Norf and the 2011 Doom Cycle

[Biffinator]

Comrades.

Earlier this year in May, Eugene - the Norf Ideas Man - stepped up to the plate with his usual degree of forethought:

Kangaroos chief executive Eugene Arocca told The Age on Monday his club was mired in a ''doom loop'', with questionable fixturing leading to poor attendances that hurt the club's bottom line.

It is hard not to view this year as a mild precusor to the tempest that awaits in 2011.

• One Friday Night Fixture - the AFL clearly did not dare to allocate any more to Norf with the TV rights coming up.
• Yeah, more FTA but mainly in the "Oh fugger, I haven't got anything else to do but watch telly" sessions.
• Notwithstanding SLF's assurances, Norf is Tassie-bound. All of this speculation is going to dent their membership - and massively so. As we speak, it stands at a paltry 7702 (Melbourne, no powerhouse, has reached 11,992).
• It remains to be seen how Norf fared financially in 2010. The AGM is coming up soon. The massive debt ain't gonna be any smaller than what it was a year ago. Perhaps there will be a small 'operating profit' whatever that means . . . . .
• All aboard the Norf Magical Mystery Tour (in the old, clapped out Kombi van): Sydney, Gold Coast, Canberra and now the Tassie Last Chance Saloon. Everyone knows they are trying to leach off the resident population (at least with Hawthorn, it is less one-sided) - hence the rejections to date. If they don't sort it out soon - in a sustained, consistent fashion - the next stop will be the pullet-equivalent of the elephants' graveyard.
• No pokies - what a dumb-arse mistake. I cannot see the Norf meat-tray raffle (check the expiry dates) making good this deficit. Norf supporters claim the high moral ground at this point and conveniently ignore the 'powerhouse' that is Roo-Bet.
• Aren't we all so bored by their incessant dying? How much longer will this sad spectacle go on for?

Emaciated and inherently boring though they be, it is a testament to Norf's resilience that they have survived thus far. But the 2011 Doom Cycle is going to be far more virulent than the one past - and they enter it with no fat on them whatsover.

Eugene - make sure you dry-clean that black suit.

The highlighted parts gave me extreme LULZ.

Good work as always Biff.

haha Norf.

Quality exposee, Biff.

There are so many demons supporting, circle jerkers here on BF that remain obsessed by the NMFC. Congatulations on starting yet another thread about the club you not so secretly envy.

As you are clearly obsessed with the future fortunes of the North Melbourne Football Club, I'd like to cordially invite you to man up, and predict the date on which the NMFC ceases to operate in the AFL, here in this thread

Thanks for your time

 

[Northworth]

when was your last post not related to either SLF or the NMFC?



obsessed much?

Stopped reading here. Your club is a basket case off-field, and has possibly the worst list in the competition.

 

[XXX5]

Norf to merge with James Hird (the Club formely referred to as Essendon) within 2 years.

Who is this SLF?

Did you mean Jamie Johnstone?

Cretin, stop gnawing away at your beef jerky and think for a second.

When the West Indies took to the field at the height of their power, whom did they customarily target?

Biffinator,

props for another fantastic thread.
On another note, have you heard if your friend Bandwagon2010 is going to get back online anytime soon? He's been sorely missed.

Beef Jerky is on special this week at the Korio Bay Roadhouse. Come in and I will give you are free sample. Cat sperm2007 is hard away out the back making more samples. Made sure he has his clothes on ... nothing worse than another pubic hair mixed in with the Jerky

Im always here ... in spirit Bayer.
Lunch time is always busy.
Time to go and fill up the Bayer Marie

 

[Roth Ell]

I am sick to death of these morons still referring to it as "North"

FFS, it's "Norf", everyone knows this now: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Norf

 

[Bosk]

Excellent thread Biff.


I believe that in future years history will show that when Norf's board threw away the club's chance to relocate to the GC they were signing the club's own death certificate.

Norf's supporters (all fifty of them) will forever be doomed to dream of what might have been!

 

[Bayer_]

Don't fear for their future Bosk. Before too long, we'll be lauding the success of the game in the Northern States brought about by the Norf GWS Kangawesties.

Biff didnt make up anything, nor did he state youre in a "cylce of doom", your action shot CEO did.

All Biff has done is explain that it is impossible for norf to escape this "cycle of doom" with your current situation and it appears nothing will change.

The AFL handouts will dry up at some stage and you will eventually need to do a Melbourne and get off your own debt ridden arse yourself.

Dont hate the poster, hate your club.

Biff,

You're a historian/chameleon of sorts so you will appreciate the fact that history has always shown that the downtrodden have emerged to conquer and dominate. So I ask you, are these attacks on North by you and your flat kneed, fat lipped, oiled up rectum cohorts done out of fear?

Oil Drum Lane may just be prime real estate in a few years. Buy up now and cash in when the worm turns or maybe you and your cohorts are unable to do so, due to all your spare cash been used up to prop up the basket case we refer to on here as Melgorn? Let's all pray that your President lives a full and healthy life.

I just have one think to ask you morons. If we're so irrelevant and pathetic, why is there 2 ****ing threads a day about us?

Liam Boy we here in bay 13 are compassionate and worry for the mental wellbeing of our norf brethren. We put norf threads up to keep the simple norf supporters interested and active in their lives, for they can surely have nothing else in their lives except their failing football club. When norf folds, as it inevitably must (see Biffs post) the Bay will be here to help you through as you switch allegiance to another club such as Gold Coast or Sydney.

indeed let's pray that Jim lives a full and healthy life... although your thinly veiled sneer should not really accompany a statement like that

Big Easy donts you worry about these Deemon tossers they are too toffey to come down to the Korio Bay roadhouse and try out the stew - yeah I know Cats Pisser 2007 has been charged with being a cat serial killer again and all those moggie bodies are still missing but it goes down well with some tomota sauce.

Big Easys like you I am right behind James and Eugene and Tasssie is gonna be like Fort Knox a license to print money. To help our fellow supporters gets their in style, me and Cats Piss is starting up the Norf Travel Agency. Norf supporters going to see Norf versis Port in Davenport or Lawnceston can now pick from a range of prestigus One Star and two star accomoddation places most of the with running water and dunny paper and tarps are thrown in for free. Jettstar can be real expensive at time so we might have to start Norf Airlines to get overs the ditch. I saw some old Tiger Moths at the Lara airport the other day and Cats Piss has been plahying that flight simulator so come hell or highwater we'll gets everyone to the match and back in the best Norf style.

Stand by the Shint boners
