Will you accept the umpire's decision
« on: December 11, 2004, 09:02:36 AM »
I think most people on here are pro Miller/Casey getting back in power.
Say that doesn't happen, will you accept the majority's decision and still be happy attending games etc?
I'll accept it - won't like it if we lose Miller - and I will be expecting very good results.
I wonder if those at the club will accept the new board wholeheartedly.
Wonder if Wallace will be as enthused without Miller there, if that was the case.
Time will tell i guess!

Once a Tiger always a Tiger. Of course I'll still be going to games and hoping like hell for Tiger success....and giving credit where due!

I wish I'd waited until after the election to upgrade my membership though....wouldn't be near as good without Miller!  :'(

Who ever wins I will be backing them 100%, there really is no other option, nor should there be, It is the senseable thing to do. However I feel that a few alternatives will find it very difficult to live with should Casey get up, they will take it personally ( which is crazy) and will feel the need to continually pass snide carping remarks at the Casey regime in order to continuously justify there stances. No doubt if Casey gets up they will feel that they have been made wrong and will take every oppotunity that is presented to them to stick the knives into Casey and Miller to make themselves right.

I will accept as I always do. I paid for 2005 and will go to games, travel interstate and attend as many things as I can. Probably wont go out of my may to speak to baord members that's all.

Unlike others (as reported in the papers) I don't put conditions on my support of the RFC - haven't before and will not be starting now.

But like bg25, if Miller goes the value of my memberships wont be the same ;)

I'll be glad to see some footy after all this as isn't that why we all are madly passionate about the Richmond football club :P.

At the end of the day, i couldnt give a stuff who our President is.

I also want Miller to stay on board.

But when its all over, i will still Roar just as loud at the footy as i have in the past and wear my heart on my sleave.

I am a Tiger forever.
