| We all carry on the way we do because we all ultimately love the club and want what's best for it. I'd be more worried if we didn't say much at all and accepted things as they are. Truth be told, we're in a dark place. Injuries, rubbish form, disenchanted players, angry fans, low membership, crowd numbers down, team playing badly, questionable recruiting, players wanting out or not performing, watching low life clubs doing better than us. Sure there's a lot to like as well, don't get me wrong. It's been a shit year and I think we'd all be much happier the season is done and dusted. I want a future to look forward to. Attacking posters personally is pretty low though but then again that's what the ignore button is for. |

Ooh, I never said I was going to lighten up on anybody... 
Just saying I have read the riot-act, and am prepared to wear the consequences. Three weeks to go, and looking forward to the club's ability to hit rock bottom and attempt to penetrate clay now!
Game On!
And just to forewarn the crew, things could get ugly if I don't get a final round four-quarter buy-in by all players selected to take on Whorethorn.

As one who is a passionate Buckley fan, I nonetheless appreciate that our performances over the past few years have been poor and so Buckley's coaching deserves to be critiqued. It comes with the job. More than that, I recognise that it is legitimate that some will argue that we'd be better with a different coach. However, I think it's wrong for supposed Collingwood fans to heap vitriol and abuse on such a revered legend of our club.
Those who heap abuse on Collingwood should expect to receive the same from loyal Collingwood supporters. |
Couldn't have put it any better myself.
Go Pies.

You don't have to agree what they say but don't show a Real lack of Dis-Respect to them and Collingwood.

I agree Dave. |

What is this nonsense? The back and forth between, for want of a better term, pro-Buckley* and anti-Buckley posters on this board is about even.
It's an(other) utter fiction to suggest that the anti's are a meek and reasonable few who are constantly bullied and personally attacked by the nasty bully-boy pro faction. Only a person with a wilfully distorted view of reality could think such a thing.
If a poster is called out and can't construct an argument to support themselves then that's very instructive, and yes, it does seem that some of the most negative posters on here are exposed fairly regularly for posting opinions that just don't hold up to reality.
However, that is neither unfair nor bullying.
*Meaning general continuing support of the club, it's players and administration. |

Are you married to Lazza Redlight???
He is always talking about people like me not living in reality.
You are a fascinating character.
I have you pegged as a lawyer or para legal professional.
Would be interesting to know your job.
I still think you have a simple view on things.
Little too black and white for me ( excuse the pun ).

The fact you call them "negative" fans says a lot, because that's what they are.
Why should those who aren't negative be attacked for remaining positive?
There's also the argument that generally positive people in society view pessimists as little more than whinging speedbumps who offer nothing constructive, whereas pessimists seem to view optimists as deluded and unrealistic.
That bottle spins both ways Dave, but a little more civility and a little less trolling would be a good start. |
Exactly. Apparently it's perfectly acceptable to attack and bully a poster who has a view which tends toward the positive end of the spectrum. Poor negative types, maybe we should ask the club to coordinate a group hug for them. |

check mate !
here is another unsubstantiated attack on a group of posters
You want some reality?
Try 5 years of sliding down the ladder.
That's our reality.
An unprecedented achievement from a senior coach at any level of football in the history of the game. |

"All the club is fair game but other nicksters are not.

Your reply goes nowhere close to addressing the point I was making, instead it's just a bunch of particularly personal comments.
In the very thread where you're complaining about that sort of behaviour.
I just can't fathom that you aren't aware of the hypocrisy. |

Absolutely. Among recent choice epithets i have read on this board in reference to our coach we have "Mr Potato Head", "Phuckley", "shithead" as well as the fact-inventor Wolfboy's endless monotone chant (though to be fair, I don't think Wolfboy actually uses personal abuse like that above).
People who use the anonymity of a board like this to abuse one of the very greatest Collingwood players of all time, a man who has a hundred times the leadership skills and football credentials of anybody posting here, do not deserve respect. The rules of the board do not allow me to say what i think of their character (though i think it is shown by their own posts), but i will certainly attack their arguments.
Those who argue that Buckley is not the right coach without that type of vitriol are of course entitled to their view. There are many excellent posters on this board who take that view, and fair play to them. But those whose comments on Buckley are troll-like don't get the respect pass, sorry.
I should add the Dyso exemption. He attacks everyone with a certain amount of liberal personal abuse after a loss, but it's good natured and funny and he's such a passionate Pies fan that he's allowed. The Dyso rant after a loss is one of the only good things about losing. |
The Dyso exemption is a given of course.  |
It's mr potato, not potato head, a reference to his bland paint by number style, phuckley stems from frustration, if he falls on his sword, I will most certainly refrain.
Loved him as a footballer btw.
He's just a stubborn chitfull coach.....and his very subpar coaching is upsetting my weekends😉 |

So what is your job redlight?
Or your educational background?

The point is Redlight is that you have already said that the anti buckley brigade don't live in reality, that i have a distorted view on reality and I have seen plenty of other negative personal comments from your past posting.
What is the point of getting into a argument with you, except for fun.
You look at things from a fixed point of view. You seem to think that losing an argument is akin to a loss of ego.
Personally I would love to get into a great sh..t fight on this topic.
Could not think of anything better to do on Nicks.
But it is not allowed under the rules.
As for my hypocrisy.
This is your argument.
I complain about people playing the man and not the ball.
And you say... look, you have just done the same thing by complaining.
School yard logic.
