After 25 years of having to sit with the ferals in the AFL members for this game I decided to purchase seats in MFC members allocation this year. Got seats in M53 (hoping they don't let any Collingwood supporters in there!) in the club on sale this morning, was $55 a head but worth it to avoid the lunatics in the AFL members asylum. It's the only game I specifically don't want to sit in the AFL members for, Carlton, Essendon etc suck as well but not to the same extent as Collingwood, those freaks are on another level. 5 Quote
Rab D Nesbitt 8,964 Posted February 18 Posted February 18 I've stopped going to the away games against them as they're unbearable pond scum. Don't count on them not getting into our own members areas though. There are plenty of them that go to club functions or have access to sponsored boxes that end up taking empty seats in our areas. MCG staff that are there to police this do nothing and our own supporters are generally too polite to say or do anything. Could you imagine an oppo supporter trying to sit in the Sherrin Stand at Victoria Park back in the day? They'd be lynched. 3 Quote
No. 31 1,405 Posted February 18 Posted February 18 After a few misses with the Ticketek website, got a ticket in the noosebleed section for KB. Last time I went to this fixture live, the Dees won ... its an omen! 😁 4 Quote

I hate to say it but we sat there for our mfc reserved seats for the past 3 years and there’s general public reserved for the first 15 rows if you are on the bottom level. Lots of feral aupporters roll in at half time and take the reserved seats that the dees members aren’t using as well. It’s the reason we moved to m52 1 Quote

Tbh I don't mind if there's some of them, just don't want to be outnumbered 1000-1 like in the AFL members Edited February 18 by Dr. Gonzo Quote

Yep I agree, its the only game I will consider using my Redlegs seats (I give them away every week so they are used) or MCC rather than sit in the AFL members where we are every other week. 2 Quote

They still manage to infiltrate the Redlegs and Trident areas, problem is we lose these games and they get lippy. Need to win and then we can send them packing. 1 1 Quote

It's been a problem for as long as I have been a premium member, I admit I sometimes pass on a spare ticket for oppo supporters to sit with me for the game, but I stress they need to dress in neutral clothes and respect where they are, and my friends always comply. And the people around me know their allegence but are very accepting because my friends behave themselves. 2 Quote

Bring-Back-Powell 15,556 Posted February 19 Posted February 19 Sucks that we have to play these mongrels twice again. It's the only time I don't enjoy going to the footy and something disastrous on-field always happens when we play them. 2 Quote

Rab D Nesbitt 8,964 Posted February 19 Posted February 19 This is one topic that absolutely should be raised at an AGM. It sounds like we’re all royally f’d off with the great unwashed infiltrating our members areas. 3 Quote

I speak to many MFC members who have said that they will not go to Collingwood games now because of the abhorrent behaviour of Collingwood supporters. As an MCC member I try and sit in the no alcohol section which weeds a lot them out. 1 Quote

At an away QB game we got seats up in the nosebleeds near Daisy Pearce, her husband and twins and they left at half time because of the abuse. They are the scum de la scum of the AFL. 2 1 Quote
