Just trying to get a better understanding of how you establish the criteria for being a "traditional / loyal" football supporter and why you see it that way.

Dont get me wrong mate, I cant stand the Crows and most people who follow them but many of them are very loyal traditional football supporters. I think your views are a little narrow, thats all.

I think you have simply misunderstood my point.

As stated numerously many crows fans are loyal/traditional. The majority arent. I am talking about a percentage of crows fans. Its just cleary NOT ALL are loyal traditional fans and I believe this as WHUFC as pointed out. Is why the club is in its current predicament.

BTW have you seen the AFC's crowd figures/and heard the excuses for poor crowd figures. Over the last 4-5 seasons havent you ????

They are laughable.

These 'excuses' is not only AFC applicable and apply to the Power also..... Ive been told by Power supporters that they wont go to AAMI because its "to cold and windy" your points are thin Mopar, give up!

This is becoming ridiculous. The majoirity of all football supporters are neither loyal or traditional going by your definitions and ideas. Taking Collingwood as an example, the consistently get 60,000+ supporters to most games. This 60,000 would be a small percentage of the million+ collingwood supporters that exist. The same theory can be applied to any SANFL club who may get 5,000 to most games yet in all likely hood can claim the support of 100,000 people around Adelaide (assuming most people in SA claim a SANFL club).
So if you are only talking about a percentage of crows fans, expect some criticism because all clubs have a large percentage of fans who are neither loyal nor traditonal.

Acutally you have just confirmed it.

Crows and Port fans dont support their team every second week if its "to cold and windy". And this is an acceptable excuse for "loyal and traditional supporters" of their football club. :lol: :lol: :lol:

thanks for helping me prove my point FS.

Crows fans may not be the most loyal and traditional.

But they certainly are the kings of passing the buck it seems . :roll:

Hang on, in the first sentence you're saying many crows fans are loyal/traditional, but then in the next sentence you say the majority aren't? :shock:

The next sentence it's back to 'NOT ALL are loyal traditional fans' as opposed to the majority in the previous sentence? Call me crazy but I'm guessing that every club has fans who are NOT ALL loyal, traditional fans. Show me any club that sits in the bottom 4-5 at this stage of the season with no hope of playing in the finals that has crowd figures that aren't in decline. Every club goes through it.

You should recognise that being a Dogs supporter.

I'll pretend my ship's not sinking....And I'll tell myself I'm over you
'cause I'm the king of wishful thinking)


Why has your crowd declined every year for the last 5 years.

AISH on Slipped your.

in short. All your excuses for not gaining more than 18000 loyal supporters(quoting gingernuts) In the last 20 years are incredibly poor.

what excuses have i used for the crows not having enough supporters. I originally disagreed with your statement that we had no traditional/ loyal supporters and you have now agreed this is not the case. Time to move on from this crusade i think.
