran around for a bit before being subbed.

How has Budzinski started?

arzani will break the league this year im calling it

Arzani scores from the spot.

Gives us more reason to get worried if we lose RIP MCFC

That article shows part of the intangible Cahill brings to a club. Bloke is a winner, pure and simple. That has to rub off on some one (surely, please)

Sticker worthy?

I received mine a few hours before going overseas. Voted yes and posted it as quick as I could before the yes campaign went full retard and made me change my mind.

Then why are there protests at the presence of any Christian Orientated "No Voter" but not for those of other faiths also urging for PPL to vote the same way?

Yeh i think we'll have to agree to disagree there tbh. Obv you'd want to be a bit smarter (less blunt) around how you say it, but in my book if you want your say to be acknowledged, you pretty much need to be a member.

You should name names on the next podcast But completely agree. I have seen so many comments on how people hate 'franchises' and 'modern football' etc etc but then use bullshit marketing buzzwords like 'building a brand' and 'product' when explaining why they don't or won't sign up, go to games or to criticise a club

100% this. IMO you forfeit your right to whinge somewhat if you're not a member. Doesnt mean your opinion isnt right, but its hard to argue you have the best interests of your club at heart if you're not.

How the fuck could someone be so dumb that they would think headbutting Tony Abbott will help the "Yes" campaign?

.

Wazza still with some holes to fill.

Well I guess anyone that ever wondered why we don't have direct democracy now has their answer.

What a scoop!
