I guess Port people are fed up of getting our heritage dismissed because we expanded into another comp.

The problem is that it was your admin who caused this.

They signed a contract that suited them at the time;
1. Because it was all part of their plan not to be too closely aligned to the Magpies to try and capture a new generation of supporter. Lets not forget the club at one point separated themselves from the Magpies, its only been in the last 5 or so years the club has moved direction to the one port marketing strategy.
2. Because they were happy to whatever it took to get in the AFL, same happened with the footy park deal, signed it because the appetitive to get in the AFL was so great and then cried foul when it didn't suit.

The club literally sold their soul for a spot in the AFL...…..pretty much the dictionary description of that saying. Your board would have sold their own mothers to get in at that point.

I find it fascinating that all anger is at the AFL and not your previous board ,members who signed the entry rules to the competition.

After 1990 Port would have been like the episode of Seinfeld when Kramer accepts free coffee for a year as settlement.
Acknowledge your point one and as mentioned that wrong has been made right, does it forfeit our right to our history though? I don't think so.

The game had no relevance otherwise, a publicity stunt.
