Actually (at least this time) I'm not. Am always happy to discuss these things and whilst ever I get concise measured replies like yours I will continue (so cheers for that).Originally Posted by GazFish35
Whether we agree or not isn't as important as getting our points across in a civil manner.
The thing is though that we pretty much agree in the outcomes everyone is striving for.
It's the process of getting there that we have differing opinions on.
Your points regarding what supporter groups should be doing is spot on. But they aren't doing that are they. At the very least they are saying 'we don't condone violence in any way.......BUT' and we all know that nothing good comes after the word 'but'.
I just cringe at everyone bemoaning the lack of leadership when the FFA are the only ones taking any real action at all.
If RBB came out and said, hey we'll get rid of the flares if you get rid of the riot police I bet the situation would solve itself quicker that the current process.
As for the Victory isn't it a bit rich coming from them after they essentially went through this with the NT over the past few seasons? Especially when it looks like the club won that argument by not giving into their bullshit actions. The issues were resolved through discussion weren't they but is it any coincidence that flares are no longer a mainstay at MV games?
For some reason I found myself at several MV games at Etihad that season where the NT was up the back and there wasn't a flare in any of them. Do they still bring them to Jets games I do t know because I hate the Jets?
I have other thoughts on the Alan Jones thing but need to do some reading first. Will get to that hypocrite later.
Tl;dr?
Griff is the only one who can save us.
Hail Griff.
