Those poor Fitzroy supporters did not so much lose their club as they saw it kidnapped and slowly, callously strangled by those cold hearted bastards of the AFL executive.
They strangled them for finances, white-anted any potential sponsors, made them repeatedly move home grounds, vetoed coaching appointments, and in a first, even made sure the maggots gave US blatant free kicks when we played them. In a final act of bastardry, they made sure their very last game was not in Melbourne where the long suffering supporters could say farewell, but was a continent away, playing against the new club, Fremantle. To their eternal credit, Freo took it upon themselves to give Fitzroy a fitting send off that the Rsoles of the AFL would not do.
One of the excuses those AFL Rsoles used for killing off Fitzroy was that winning as few games as they did was not sustainable, so “something had to be done”.
Take your Lid On propaganda elsewhere. You’ve lost the point of this thread, which is. FARK FARKING FARK CARLTON!!! We need to humiliate these ■■■■■, do to them what Geelong did to Melbourne in 2011 and basically break their football club.
