Timmy Watson on our culture of defeat.

[saynta]

Personally

If I ever met Tim Watson

I would shake his hand and thank him

Why? For admitting that he wasn't a coach's asshole and resigning before the club sacked him?

[B.M]

For taking us to the bottom and delivering us

N.Reiwoldt
J.Koschitzke
L.Ball
X.Clarke
N.Dal Santo
B.Goddard

Over three years

And then 8 years of relative sustained success

OK. You forgot Maguire though.

[CQ SAINT]

f*** me. Next we will be hearing that we knew he couldn't coach and set him up as a fall guy to rape the draft.

... and supporters !!

oooooh we are cursed
ooooooh the umps are against us
ooooooooh the afl is against us
oooooooooh sunday twilight is against us

marshmellows on parade

Love it

I’ve come up with a few (no prize for guessing that this is aimed at The Loser and perennial excuse maker Ross Lyon)

oooooh the weather didn’t help me on 26th of September 2009, nor did that Scarlett toe poke

oooooh the goal ump and all 3 field umps blindsided when Hawkins hit the post

oooooh if only we kicked straight in the first half

oooooh if only they blew the whistle at 3 quarter time in 2009 GF

If only premierships were won in Round 19

Have never heard Ross say those things?
Your obsession and hatred is starting to be unnerving and simply bizarre behaviour..
Thought Tim nailed it actually and attitudes like yours is why we are constantly victims....looking to hang blame on individuals when everybody knows it’s a team/entire club effort to win flags
Oh well.....haters gotta hate I guess..

Bulldust. My attitude is irrelevant and I'm not a club official and I was never part of the club. Maybe you might think that somehow an anonymous nobody like yourself is important and your opinion is important but it isn't. It is insignificant what your attitude is or what my atitude is and you know it.

The attitude of the head coach and the leader of the footy club blamed the loss in the Grand Final on bad kicking in the first two quarters of a game. He's the guy that simply bizarrely forgot there was a game to be won in the second half. He's the one who scarred his troops and deserted them and called them all washed up

Lyon also forgot what made the club strong. He wasn't interested in spirit and passion and selflessness ( if that is not the essence of culture, I don't know what is!) He didn't respect the bonds that were laid before he got there. He started tearing down the foundations that made us a respected and a strong club PRIOR to his arrival. The snake oil salesman wasn't fair or impartial with the squad and it came to bite the club in the short term in 2010/2011.... and beyond....His negativity hung around like a dark cloud long after he dumped on and departed his poor lost disciples.

Lyon promoted a culture of excuses, blaming individuals, victim mentality and selfishness. They pined for him and they couldn't be arsed going to work because there weren't any trendy coffee shops close by

This reads worse than one of those trashy love novels.....
“Ross never loved us.....he took us to the big dance then drove off laughing with another Sheila....we, StKilda are once again the poor victims....”

Lyon would have left even if we won a flag. Probably on even more money.
