Well said Tess and FF. This should never be the case with a proud grass roots club such as ours. With the current state of affairs re: our on field performances, this only looks worse.It is a great shame and one that needs addressing. Its time the administation of the club starts to hear our voices and becomes more accountable.
Enjoy yourself. Its later than you think!

That was the bit that got me!

Stuff the supporters.......we have to look after our major sponsors!

Well, once you've stuffed the supporters enough times, you won't have them.

temperature rising..... blood almost boiling...

It's a simple case of publicity again. More publicity means more sponsors means more money. It wasn't wrong giving them a jumper as this is a corporate league we next have in existence. However, it is full on disrepect to not deliver on promises. Integrity CFC seems to be lacking.

You can only kick the horse in the guts so many times before it will kick back.

I don't think it has been that bad. The Western Magpies are yes waiting for their jumper and poster, but everything else we have asked for we have recieved almost straight away. I think that people may be gettingn a bit aggitated with the club due to our on field performances. I mean who would be happy after watching that s**t two weeks in a row. I think Eddie will get the picture that the supporter groups aren't happy, but give him time, he does have a very big job in front of him.
We should just wait and it will get to us, just try to support our boys and hopefully get a win on the board!!

No wonder you used a JFK quote, that was when we won our second last flag.
