Sturt fans talking about spoons though, must have short memories.


No, my first 8 years of supporting the blues (old enough to remember the pain) coincided with our run of 8 in a row. :evil:
Carn the blues!!!!!

Pseudo wrote:The original Spoon Day (tm) from those halcyon footysa days was a Norwood v Glenelg affair. The Norwood lads passed the spoon onto Westies the next year. Unfortunately Westies then propped up the rest of the teams for a few years, which kind of killed off the formation of a proper tradition, more's the pity. All the more reason to get right behind it this year!


I've still got mine too you bastard. :D

The angry call from Doug Thomas to an owner of footy sa was one of the best examples of a humour bypass you'd ever want to see.
'People are not stupid. They know when they are being conned. And two reserves teams operating in a League competition will reduce it to a farce, a competition without a soul.'
