		They’ll need to do another one at the end of July for the 3 game $13 ‘membership’ that’ll get us to 75,000.

		Music after goals
		
		Dundee's nickname is the Dees. Aberdeen takes it's name from the river Dee but they are known as the Dons after the river Don. Both of which run through the Granite City. BTW I also hate the music played after a goal and between each quarter.

		Training Ground?
		
		Well, that’s excellent news then. It also means there will be fewer flights coming over my house.

		Hi Redleg. I'm not prepared to pay $1 to Rupert Murdoch to view the article but I'm pretty sure that the new runway will run north to south and further west than the current runway so it's hard to see how that will affect The Hangar (unfortunately). Brimbank Council said the increase in air traffic would adversely affect the health of it's residents but wiping out a facility where Essendon supporters congregate would surely balance things out.

		Jack Ginnivan admits drug use
		
		"I understand that as an AFL player, I have standards I need to meet and, on this occasion, I have fallen well short of the standards expected of me as a footballer and as a representative of Collingwood." LOL.

		BACK CHAT PODCAST - MAX GAWN
		
		This just popped up in my youtube recommendations. It's Will Schofield of the Eagles & someone called Dan Const talking to Max. If you want to hear the story about him smoking a dart on the way to training or working at Domino's etc for the hundredth time then I've added the link below.

		To get from AAMI Park to Gosch's we could do as the Green Bay Packers do and have the players ride the bicycles of their young fans between Lambeau Field and the practice ground. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BeSI-MkplpE

		Membership Tally 2023
		
		The club will announce a 2023 target of 70,000 then sell just enough 3 game $13 memberships at the back end of the season to make sure we reach it. Simples.

		Could they at least disclose that a non disclosure agreement is preventing them from disclosing anything?

		Hi ManDee. I actually have a lot of time for them and having lived there for a lot of years find so many little things about them endearing and their countryside to die for. This is perhaps on an individual rather than a collective sense but even so it means there's a helluva lot of individuals there that I like. What I find frustrating however is when they ask for justification for reasons that make them difficult to like and we can reel twenty of them off the tongue they don't want to listen because it's far easier for them to just keep saying we hate them for no reason.

		Hi Orion. Britain isn't a country. It's a union of four supposed "equal" partners that are treated like colonies by the bully in the playground that makes up 85% of the population but with almost none of the natural resources required to fund the interest payments on it's eye watering debt. In the context of Empire the term British is used in this instance to spread the blame instead of take ownership of it. As I've said, they're only British when it suits them.

		Hi 3183. I don't think I've found myself so out of my depth about so many topics of conversation than I did when I lived there.

		Nah, that's definitely a myth. Just like the one about the Irish being stupid. I had to go live there to find that out for myself though.

		Hey daisy. Yeah, I'd argue that there are for sure. We'd all like to pay less tax (unless you're Warren Buffet) but lots of people still understand that this will mean less funding of public services, many of which they themselves don't need to access but will end up making society fairer overall.

		Hi Orion. Self serving individuals from Scotland, Wales & Northern Ireland certainly participated in the pillaging of half the planet's wealth at that time but only one government declared it their policy to do so in the name of their monarch. The word British is nothing more than a term of convenience used by the English when it suits their needs. These days used mostly when they want to lay claim to successful sports persons that hail from the other home nations. Although, they can't even be bothered to do that any more. As witnessed recently when former tennis great Sue Barker declared whilst commentating on the BBC that Andy and Jamie Murray had just sealed victory for England in a Davis Cup quarter final.

		Yeah, it left me wondering who is responsible for paying for the policing and security at A League games and whether there is an agreement for only stewards and security to be present inside the ground. I think in the UK the police decide how many officers are required for an event before it can get the green light to go ahead and the home club pays for their time and resources.

		Membership holders still get to attend. Looks like they've been flogged with a wet lettuce leaf by the APL. Next three home games should be played behind closed doors with all travelling support banned at away games for the same duration. I'm an ex Victory member but this needs to be stamped out now for good. Unless they're intent on kicking more own goals they also need to ensure that no state league sides introduced to any second division when it's created has any ethnic affiliation or they'll be laying the groundwork for a repeat of what just happened.
