Could possibly put OTC and CFF in that list of flops as well i guess?????

Maybe....
1. OTC
2.CFF
3.WUF
??????

Ah willow, i'm sure myself and OTC can live with the fact that we are in your list of flops. But at least it's only a list of flops on a football forum, not a flop in the real football world. In saying that though, being in the list of flops from a man who managed to turn a club on the up with a better list this year than last year, into the laughing stock of the league, all in half a season, will not cause me to lose any sleep. Actually, how well do you sleep after taking money from a decent country club and put them backwards 5 years?? Well done mate.

Ardrossan should have done their research there. Bloke coaches them in Div 7 for a moderate finish then takes on a Country Club with a good $$$$ backing. Bad move

Day's Of...tell me as I dont deal in hear say (you should try it) is it true you have recently been sacked as president of a club that operates during the summer months???? And as far as your footy career goes is it true you much prefered to chase pies in the canteen on a saturday than to chase after the pig skin???? Just a few people were quick to email me info on you as soon as you opened your mouth....Says alot about what they think of you....And there's more but we will hang onto that for a little longer.....

You Knob.....

Sorry WUF, that wasnt my quote you are referring to, believe it was written by easy miss.
I know nothing about your past coaching record nor do i want to.
And yes perhaps you should deal in facts and not here say, dont believe evrything you read in emails, they obviously dont want to put anything on the public record as they know they are talking crap

Hey dont shoot the messanger...... thats why I asked you straight out......seems like a lot of "mate's" talk crap????? Although your pretty quick to open your mouth on "What my mate told me" sort of stuff...

ever thought those comments you make might be full of crap????

More than happy to share my coaching record....In case you hear anymore from ya "mate"

Enough said i think......

I didn't ask you if you wanted to compare your football life with mine. Going by your recent posts your coaching ability must be similar to you spelling ability... And no, i "obviously" haven't lost sleep over your words. I hope you don't have any future coaching ambitions, any and all credibility has now gone.

I wouldnt imagine you would have one to share anyway CFF???? Well If your not concerned about my coaching credentials and you havn't lost sleep over my abilities to linger in your head then you have pretty much said all you need to say to me so stop pretending you know anything about me with the crap you rave on about.

Ironic considering the only reason I got on here was because of tosses like you so call "hearing things" from so called "Mates" and dribbling the most crap ive heard. Now that whipping boy you so eagerly trashed had a voice and that voice made you look like the tosser you were. And now you have no concern over my footy life!!!!!!! Funny....

Remember your a "no one" to me so why would you think I would bother to even consider your opinion on my character and what respect it may hold...I was asured of that before tosses like you started ranting like cowards behind alias names..You should be ashamed of yourself......

So happy your not concerned what my future holds so I bid you farewell and hope to never hear of you again...cheers all the best...

Foot note : Cant apoligise for my spelling as I guess I was more interested in getting out to kick the footy instead of inside being a book worm...Hey not that thats an issue if your into your books and stuff CFF ????

Still ended up with a great career through which footy afforded me with the many challenges it presents....Shapes your character depending on what involvement you actually had in the game??? Guess spelling wasnt a huge part of that

Ahh there you are...Another one of those "no one's" from "no where" having an opinion on me??? Dont you love em...

Give yourself some credit and at least state what you think would have been deemed as "Moderate" in you terms for the div7 club I coached.????? If you can anwser that then I may start to think you have any clue as to what your talking about....If not crawl back under that rock as to which you came crawling out from...Is it Easy Miss or easy target.????

Yea making even more rediculas statements on the BL&G & APFL....... forum sluts I call them.

[countryfootyfan]

Willow, if I have never had or have a football life, why would I participate in a country football forum? It's definately not to stir up people like yourself. I have been sucked into participating in arguing with you, something that I don't normally do, and cannot be bothered with anymore. This is a forum, which relays thoughts and opinions, and is meant for people to post what they "hear". Not sure how else u learn these things without hearing them from somewhere, whether it be from a mate, a paper, a forum...

Hey thats a fair statement CFF..I neither went to the AFC nor here nor the YPFL to stir up trouble for anyone. Thats miles away from my character...but I will only bite my lip for so long..

Where id had enough and felt I needed to put some things straight was the continuation of untruths that were discussed on people's aledged hear say...Its one thing to have an opinion which I will always repect its another writing lies as if they were there and a part of it. Like i said from the start if you wanted to clear things up as a CFF no probs but if you wanted to state as fact "what you heard" then that makes other people's stories grow into bigger stories...then others get on and all of a sudden they "have heard" how it all happened...I know the whole truth i can tell you the whole truth!!! Thought thats what i said from the get go????

I will be honest as those that know me know that I wear my heart on my sleeve and i make no bones about that...The hardest part of being told your not good enough to coach by a club is then to have to tell your 7yr old son we can no longer go up there for footy anymore and all this in an instent. No warning at all..he loved the place and the boys and he still asks when he can go up and watch his favourite player in Milo..

Think about how it feels to feel hurt thats all....

All the best CFF...think we have cleared up a few things...

[countryfootyfan]

Well said willow.

[willowupfront]

So back onto some sensible discussion...FINALS...

I truely wish all the teams that have been so fortunate to be playing in this years final series all the luck...

To the clubs and all the individual players lucky enough to be playing I wish you all the very best. Enjoy the moment, embrace the opportunity and cherish your chance at history.

May the best team win?????? (and party long and hard)

[willowupfront]

[quote="countryfootyfan"]Well said willow.[/quote

Ahh Paskies.....your coach is a great bloke...spoke to him for a little while straight after our game first time round and he thought we went ok??? Said you boys underestamated us and therefor made it a little difficult in the end for them.....His words....you remember what the margin was in the end??? think it might have been around 7 or 8 goals....but dont quote me on that margin as it does seem a while ago now...

Ardrossan should have done their research there. Bloke coaches them in Div 7 for a moderate finish then takes on a Country Club with a good $$$$ backing. Bad move

If you can anwser that then I may start to think you have any clue as to what your talking about....If not crawl back under that rock as to which you came crawling out from...Is it Easy Miss or easy target.????

I would have thought with the money North Pines were handing out at Div 7 level last season against C grade sides, that a finish of 5th would have deemed a failure. IMO

And seeing that Ardrossan had a local in Teakle who has been a popular figure out there since crossing from Birdwood, that perhaps Ardrossan should have done some more research before appointing coaches. IMO

Not sure about the north pines set up and don't care too much about it. Scott Teakle has a young family and was looking at coaching in a few years down the track. Was a great captain, footballer, clubperson and respected by most in the league, but family and as it should came first. He got asked at the last minute when they didn't require the services of willow any more. That's when he took on the role of coach. Speaking with him today, he enjoyed coaching the end of the season, and will possibly put his hand up to go again. I'm sure if he does put his hand up to do it, he will give it the best he can, have the respect of the players and club members and do all he can to improve the Ardrossan football club. Hopefully his father, a mail medalist, will return not just to look after the grandchildren but to give advice to Scott re his coaching.

OTC....Most sensible thing I have heard from you so far...

Scott Teakle is a legend of the club....Although i didnt get to know him all that well you couldnt help but feel his presence..

When schuter text me to tell me who was taking over I couldnt have been happier for the players...and a great man as well.

Not sure why they didnt knock on his door earlier as looking back on things the culture is far worse than I was led to beleive at my interview (the committee didnt have great things to say about the culture as is was.).. But he would be the one of very few who could possibly turn the mentality of some who believe they are bigger than the club (not many) around and therefor start to push the club back up the ladder of respect...

3 key committee people thought they each ran the show yet couldnt have a nice word to say about each other...One quit straight after the sacking (through guilt so the next one stated to me??}, one said to me he was that behind me (Im thinking with a knife) staying on as coach he refused to vote and left the meeting and later quit the committee (his words) and one thought the other two where nothing but dickheads all the while telling me he and the club were 100% behind me to my face and plotting my sacking from afar...the same one to call and tell me of the upsetting news while I was at work... and he couldnt get off the phone quick enough..

Not saying the club has'nt fallen further behind in my time as im always prepared to take responability for my lack of wins (hence the offer to resign earlier in the year) but looking back the problem rests much deeper than those three and the captain of recent times suggested at my initial interview and under hldden agenda's any coach coming in was going to struggle with the power struggle....

Teaks has the repect and backing to make the changes needed and I wish him and the club nothing but the best in both their future's..

Ah just as i thought...Another windbag with no identity mouthing off about things they clearly have no clue of!!!!

Firstly you should not only have thought(??) maybe you should have also taken some of your own advice and did some RESEARCH since your so good at banting that word around...IMO...

If you had of you would have seen the ladder as...
Sacrad Hart OS- yes "C" grade..but going for bk 2 bk in that div.and got it.also their A & B grade won flags in div 1 around same time...C grade F/fwd kicked over 130 both yrs and couldnt get a look in their B's...pretty handy..Carrol O/S this yr and they didnt make the 5....Power full club by any standard...
Mawson Lakes R/U- A & B grade clubs...div 6 now
Mitchel Park - A & B grade club..History of div 1 footy and flag fav's for this yr...
Angle Vale - A & B grade club...playing finals again this yr...
Nth Pines - A & B grade club...knocked out last week by same club as last yr...A/V

Do your research...IMO...
North Pines & Money have never been two words you would use for them, unless its how much they have never had.??
Nth Pines were a struggling club playing div C something for yrs which is a division for clubs with one team (research..imo). 2010..One team, coach quits half way through & takes 13 players with him. Club had a core of 13 or 14 more for the rest of the season..Dragging strangers of the streets to field a team (lucky only had to fill one) with 16 or 17 if lucky...belted by 35 plus goals every week..oh and of course out of all that no one paid Membership (hardly anyone) no presentation or vote count nights and the people that made up what they called a committe were from the small cricket community who had no interest in the football side of things. there were bashings (brutal im told) and much, much more crap than that.. Almost forced to close the doors were the words used at my interview (ex pres in tears) Research!! IMO..
2011..Div 7 two team (first time in a long time) both played finals...A grade 2&1/2 games out of top5 half way through...beat all teams (except SHOC) by 10 goals or more in second half and ended up in the finals...All 4 of the others were looking over their shoulders with fear of the potential??? Had a bit of bad luck with injury to key players (2) first final lost both before half time. Also went in cold as we had only 2 games in 4 weeks due to byes and rep game and won both those by 15 plus goals...Not an ideal prep leading into finals...But they made it....Achieved a few first for them in many yrs (hadnt won 2 in a row for yrs let alone 2 in one yr)...Ended up with 80 on the books...Club collected 74 payments in full ($150each)...Raised over $12,000 in sponsorship (myself and one other chased these) operated the club with basicly myself and the pres..
Problem was club said they were debt free at the interview but half way through the yr over $8,000 bills from cricket season magicly appeared as unpaid??? Debt was paid out players not paid (only 3 were anyway) and still stuck around...Club struggled for the rest of the yr but still both teams played finals...Had a vote count, had presentation night raised more money.....ra ra ra

Went to the AGM...because its such a small club in numbers same wanker killing the place (and has for many yrs) elected himself as footy director which he resigned from at the begining of 2011......Club wanted me to continue for a few more years but id had enough and I was out of there...Happy with what I helped to build..And guess what their struggling again....

Do you research as I dont want to waste my time nor others on a club that has nothing to do with the YPFL.....IMO So off you go bk to that rock and get the f#%k off this forum unless its relevent to the finals about to be played....IMO...
