How We Can Hold The Club Accountable (Petition Added to OP)

[Hotpiescoldbeers]

Done, and I emailed Eddie. Never thought I’d be so dissatisfied with this club.

 

[Curnivore]

I'm a Carlton supporter but I'm a publican in Collingwood and couldn't help but develop a bit of an attachment to your mob when my customers and friends are all Collingwood mad. I'm filthy on your behalf.

What pub, Curnivore? I'll be sure to sneak in for a drink as a newly residing local.

PM me and I'll make sure the first beer is on me

 

[Visions]

I have AFL Membership with Collingwood as my club support. I will be withdrawing my club support for Collingwood and just remaining an AFL Member

Did this 5 years ago. Haven’t looked back. One day the club may be worthy enough for me to nominate them again.

PM me and I'll make sure the first beer is on me

pm the Board -be a night you'll never forget...

Bunch of incompetent bonehead imbeciles. What just happened is not even a bad joke and heads need to roll.

Heads will not roll because the collective egos of the imbeciles won't allow it.

We're like one of those countries where the military take over-pin big medals to their own chests, stay in power for 56 years and run the place into the ground.

 

[Pedro]

Its not like we ever get a chance to vote on anything to do with the club, so the only tangible way to show dissatisfaction is to withdraw financial support. Thats what I will be doing until such time as I see some positive changes made. And that doesn't include scapegoating Ned Guy and telling everyone that all will be well. Ned will have to go obviously, but he shouldn't be the only one.

How did Richmond’s “focus on footy” launch.

Can a group form and challenge the board right now? Surely if someone challenged for eddies spot right now he’d be gone

It goes without question that Collingwood is a big powerful club, but the reality is that for every corporate multi-millionaire that backs the club, there's a thousand others that scrimp and save to buy memberships each year and show up week in, week out to barrack for the team in the cold and rain.

These battlers are the cement that hold the bricks of the CFC in place, and they deserve a hell of a lot better.

The true supporters of the CFC have my full blessing in the pursuit of tearing down the false idols currently residing in their temple, and tossing them in to the street.

Well said Snake. I'll be following atu and stepho for the rest of their careers, loved both of them, you're gunna love watching those 2 blokes play for North, strap yourself in because Stepho will take this competition apart

 

[Gone Critical]

You're in the flag window, you're doing what you need to do to allow cap space for game changers (De Goey), and given yourselves a good draft hand to address your weaknesses. Treloar is a ball butcher and was taking up too much cap. Stephenson is an odd cut but I think he's a bit of a loose cannon off field. You remind me of the 2017 Eagles team, off the back of a good EF win, good but not at the level to win a premiership. Use your draft hand to draft your needs, preferably players who can step in straight away. We used a second rounder to secure Liam Ryan

, to address our lack of crumbing forwards, for example. He was in the team round 1. Trust your club, this was all done for a reason.

Sorry we had already probably dropped out of the window, have definitely now. This was nothing more than a salary dump and the club won’t acknowledge it. Your view is spin like the clubs. We have little young talent in the club and need a greasy start after yesterday

Just listen to Ed triple m and I have never heard so much crap in all my life

1. Cancel membership
2. Voice displeasure to the club
3. Contact CFC sponsors and encourage them to BACKEND contracts. (Only fitting that if we treat guys like Treloar the way we have when we backended his contract that sponsors know members and supporters feelings and withdraw their support until there is new management. If enough supporters contact sponsors and let them know they will boycott their products until there is new management at CFC we can speed up the process by making our voices louder.

Never listen to Triple M but I believe you 100%

 

[Vicky Park]

Dunno about all of this. I think right now the club needs our support more than ever. The media are salivating over our apparent demise. There’s a tsunami of anti-Collingwood sentiment. We seem to be at a rather low ebb.

I’m not talking about individuals, and I’m not supporting all that has happened. And the sooner Edie goes the better.

But I don’t like us eating our own, and kicking ourselves when we’re down. There are enough haters out there to do that for us.

Tell us how we get a message across.

If Eddie needs to go, then so does Walsh, Buckley, Guy..

The only language clubs talk is $$$.
As soon as those in charge step down, i will renew and support the new administration.

I dont want to get a message to the club. I know nothing about football administration or the workings of a footy club. I wouldn't presume.

I will keep my membership and maybe even buy more, to support the club in this dire time. But again, I want Edie out.

 

[Pacman77]

A truckload of chook s**t and call the media in. The club hierarchy needs to be publicly humiliated by the hand of the members ASAP.

 

[Horaceg]

If you want to judge Buckley on his coaching then that's fine. But it's hard to point a gun at Bucks for the salary cap issues. That's a list management issue.

If anything, Bucks was left with the dirty job of having to tell the player. Doesn't sound like anyone in list management had the guts to speak with them.

Bucks is in it up to his eyeballs

 

[Brad Goodman]

The outpouring of frustration and anger by the fans really tells a story.

A club is more than the people who currently run it, so I will always love it. Until those currently run it from a football perspective are gone, I won’t like it as much as I have previously.

 

[Horaceg]

I'm a Carlton supporter but I'm a publican in Collingwood and couldn't help but develop a bit of an attachment to your mob when my customers and friends are all Collingwood mad. I'm filthy on your behalf.

Good that we can agree on something, appreciated.

 

[Markfs]

The one thing club is good at is spin... starting from the coach

so you're saying that buckley is lying in that tweet? Which bit?

 

[Markfs]

Time this dictatorship is ended.
This once great club has become irrelevant.
Collingwood used to be a club hated by all others and loved by their own.

Now the club is becoming a rabble, mercenary players holding the club to ransom and squeezing out their team mate in conjunction with poorly run books and the club has overly inflated opinion of itself.

We can see something had to give so let that be your legacy and hand over a clean slate to the new custodians.

Let’s make Collingwood great again, that starts with Ed cleaning out his desk and a AGM to get the rest of this sh*t show back on track.
