Dark days indeed...
Now i'm normally a half glass full type of person...
So todays insipid massive loss to Karltun...of all sides....on top of 30 years of fruitless 'missing in action' football...has hit home hard...
And my faith in the RFC is now wavering...
I need to believe that this once great proud club is going to be successfull once again...the ghosts of tiger greats would want that...the many dispairing and long suffering supporters would want that...the administration would want that...the coaches...the players...even the AFL...would all want that to happen...hell i even reckon some of the other clubs supporters would like to see that happen as well...
I WANT TO BELIEVE...Richmond...I want to believe that we will eventually become a strong competitive football club again...make the final eight occassionally...sneak into the top four because we are a good side...play in a Granny cos we earnt it...even a draw would be sweet..or are we all really kidding ourselves here...?!?...
Show us something Richmond...keep my wavering faith in you from disappearing...something that will reignite my faith and keep me hoping we will all make it to another Premiership together...that it does mean something to be a Richmond supporter...
Give us some pride Tigers...give us some pride...
Otherwise i can feel a cleanout Mark 3 even Mark 4 slowly coming on...
The dying and slow withering of my club loyalty...the rise of cynicism...indifference...the folding up and packing away of the footy scarf...the tiger beanie...no tiger stickers on the back car window...no more membership payments...no more hot jam doughnuts on a saturday arvo at the 'G'...and sadly footy may just become for me the annual televised Grand Final day on TV contested by other sides...
Dont do this to me RICHMOND...I dont deserve it...none of us faithfull supporters do...not after all these years together...
Give us some pride Tigers...give us some pride...
