was that just behind the goals on level 2? a couple of moron essendon supporters were snuck in there as well, and after carrying on decided that 'they had every right to be there. didn't seem to worry them that it was a members only area...'

should probably be policed more. supporters in opposition regalia should not be allowed access to an area with an mfc membership card. that should set off alarm bells.

No we sit on the wing next to the members area. The guy who let them in usually takes his young daughters and is a good guy so I let it go but the club released an email recently saying the tickets are not transferable, you pay a lot of money to sit with your own supporters and don't need that crap.

And this is just the start of it, they will have something to cry about next year when we belt them again. The frees were there just because their team is a bunch of purple fairy wearing boot side is not our fault. Case of bad luckkkkkkkkkkk. Next in line carltoon. B) Oh this is going to be so much fun!

Today I was at the 'G with 49,200 others watching the Dees v Dons in a match that was always going to be an open and attacking affair.

There I was with my old man up on the 2nd level in Section B28 or something right on the 50m arc of the city end (opposite side to the interchange benches).

Free kicks. Yep... Essendon supporters all around me were spewing and yelling and almost throwing themselves over the railing... and one copped some seagull rear end "goodness".

Now to the crux of things... 50m penalties were given to the Dees on about 6 occasions at this point and I stood up and clapped every one of them yelling, "you can't do that Essendon...! Any day of the week".

Now... what began to urk me was that every time an Essendon player took a mark and was TOUCHED afterward by a Dee, Dons fans would yell blue murder for a 50m penalty!! Many angry pills perhaps?

It got to the end of the 3rd quarter and Green took a mark and was pushed over and I shouted out (a bit tongue in cheek), "50...!".

An Essendon supporter next to me said "Oh shuttup!". As an honest Dees man I responded with, "Excuse me?".

He then said, "you're an idiot".

"Why am I an idiot?" says I.

"That was never a 50m penalty and you're yelling out for one!"

I reply, "It's exactly what the Essendon supporters have been yelling out all afternoon just for the sake of it!"

His response: "You're an idiot. I don't even want to start a conversation with you."

Me: "Fair enough! You don't like it when you lose do ya?"

So the siren goes and qtr 3 is done. The 4th quarter commences and it's not long until... guess what...? Bate takes a grab 5m out next to the goal square and then gets a.... "definite" 50m penalty.

To the [censored] next to me says I, "50m yeh??? GO BATER!!!"

And there ends my story for the day. Was a great win to stick it up them Bummers.

But really... am I an "idiot"??

And a MASSIVE lol to the Essendon guy in front who was poooped on *snigger*

I've often said an essendon supporter is just a collingwood supporter... minus a sense of humour.

I find Essendon supporters the most arrogant and antagonistic supporters in the AFL. I certainly understand your experiences. I willl not even begin to name every event or encounter I have had with a feral bombers supporter over the years. However, one that comes to mind was earlier this year when I was at a preseason game at Princess Park. This bloke was giving it to Melbourne all day. rather than cheering for his own team, or tracking the progress of the youngsters that were running around for his side, he looked to

hang sh'it on every Dees player. citing how rubbish Watts was. Kept referring to Fitrzpatrick as a giraffe. Told me Patty Ryder was a top 10 AFL player. Finally I had enough and told him to "shut the f.ck up and watch the game". As you probably guessed, this just fired him up more. Pointed out that it was going to be a good ski season. Asked "shouldn't you be at the snow" To which I replied "Nah mate, it doiesn't fu'ckin snow in March!" He then raised the 2000 Grand Final and the fact we haven't won one since '64. All this abuse at a preseason match, can you imagine. I WISH I HAD OF SEEN THIS BLOKE AT 4.40PM on Sunday!!!!!!!! That would have topped off my day!

I do find this kind of supporter annoying. When I go to the football, it's to support my side, not just bag the opposition.

Unfortunately every club has got them.
