Okay, I can't resist putting my two cents worth in! I'm a social club member and I have a reserved seat with the members at both Colonial and the G. I hear what everyone's saying about supporters/members who 'bag' their players (one of my real hates!) but you can't generalise about people you've never met just because of the type of membership they have.
I literally have to scrape the dollars together each year to afford my Captains Membership - but I love my Club and I'll do whatever it takes (within reason! LOL!) to pledge my support. And regardless of where I'm sitting I still scream, yell and cheer our boys on - win, lose or draw.
Unfortunately there is a minority of supporters who for some idiotic reason get some stupid thrill out of rubbishing their own players. They shouldn't even be called supporters! But please don't put all of us social club members in the same basket. I started as a junior supporter of the club and then spent 12 years in the cheer squad before becoming a social club member. I'm definitely no better than any other wonderful Pie supporter. And in fact one of the things I love about being a fanatical Magpie supporter is being a part of the "Collingwood family".
Let's stick together and enjoy the ride back to the top where we belong.
GO PIES!

What happened to the after match function this week?

Yes well said marg we have all had our say on this one so lets move on....the only way to stop pretend collingwood supporters from doing this is to tell them whilst they are feeling brave up in a top tiered stand is to go and get stuffed you would be better of following richmond.
