old dee

I am confident that the only remedy is winning games.start winning in 2015 and my attention will return. right now I am in the dwindling phrase. Sad but probably over due.

There is no doubt that I have over the last two years been slowly disengaging from the MFC I no long have any expectation of winning, I went to less games in 2013 than 2012 I have been to one game this year and will not go until round 6 as I have other engagements and an interstate game this week. I do not get angry with losses any longer. This morning I turned on the computer and there were two emails from the MFC, as I was deleting them it occurred to me a seldom read emails from the MFC any more. The human brains ability to block out painful things is a wonderful thing. I suspect that if this year continues to follow the trend of the last two I will have stopped the hurt completely in six months time.

Him and 30 000 others DF

I could handle that DF. Ten years between drinks would mean we have 16 flags now and another this year. No I have not been drinking but it sure does look like it.

I had coffee this afternoon with an old friend who happens to be a dees supporter for almost as long as me. Said he has completely disconnected with the MFC after the 2012 season and then AFL at senior level goes to his local Amos team. I ask would you come back? He said doubt it I am now used to a non AFL existence, just so much easier and more fun. He enjoys following a team that wins as many as it loses and he always feels his side has a chance. Interesting that he said he no longer worries about the financial problems, does not take millions to field his side. Running costs are low and generally has a good time. Lost him I think barring a possible GF appearance I doubt he would be back. In general conversation he said would never be a member again. If we became a good side he might be persuaded to go to the odd game but it would be a GA if at all.

I wish I could afford to do that H_T Seems like the perfect solution. Trouble is I would still want to sneak a look at the scores etc.

You don't know?

You are leading with your chin R and B

Fairly confident you don't need this thread to work that one out WJ

Pass too rich for my modest financial resources Mr Leg

Not so certain of that Biffen they must have some sort of skill for something

Shall do Any suggestions on how I fill in my winters in the mean time? Now be nice

Should I give you a call in 2017?

Try Ten Redleg

I doubt we ever will Redleg

Good afternoon Ladies and Gentlemen! No I have not jumped from any high place, drawn a hot bath, swallowed any tablets or drunk too much single malt. However the sad thing is I got exactly what I had hoped would not happen last Sunday. Did not see the game I was in Sydney where you would not know the game had happened. I actually had a good weekend. Now back in Melbourne and the real world has returned. Another year of irrelevance to the competition stretches out ahead. The MFC is blessed with easily the poorest list that I think we are going to struggle to survive. Sunday afternoon was not the end but it may well be the beginning of the end.

If we sat on the bench and shouted abuse we would achieve more thanDawes, Clark, Gawn, and Jamar. Honestly have you ever seen such a bunch of broken down footballers ( I use that term loosely ) .

dd I am happy to hear about Freddy and anyone else Sure beats the good news injury stories on half the list, constant bickering on most threads, Will Clark be cast into the street, will we win 1 game of nil this year, should we have picked wines etc etc etc. Happy to read about East Perth and Subi.

Not here

I like figs dc.Thanks for the thought I will try them out.

Had a Banana , Date and sultana sandwich today. It was ok but a level down from Banana and P Nut butter Obviously there are no suggestions from the gallery so I will have to plough on unaided

You know what you can do with the suggestion DF No chance I am going without bananas today let alone waiting till 2015.

Anyone got any sandwich fillings combining Banana and .... ? Feel the need to explore the culinary world of bananas for lunch again today.

Forget it DF you are stuck in the real world of 2014
