Well since Miss Magpie has taken 20 I'll have 35 and just sit in the forawrd pocket. Could you please refrain from using me as a stepladder as a full forward use to do that to me in junior footy...he had a unique ability to crash down on me as well......those were the days.....thank goodness i only play cricket now

Yeah i guess its a shame that hardly anyone in the cheersquad new about the footy match between the two cheer squads except of course the usual bunch of about 7 who park there arses down on front row every week and think there mightier than jesus himself.

Can some one please explain why the cheer squad as a whole was not invited ?

Firstly i want to say that i have no personal issues as such with the cheersquad or the people in it as i know Foxy, Joffa, Kerri and others and have no problems with them Image

However i would like to make a few suggestions:

1. The President and Chant Leader and all committee members etc should make a point of introducing themselves to everyone and making all new members feel welcome (this could be happening at present but i thought i would suggest it). They should also actively encourage new ideas and ways to improve the cheersquad.

2. I think the people who use the floggers and take out the banner should be rotated each week to encourage all members to participate. At present to me there seems to be a correlation with people who are perceived to be "higher up" in the cheersquad sitting at the front and having their own little click.

3. Im pretty sure there is a bbq at the start or end of the year. I think this is a great idea and should be more actively promoted. The banner suggestion on Nicks is also a great idea to promote the cheersquad.

The cheersquad in my opinion should be a place where everyone feels welcome and everyone should be treated equally. If people dont feel welcome or are members but feel shy or embarrassed then you are not getting the best out of the cheersquad.

Without being biased in anyway i have to say that Joffa is one of the most approachable people that there is. At the pub at the footy or outside of footy he goes out of his way to make people feel welcome and this is definately something that needs to be encouraged.

These sort of posts have just recently been deleted JLC cos its not really the kinda thing ppl can talk about without arguing so maybe next time keep it off the board mateImageImage Its not neccassary, the feeling welcome thing can go both ways.

I dont see why it would be deleted? Its a discussion board about the cheersquad. I have not been rude in anyway, i have merely expressed an opinion.

Brooke, there is nothing wrong with JLC's post.... and I wont be deleting it.... This is a c/squad forum and as such, suggestions as to how to make the c/squad better are encouraged and appreciated as long as they dont bag anyone or are of a negative nature....

Thanks for the suggestion JLC but it is already in place.... if u feel that it hasnt been successfull its because of the amout of ppl that are in the c/squad and sometimes if new members dont make themselves known.... wot can the few do?? if you or anyone else knows of newcomers I think it would be extremely helpful if on behalf of the c/squad welcomed them and made sure that they are introduced to the appropriate people...

I know I try to do this every week in every way and still dont know half of the c/squad by name..... It really is a mammoth job when you think about it...

Actually while Im at it..JLC it wouldve been good if you had've started a new thread for this....

Thats cool you can always transfer the post into a new topic ? Is that possible ??

I think the introduction part is mainly for the young children who want to join or get a flag etc but are too shy. Wherewas they would feel more comfortable if introduced to someone etc. Maybe its at the point of signing where they need to be introduced. Anyway thats how i felt when i was younger......lo

cheers

The feeling welcome thing can go both ways????


Let me say in feb this year at a comittee meeting ( the last one i attended ) it was myself who suggested we have a welcoming committe, this was recorded in the minutes,( for those interested in facts) the suggestion was laughed at, infact i was even asked why would we want to even do that ?

It was just shrugged off as another joffa thing getting on his high horse..after all what would he know ?

I love the cheer squad and i love its people and i believe the cheer squad if it got its act together would be the biggest cheer squad in the league 'FULL STOP'

I believe it will happen...the thing is because i have been vocal against those who do not share this same vision as i do, i allways kept being labelled as a trouble maker or some sort of ego driven maniac.

Regardless of whoever runs the cheer squad its unimportant to me, i just want the cheer squad to be a huge family ( and again i say go through all my postings on cheer squad topics on nicks board and you will see that from day one all i ever wanted to be involved in 'is a cheer squad that welcomes all people' a cheer squad where we are all equal and all invited to participate in all activities together,a cheer squad that is a family, but some people im afraid are driven by a false sense of power and when this happens they lose vision of the bigger picture.

And it hurts me to see other people and children being sucked into this vaccum.

The front row at times should be for the kids, the committe should not feel it is there god given right to have front row !!( it stinks of a boys club ).

And for those few small minded people who are going to say..joffa is at it again' let me tell you i have been smashing my head trying to get these opinions across and not just me i might add also by quite a few number of other people.

Come the finals just when i believed we were making great inroads into a lot of areas, i read a topic on nicks board wanting to know how did the practise match go between the 2 cheer squads.

A cheer squad member who happens to live opp moorabbin oval got a knock on his door wanting to know if he would like to participate..by you guessed it ..the same small group of 5 to 7.

Why wasnt everybody told about it before hand ?
Why the wanting to seclude everyone ?
Is the cheer squad not the 500 or so members ?

And some people might say ' shit' ease down joffa its only a cheer squad footy match, to me its more than that, to me its when the whole cheer squad should of got together away from football and really get to know each other even better, to cement new friendships and come away shareing the vision 'we are all one' 'we are all family supporting our beloved collingwood', regardless of mentality, looks, or even the pecking order within the committee, it would of also been a superb time for all the kiddies.

I've said enough
cheers

This above didnt happen and im pretty sad about it !!
