Certified Legendary Thread Sympathy for *essendon II - over 6500 days since EFC won a final / AC signs w NM, EFC implode / RIP D2D and T_S

That, and I've heard that in the past he was quite highly strung and borderline paranoid about being whiteanted by those above and below him in the management structure. Maybe I was told a lie or maybe he's mellowed out in the years since then, but the handover plan suggestion did make me raise an eyebrow.

Then my other eyebrow quickly followed it because why would Hird need a coach to hand over to him, he already has senior experience.

apparently there are some influential * people who believe it's still early to bring Hird back now as the head coach, so bring him back as an assistant to rebuild his brand and ease him into it

They're as delusional as the ones who want him straight in IMO. There's no massaging away the pains of the past and everyone including the senior coach would know what their ultimate plan is. You would have to be mad to willingly accept that bullseye on your back.

By this time next year there will be adults who are not only drinking, voting and driving but having children of their own that weren't born when essington last won a final. What a time to be alive.

I wonder who at * will be responsible for this spate of teenage pregnancies?

Ahahhaahahhaha well played. The fact that the rock spider is their best player is the cherry on top atm. Imagine thinking a man of integrity like Clarkson would go anywhere near them.

I meant is he still talking in general

Hird would UNITE Essendon factions? The same bloke who was responsible for splitting the club in the first place?

Seriously, you couldn't make this shit up.

He’ll just cut the non-believers from the club, uniting it once more..

So one of his co-conspirators in the worst ever doping program in Australian sports history thinks he should be welcomed back to the club he brought to its knees? Why not? Sounds totally unbiased, reasonable and legit to me.

It's a lot like the rusted on Trump supporter QAnon types in the republican party. There's no way to ever satisfy them, they have to run Trump again whether they want him or not. You can't have #standbyhird and not eventually find your club in this position, no one else will suffice.

Not sure, wonder how his French baby is going. They grow up so fast.

Unfortunately, for it, it is still French.

Yes that was going to be my second question.

Coffee and cigars for the little monster you think? Or a visit from Uncle Dank with the good stuff?
