I couldn't give a damn who writes it. It has Eddie's name on it. Therefore Eddie wrote it. Perception is reality. Until I see an article written in Frank's name then Eddie writes them all as far as I'm concerned.
It does bring up and interesting thought though.....if a defamation suit was brought against one of ed's articles would he pass the buck to his "ghost writer"?? I doubt it....that is why everything written must be from the man himself, whether in cohoots with others or not.
My oxygen is Collingwood. Without it I die.

Poor Frank "Grimey" McGuire.

Its about time the public started to wake up to the fact that Eddie in fact does nothing. He just lives off the back of this poor hard-working man, a man of so little recognition - Frank (or Grimey as he likes to be called).

For MargOz and anyone else who is interested......

NOW IT'S WHOA-WODIN
An open memo to the Melbourne Football Club.
Subject: Shane Woewodin
Dear Demons, in case you've forgotten, Shane won a Brownlow Medal, played a key role in getting into a Grand Final, has been a magnificent ambassador for the game and your organisation, and was one of your supporters' favourite players.
You did the deal to sign him to his contract, you did the deals to sign the other players at your club, and ultimately you did the deal to get rid of him, despite Woewodin's offer to take a pay cut.
You also decided to reveal his confidential contract details on your website.
What you do with your club champions is up to you, except, he's no longer one of yours. He's one of ours. He is a Collingwood man now.
Please refrain from using our player as your scapegoat. You made your decision. Live with it.
Your actions have upset our player, Back off.
As for president Gabriel Szondy's call for all wages to be on the public record, players are under enough scrutiny as it is without a further incursion into their everyday rights as citizens.
They are footballers, not politicians.
Surely the recent attempt to kidnap the family of soccer star David Beckham has shown that we need to protect people rather than open their lives to further invasion.
In the meantime. Woewodin and all his colleagues and supporters at the Collingwood Football Club eagerly await round 11, June 9, at the MCG
Best Wishes, Eddie
BE LOUD...BE PROUD
(September.... we WERE there)

Thanks Cobood, excellent stuff Eddie! Is OUR Prez good or what!
Without being condescending, Eddie is like a big kid. Pride and Passion is what it's all about. I bet every other team's supporters in the comp knows the name of our President. Do you know the others? I don't know many and I don't care, OURS is the best.
Go Pies!
