Cheer Squad?

[bec1984bec]

For your information, I do know so for a fact so STFU mate.

The bitching and bickering was the reason I left! Too many people trying to boss you around all the time. I can name names if you like. Someone else I was in there with left because they too were being stuffed around by your so called " manager ", yes I can name her aswell.

So I'm not just a " keyboard sniper with an axe to grind " I know what it's like in there, and I'd never reccomend anyone to join. I'd rather sit with drunken yobos! They cheer louder than the CS!

The Sydney based Cheer Squad is pathetic.

Anyway, I've had my say. My son cheers louder than your squad. The CS has been the same way for years. It'll never change.

There is nothing quite like constructive criticism. I think everybody agrees that the cheersquad has problems - the whole thread is dedicated to it! But solving the problem will not occur when people don't either make suggestions to improve it or become so incredibly pessimistic that they say "it'll never change". I think maybe you could use your experiences in the CS as a way to help it improve.

How can it improve?? We tried to help it improve. You can't improve the CS because you can't improve the people in it!

Man, I'm over all this.

I have been musing moving up to Brisbane in the summer & getting away from all this. I'm tired of it. I'm over this life to be honest. I'm completely drained by it all & generally haven't got the energy to fight the good fight any more.

Let things fall apart ; it is probably better that it does. Then something will actually get done for one.

Let things rot; I have simply given up caring any more.

I'm going to have to catc h a cab from my house to get all the big flags I took to Homebush & the flags I took to Brisbane to the ground. It is a bloody hassle. It is a blooming annoyance. But I guess I'll have to do it to get the stuff to the ground.

I'm over it. Footy isn't fun with all this negativity around every week.

Why do you bother? The sydney cheer squad is a joke and the few times i tried to walk up and join in i was told to go away by the old bogan women. Not to mentions they are usually made up of slow inbreeds. The Melbourne cheer squad looked heaps better on TV yesterday and they seem to be more in tune with what a proper cheer squad is meant to be. The Sydney cheer squad will change the day the oldies who run it are put into retirement homes. As it stands they cannot handle people who they cannot control. That?s why the Sydney based CS is made up of little kids or simple folk. These old woman know they can control these people however they want.

Why can?t their be our own independent cheersquad? Why not have then positioned up in the doug walters stand? There they can reserve a whole section, wave your big flags JF and not bother anyone. Is there a reason? Or will the old hags that run the Sydney cheersquad try and ban it?

And it's about time Kenny and his harem are moved to another location. I am sick to death of seeing them hog that whole area. Custodian on not let others now have their go!

My 2cents and my first post!

Bec is right - the Cheer Squad's problem is the people in it and you can't change the people. They're simply uneducated.

Julian - what you do with the flags etc is voluntary and if you're fed up, don't do it. Just stop. If you're worried that the CS will fall down and get worse without your help and nobody is willing to take over you, that's your problem. Only do what you want to if you want to do it. No one's stopping you.

You seem to feel so strong about your opinion of the situation so take your sternness and do something about it. Just back down, keep to yourself and it might not affect you as much.

Its time for the cheer squad to die and those involved go into retirement.

They smell like barnyards anyway.

I'll take that as a compliment!

i never usually reply to such petty and childish bickering but felt i had to this time

all this singing chanting et all, that all stems from soccer crowds, we if you have noticed are a football crowd we dont have that culture of singing witty songs at games
we do have the usual mob of regulars at most melb matches that do begin the chants but surely trying to get the whole crowd involved would be just a bit of a strech and unless someone get words to paper and gets it too all in the crowd its just not happening

the old biddies in the syd cs are tho ones that are ruining it all for everyone wishing to join, i recall being abused for bringing in a crowd of friends into the cs area simply cause they were not cs members and we were the ones doing a majority of the singing.

put simply its a culture thing we get 25 ppl a week to banner making in melb sydney gets less than 10 (pls let me know if this has changed) footy fans south of the murry have been doing this since footy began, sydneysiders have had a footy team for 25 years and eveyone is expecting the crowd to sing better than the welsh

so next time new ppl arrive in the cs make them welcome and tell the old biddies to keep their mouth shut and eat their fish paste sandwiches

[Zlatorog]

I wonder what club thinks about this? Is CS totally independent from the club or does the club has some saying in all this. If people are unhappy with the CS, surely the club should some action, shouldn't they? Has anybody complained to the club officials about it?

[bec1984bec]

Finally people agree with me .. Hip Hip! Hooray!

There'a a guy called Paul ( well there was when I was in the CS ) and he sorta tells the manager what should be going on. Maybe we can try and get hold of him to have a chat about the problems us outside " keyboard axe grinders " have.

You all wanna know something funny. I was in the CS right and I had a little tiff with the " manager " and strangely enough, I didn't get a CS renewal in the mail the following year! So you see .. that's how it works. If the " old biddies " don't like something that you do / say, they just treat you like crap and then forget to send your renewal. Lmao!

Hey Jude, don't let it flow.
Take a loose ball and make a stoppage.
Remember don't drag it under your heart,
Or the umpy, will blow his whistle.

Hey Jude, your not afraid.
You were made to go in and get it.
The minute you dragged it under your chest,
The umpy, blew his whistle.

And anytime you feel the pain, hey Jude, refrain,
Don't carry the Swans upon your shoulders.
For well you know that it's a fool who plays it long
And makes Hall compete in a contest.

Hey Jude, don't let me down.
You have found it, now go and get it.
Remember don't drag it under your heart,
Then you can get it out to a running Willo.

So get it out don't drag it in, hey Jude, begin,
You're waiting for someone to pass to.
And don't you know that it's just you, hey Jude, you'll do,
The movement we need is through the midfield.

Hey Jude, just let it flow.
Kick on the loose ball and make a contest.
Remember don't drag it under your skin,
Or the umpy will blow his
Whistle, whistle, whistle, whistle, oh.

Na na na, na na na na, na na na, hey Jude...
