I don't usually post, I'm a lurker, preferring to read other supporters opinions.
I am, however, a member. And barring some major commitment I have gone to every home game for about the last 5 years.
But now, it just doesn't hold the same appeal for me. The system is just so sanitised, I understand that not winning gives us potentially two of the best kids in the land instead of one and that the best way to go forward is to bottom out - but it doesn't mean I can enjoy watching us lose.
So I haven't gone to the last 3-4 home games, I've had other things on, but I just don't feel so complelled to make sure I get there.
Watching us lose is awful, but going to a game knowing that the best thing we can do is lose is just not what I bleed navy blue for.
The system is just so flawed. The best example of this is St Kilda. They are an awesome team at the moment - because they layed down, were not competitive and took spoon after spoon.
This is not what I grew up loving. Something must be done.
Outstanding post Motts and proof that lurking is not for you. Summed up a thousand posts perfectly.
I feel a schism and it's making goo of true support. I concur with Deano and The Game that it is completely out of whack to want anything other than to want the Blues to win week in in, week out, year in, year out. But I've got a 'but' now...and the 'but' is, well...this isn't a true competition anymore.
I know I don't love the Blues any less, ( I hope
), but, since when has an administration pumped their scaly dicks into clubs as whores, (favoured and non-favoured), ever? It's just crap, a river of crap with a footy oval floating ontop of it...
Oh and hey here is a team that's really bad...so let's pat them on the back for that, (never mind, boo-hoo, lots of presents, St.Kilda): let's give them an incentive for their loserdom. But if you want to fight that from a pride stance, well here's mid-table at best and stiffest cheddar to you and your pride.
Schism. Skzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzm.
