I expect their PR/sponsorship execs will be fielding a few media enquiries this week...
There was talk of this when the story first broke back in February. Andy D went and spoke to sponsors and reassured them.
They aren't feeling so reassured now, so it seems. And where is Andy? On a plane to the US researching equalisation? Irony is at an all time high.

Bit of a pity if you ask me. Once their players come down off the gear, they'll all be broken down shitheaps too.
Seems it'll be a better fit going forward than it ever was before!

There is a wonderful term in America called moral turpitude.
It was used a lot in movie star contracts, and used if they got caught bonking too much, or the wrong sort.
Also applied in other areas of behaviour causing moral outrage.

lol i know for a fact he went no where near the issue. didnt wanna touch it with a 10 ft pole
it has cost us 10s of millions of dollar: source our CEO
we actually probably had a very good case for defamation against the herald sun. but as usually we were too pussy to follow it up
I don't think it was a reassurance more so pleading to not go right now.

mistruths, actually blatant lies, were published that meant we lost all the sponsors we had in the works. some were very lucrative and were ready to sign

Remember the season launch?
"We'll look back on the start of the season 2013 as a difficult time but a watershed moment. A moment where we confronted our mistakes, when we learned some tough lessons and we took stock". He followed up with a comment that "Mistakes have been made" and "We will rebuild".
Surprised it took so long, TBH.
Must've been some contractual hurdle preventing it, I guess.
Trollollolloll.

Good. Actually avoid all car companies and sell whatever you have now.
The fact that I'm driving on the road with people like you is scary enough.

I have tried to have empathy towards EFC and their supporters, but the way they have conducted themselves individually and as a collective, NO MORE.
you are a soulless club with no inkling of any moral fibre, a Club with of self interest is what you represent, you will rot on your south west runway training ground in Tullamarine

Oh turn it up. What are you basing this on? From what you've seen on this board?
If you're going to bundle all Essendon supporters into one group from what you've seen on this board, then you seriously must also hate the entire human race considering the vermin that lurk this board.

Actually I must admit I have gained a little more respect for some of my Essendon buddies, they are shattered and have admitted they can't understand why Hird and the EFC continue to lie about all of this. But then I came on BF and saw how truly ****ed up the EFC posters on here are and I was like yep, I couldn't care less if the club is destroyed.
