It appears your knowledge of demographics is the same as your opinions on football. About 10-15 years outdated.

The SEIFA index for disadvantage for Mitchell Park is in the 61st percentile @ 1027. Elizabeth is... well, the 4th percentile at @ 787.

You're thinking of the housing trust dominated Mitchell Park (which I love) of the 80s. That's long gone.

Fair point, I spent a couple of my teenage years at MPFC when they were in the SAFA but I was from the better side of the train tracks.
Actually a lovely lady I worked with last year spends a lot of time with her husband (Di Whyborn) there still and I think Mark Beavis, a great friend of mine, still helps out there occasionally, also spent a lot of time with Joe Leck, his wife Linda and a few others down there.

Probably 87 - 90ish.
I didn't play but ran water for the Under 18s.
Also played against them a few times in the mid 90s when I was with the Shoes in the SFL.

You're summary for the area of that era is bang on though. I wasn't from the trust area but close enough to have the unwashed influence the area.

Definitely remember the name Leck. Not many of us went on to play seniors (well I certainly didn't). the Weekleys were around (played with Ben, was a gun).

There were some nicer areas of MP, plus in those days it didn't matter if you were from Ascot Park, Marion or Mitchell Park no-one cared about demographics and we all were great mates.

Scott Weekley was my age, went through Grades 6-12 with him.

It's all starting to become so abundantly clear. You've pretty much named the top 10 miscreants and neanderthals of Mitchell Park FC's lore.

and Scott Weekley is the President of the Anti-Port fan club.

Nice clubrooms at Mitchell Park and beautiful ground. I'm pretty sure I had a beer with Morell last time I was their.

Shit Guernsey but apart from that.

Hawks vs port got 43000 last season.


Some things don't change it seems



Your right things don't change, especially your pathetic predicable boring posts about crowds.

Go back to the SANFL thread where Morell is playing you on a break!


Nah stopped arguing with that dumbass weeks ago. Absolute nfi that bloke.

Just another clueless sa football hater trying to justify his port Adelaide/afl fandom. I called him out weeks ago

Ross Oakley would be proud. Fos Williams however.

I did love Booney chirping from behind his shoulder Chester and Spike style.





So we are back to the familiar situation where we have PAFCs debts increasing and crowds decreasing.

Gee I wonder how this will end ??? :-)

#sanflsfault
Only 4 edits this time! You're getting there UK Fan, maybe one day you'll even learn how to argue a point using evidence and logic instead of spitting the dummy like a Gowans twin.

Nonetheless, it was a slightly disappointing crowd on Thursday night. No doubt Hawthorn sucking (their numbers were way down compared to previous years) and it being colder than a Central supporters Elizabethan lounge room after their electricity was cut off didn't help.





I've used evidence and logic and have financials to back up my claims. You have your own opinion and a big opinion of yourself.

You've used "everyone picks on port and the sanfl sucks" which for a 10 year old is fair argument . But for a grown adult is embarrassing.

Which is probably why Booney thru you under a bus recently.

He is a "right winged" port supporter.

Interesting statement. sounds like I'm not the only one who knows you are clueless. :-)
