What year are you at school? By my reckoning you're in Year 10. That would mean you haven't experienced many setbacks in life. You will learn that just because something doesn't go right it doesn't mean you have to be so negative about it. Try to look for solutions and the positives in situations. Having a negative attitude is unhealthy.

But people here who say Negative Things is because they want the Best for the Club.
I hate when other Members Abuse them and Call them not Collingwood Fans.
I find people who do that are very Pathetic |
Dave I generally disagree with you , however you are totally correct this time. People who criticize poor club performances are perfectly entitled to do so without being personally attacked by those you speak of. Piesinchess is a shocker who personally bullies me and others . Gutless

It's when people say things like "GO and support CARLTON then!!!" - I hate that...it's not a constructive argument, or a point of view. It's people just telling you to virtually shut up.

I'm with you all the way DTM on this.
They love snipping away at certain posters.
Say you think Bux should go and what do you get,
rubbish like "You are not a true supporter".
Unlike you DTM I love a good verbal spat.
One prominent Lollipoper called the SS "pathetic whinging bitches"!
the other night.
And what do you get on this thread " it works both ways"
Well I am sorry it mainly is a one way street.
I think there are some posters who have a number of mates on this board who stick up for each other time and time again.
It is interesting how Jez07 has set the cat amongst the pidgeons.
He has copped a huge amount of abuse.
see the post above.
flog, troll etc...
It really is comical to observe.
He certainly hasn't given much back.
Be like me DTM don't take it personally.
They will see the errors of their ways before the reckoning!

Lot of People on here like Failure as they seem Content with it |
I wouldn't call two flags in 30 years a failure. Clubs like StKilda and Bulldogs have had stronger lists than ours in the last 30 years and they haven't won a flag in that time. Then you have teams like Melbourne which have had comparable lists to ours. They haven't won a flag in that time either. Hawthorn, Brisbane and Geelong have won multiple flags in the time frame we're talking about with team lists comparable to the famous Collingwood teams of the twenties and thirties. |

I think it's because he's yet to actually break any of the forum rules, being a troll, probably isn't a rule. |
and Has not Abused anyone.
So like on Bigfooty with ThatsGold. Deadset Troll but does not abuse anyone so can't be Banned

Hey why do you want to censor free speech! We don't have to agree with it! I don't either, but ffs stop trying to shut opinions down you don't like. Let them say what they want! Nicks is not some fascist site like the Chinese Government.

Gee Hiss that hippy water up north is really helping you.
Obviously you are an old red from the 60's.
Anyway that was a wonderful rant. Well done!

For a club that calls itself the biggest and most famous club on a daily basis, it is failure. We aren't the Bulldogs and the Saints. |
