just to be different

Post: # 556533Post thejiggingsaint »

To be different from a few posters on here I wont be:

(1) Demanding that Lyon be sacked The guy has a contract. Give him some support.

(2) Staying away from the games. Win or lose I'll be there barracking for the club!

(3) Giving our opponents comfort by turning my frustration at results into attacks on the club

I WILL be:

(1) Renewing my membership for 09 ASAP for next season!

(2) Turning up for every game I can (barring 'flu of course!)

Hope to see all you other "tragics" up on the MW satdee!
The Jiggster is......BACK!!! :D :lol:

And rightfully so.

Now, ladies and gentleman, THAT is a true supporter.

Unlike others who go to Essendon or don't renew their memberships because they don't like the coach or want to punish a president who is no longer there.

Petition that one!!

Great stuff Jiggster.

Hear, hear Jiggster.

A voice of reason from an equally as passionate member as those foretelling doom and gloom.

Good on you JS. Not wanting to argue with your dedication or support. But optimism can be blind. The brand of footy we're playing is crap, doesn't matter how much you love the Saints. there aint no way round that.

:? "blind optimism"?? Being an optimist does NOT mean I have to enjoy losing or that I'm happy with the gameplan. PLEASE don't think I just rock up like a good little kiddie and take me medicine ready to come back for more (and happy to do so :roll: )
But for the life of me I cannot see what good ever came from simply repeating here on this forum what the media hacks and St Kilda haters WANT to see us saying about the club.
I was GUTTED and ANGRY after the Bulldogs game. I am GUTTED and ANGRY after the Port game but I'm not going to ring SEN and give any of our opponents out there a shred of comfort or assistance in their unholy crusade against my beloved club. I will make my criticisms known to those in power privately and in a considered and courteous manner.
dont confuse my belief in my club with acceptance of poor results or efforts.
However, I believe that I need to ask myself "What can I do?" and all I can do is to renew my efforts to lift our spirits and to barrack my bloody head off this satdee when we play dem tigers!!! :x
Be of good heart folks! and get behind your club! They need us and our support NOW more than ever!!!
(God I love this club!!!!)

It would be my honour and pleasure to buy you one Dave...except that Eastern insists that he is the ONLY one who pays for drinks pre-game :-)

Can you get there in sufficient time to wander round to Livewire so we can drink it out of a proper glass in civilised surroundings?

That's what being a supporter is. Great stuff Dave.


I want to stand for something. I'm a loyal person and I think at the end of my career it will be great to look back and know that I'm a St Kilda person for life.

Well Dave, you and I and a few others here may well have a "Nil satis nisi optimum" approach to following our team, but it doesn't mean that we stop supporting whoever happens to be wearing the colours on any given weekend.

So, well said.
