You do come from left field,
so I like that.
My favourite food is a Pie!
I sometimes drive a fair way to a very
small pie shop in Coburg called the Pie Place.
Because the pies are always freshly made and taste great.

| Hope the club cater for all the supporters and listen as well. Would love them to have a sportsman bar area called the Vic park tavern a room decked out with memorabilia/images from Vic park. They can still have the corporate function and dining but they have to cater for the working class supporter which defines collingwood |

I want a place to get a reasonable priced meal and drink

I want a place to watch training either inside
the joint or on the terrace next to it.
I want a place where I can see all things collingwood
including replays of any past winning games.
I want a place where I have an attachment to the social club.
I want a place where there are no pokie machines.
I want a place where there is no corporate
culture, where renting out the joint is more important
than looking after the members. |
Well said thompsoc... my sentiments exactly

Thanks Cobood.
My comments seems to have hit a warm nerve
with everyone!
Which is unusual for me as I seem to get a
lot of negative responses to my posts.
I think what I said in my initial response
is exactly what everybody wants.
I hope Eddie gets the message.

We have the Pubs for cheap meals and drinks.
http://www.collingwoodfc.com.au/club/venues
But the Club is too scared to actually brand the Pubs as owned by The Collingwood Football Club so whats the use in traveling the extra distance and supporting them. Much like Olympic Park you wouldn't know if was a Football Clubs HQ if you didn't know. |

Is it going to be a proper social club like Vic Park, or is it only another match days venue.
I want a social club, where I can enjoy a meal and a beer anytime of the year. |
