Way to go, Biodave.
I hope everybody who has the money (it's only $125, I think, for the cheapest membership - a season ticket) becomes a member of the mighty Pies. It's a great feeling being a part of such a fantastic supporter base and club spirit (like no other AFL team). So come on everyone - put your money where your mouth is!!!
Please Stay Faithful PIES

We hear you brother
what a fantastic post to read i've got goosebumps look i know where you are comming from some people just dont understand what this club means to us, besides our immediate family collingwood is the next biggest thing in our lives not a day goes by when at some stage we dont think about collingwood...LOL usually when first waking up the first thought to mind is i wonder if we can win this weekend.
As a child i grew up in the slum areas of melbourne we were poorer than church mice so the expression goes,but we had our collingwood and i tell ya now there was no happier family on a saturday night when collingwood were victors.
But if collingwood lost dear ole mum would crack the shits chronic and im afraid it would be a bowl of half warm soup while she would be in the bedroom sulking.
And dear old dad bless his soul would be shit scared of her,one funny memory was when collingwood got beat in a final we were young at the time and probably didnt have the money to go so we were down at the local scout hall listening to it on radio with dad while he was getting pissed as a mute...well collingwood got thrashed and on the way home dad told us when we get to the corner of our street we were to carry him to the house and put him to bed cause he knew mum would be absolutely pshyco and she was...so it was the seven of us were in bed by 6pm to shit scared to make a noise.....
Any way biodave im pleased that your so happy to become a member
and i like your passion i found it uplifting thats the passion that has carried this club through it's proud history im in love with everything collingwood just like you and you know what we would not want it any other way...
Mate make yourself known at the next collingwood game if you ever want to sit with us in the cheersquad you are indeed most welcome any time at all.
WE MARCH WITH PRIDE,WE MARCH WITH LOVE,WHEN IT COMES TO OUR COLLINGWOOD WE FOREVER MARCH ! we will never forget our great number #42...GO YOU BLOODY PIES yeaaah LETS KICK ASS.lets kill the bloody bastards !!

Biodave,
Great post mate !
It's true with footy - there are no boundaries and no multicultural segmentation. We are one (I'm talking about the Collingwood Football Club. Who gives a rat's clacker about the others...I'm going off the track again....). Anyway, I keeping on harping about it, but nothing's better than being a member of something that you beleive in. Need I say more ?

yeh great post junkboy and joffa. It's a real comfort to know there are others that have been in the same situation. And inevitably it can only be described, in a sense, as 'family.' People who have been through the periods of joy and adversity together find themselves attatched; those are truly the close bonds which keep a family united and strong. Such is the case with the Collingwood Football Club 
(and joffa, thats an irresistable offer; I hope I can meet all of you guys soon.)
But yeh, for those who are still weighing up your choices, I'd advise you to become a member as soon as possible. As Clemo put it, "nothing's better than being a member of something that you beleive in." And its just such a great feeling. So put your money where your HEART is people
bless their courageous hearts
