It becomes really painful to listen to a person (many over the years) tell other people how to behave as a supporter. Gems from the past-
Your'ne not a real supporter if:
1. You have missed a home game since 1933;
2. You weren't one of the loyal ones in 1982-84;
3. you boo past players;
4. You leave the game early when the Swans are getting flogged;
5. Half a dozen players don't know you by your first name......etc etc etc
Top 40, if I have to read your opinion one more time then I'll "to quote Ron Barassi" throw up!
What gives you the right to tell other people what to do? Everyone supports the Swans in THEIR OWN WAY AS THEY SEE FIT.
I didn't boo Hall yesterday. I sort of cringed when he got the ball the first time and others did. Quite frankly I couldn't care less if people booed or not. Freedom of choice.
The Swans sacked him because of what HE had done. Otherwise he would have retired a Swan. I support what a number have already said about captains that year. He was lucky to do something that Plugger, Ablett, Kelly etc never did but were far more worthy to do.
He's a dumb man Barry. Either that or he has listened to dumb advice. He's trying to flog a book he hasn't released yet then he goes out to say a dumb thing last week.
There is not going to be many Saints or Swans fans buying it.
Certainly secured sales to Bulldogs fans but that's about it. History will remember him as a Swan then Saint.
He got 5 yesterday, didn't acknowledge either Swans fans or the mob behind the goal posts. Tada, back to Footscray!
True Swans supporters know who they are and follow the Swans the way that feels best to them.
PS - My best thread response was Erica's. The man did her wrong and he can mosey off into the sunset!
