MCG - Collingwood supporters are always outnumbered there

[bazdaddy]

Clement how can YOU be critisising our support when YOU have done nothing but take a massive shit on the heart of this club since you have joined. Absoloutely stinks of hypocrosy.

It was a Richmond home game, still many members who only buy 11 game memberships and only attend home matches, just had to look at how empty the ponsford was

we did chant its just F all people join in and thats the problem what else do we do to promote chanting than encourage it, we need to get rid of the coffee drinkers and bring in the hardcore pies fans who wanna make noise it will spur on the pies

What's wrong with coffee?

[Zakal]

hehe well there was only 49,000 people there....id worry about "getting those hardcore pie fans in" before i worried about kicking anyone out. hehe


Bit of a piss-poor turnout considering who was playing....but i would bet my house on the wooden spooners not being able to ACTUALLY outnumber Collingwood...even if we wernt equal 3rd.

Coffee's better with a good slug of whisky in it.

I see, it's the alcohol which makes you a better barracker. No wonder we were outnumbered lol

[magpie_born_and_bred]

lol well we know the richmond supporters are drunk scumbags but i dont mind people drinking in our area if they are not violent or abusive to anyone and just want to enjoy the chanting, anyne who does that can get out but we need a big band of people who want to chant all day long and we need it in numbers, theres enough who would be wanting to, its getting them all in the one area, thats what its like at the soccer except nearly the entire ground chants.

Why is it that every thread you post Clement, nothing positive is ever mentioned.

I travel down to Melbourne fairly regularly to watch us play, and I actually always see more Collingwood supporters than any other (maybe sometimes Essendon would outnumber us), from sitting in the corporate box. I can understand the lack of spirit in the cheersquad the last 2 - 3 years. Every game I go to in Melbourne, the cheersquad atmosphere sucks, but every time I go to an interstate game eg: Sydney, it's crazy.

I can fathom why lately every time I open up this forum, it's another whinge thread. The spirit here is poor, because of comments like these.

If you don't like the number of our supporters every week, then go join another club who has more fans turn up to games. I'm not having a go at you, I just constantly fail to read anything positive from yourself, and now, others as of late.

You travel down for one game here or there and have become a part of the latte Sydney sect.

Well let me tell you here in Melbourne, in the Mecca of footy. The Collingwood footy club is struggling and their supporter base is not helping as like you, they have morphed into people who treat the club like it is something that they can treat without much respect.

There were lots more Richmond supporters there last night and the only chant which we heard was Richmond, Richmond..

When the pies got infront in the third quarter there was NOTHING from our fans. No chant, no passion, no nothing.

How can you possibly comment if you weren't there???

Please stick to things Sydney people know like Rugby and getting caught in traffic jams.

[magpie_born_and_bred]

lol ur goin a bit far clemo but lets make sure we fire up friday and make the MCG a fearful place for neitz and his latte drinking dees ok, come down to the squad if you have THE PASSION!

Ok here's my 2 bobs worth!!! First if we want to be prominent and like shown as a group the Pies end of the ground behind the goals should be Pies fans only entry no other supporters that will get the group situo then all who r there should barrack for there side by either chanting waving somethink or however you barrack but most definitely when a goal is kicked or comin close everybody should go crazy it maybe more noisey when a crap free is given that is the noise that's needed it does happen when a game is close but more the better i say again and area of so a 1000 seat should be Pies only every game at the G even for away games so as they can be together... its promoted and sold I mean I asked when I went to a few games last year at the business end and especially in a ticketmaster agency you ask yep wanna seat where all the Pies supporters are they have no idea hmmmmmm ok more worths!!!!
Canga!!!

Do you think you could repeat that in something closely resembling English?
