All I'm suggesting is that there is clear reasoning for the major gripes.

If the membership issue is a major loss, I suggest you volunteer your time for the club in order to better position the club.

The easiest method of communication is via Twitter I don't see how anyone can see that, they probably didn't have very much staff in the office due to a public holiday.

Yes it's not ideal to change the time on the day of the event, but I think the outcry it has caused is laughable.

I still maintain that the large majority dont actually care and this majority stayed and were able to enjoy training

none of my family or children use twitter. i'm struggling to think of neighbours and friends who do

enjoy your laughing mm

I don't use Twitter either, but I can still read it as it appears on the Melbourne football club website and app.

so as i'm driving to melbourne you expect me to start up a browser session via smartphone to the mfc site then browse their twitter feed and understand all that shorthand hieroglyphics to check and see if someone has made a perfectly understandable, minor error that would only upset some cranky, negative, precious, demonland poster

gotcha

In one Daisy, my words to my lovely lady as we found out from Nev Jetta, (don't have a smart phone, can't stand em)...."this should be worth about five or six pages, if not a whole topic on Demonland"

When the training is on at 9.15 I usually get there about 9.10 and do laps on my scoot for a bit of exercise until the players stroll out between 9.20 and 9.40, so was used to it

Not sure if you are serious.

BB is a player sponsor at the minute and has been for at least 10 years. He is also very generous to the club. I understand he spent a year volunteering his time to the club only a few years ago.

Try aiming at one of the posters who donate nothing to the club except advice on Demonland. There are a few about, but you couldnt be more off target with BB.

saty i didn't go, i was thinking of going and bringing my 5yo gs but unfortunately he was otherwise tied up

i would have turned up at 11:30 so we could have had a little kick to kick on the ground

so, i would have had to wait around for 2 hours and there is no way a 5yo would have lasted

i then would have had to drive home with a bitterly disappointed toddler who had got a bad impression of the "demons" and try to explain it to my wife who thinks i'm a hopeless tragic anyway

i needn't add that his mother is not a mfc supporter

Chap was having a go at you, totally understand where you were coming from, that is why people who were miffed should have complained to the club which they did

Thought I would put this here rather than starting another topic

Good to hear of his contributions and whilst it was directed at his response it was targeted at the issue as a whole, and a majority of the people complaining would not have offered up significant time or resources to the football club

Problems with anonymity in a forum I dont know the fella from a bar of soap.

Exactly, though it makes it fun

Any chance of some feedback on Hogan? Preferably before bitching about the club returns to chipping each other?

He didn't pull up sore - he was given a couple of days to stay behind and see family in Perth.

AFL site saying different. Someone stood on his foot and was sent for scans. Supposedly the scans were ok, Thanks Fluck!
