Got the biggest cheer of his career last night when it was announced he had been subbed out of the game
Sums it up really
Our love our fans but that was pathetic. We are better than that. Vickery is crap, the only way to change that is for him to get confidence through the VFL and at training, he didn't need that. Thats what a poo club does, like Essendon or Melbourne.
Sorry Pope, though I can see your point I can't agree
Facts are people are incredibly (rightly I might annoyed) with what Tyrone has been dishing up, not just this year but the last few. They are angry and frustrated. 4 games into the season bad he's given one good performance and been missing in action for the other 3. That's been his MOU for the last 3 years, one good game and missing for the next 3-6. He is capable of a lot better
I am not sure what message he is getting from the coaches but perhaps last night's "message" from the fans maybe the real rocket he needs to actually get his act together.
I didn't cheer when he was subbed but I wont be critical of anyone who did. People pay good $$$ to go and watch this side and what they are dishing up at the moment is simply no acceptable on any level
I'm as annoyed as anyone.
A crowd cheering a player getting subbed gets them nowhere. As far as fan voice goes u maybe right but look at Jack Watts. Not many whipping boys turn it around.
I'm annoyed too Pope but I have ugraded my membership to coterie, contribute to FTF attend club functions and help monetarily as best as I can whilst budgeting for my family also. Whilst money can't buy you success you would think the club would at least have more respect to the fans given there are over 63k this year.
If Ty can't handle it who gives a fuuuccck. I can't handle being poo for 30 years with no end in sight or just when I think we may be climbing the mountain the mountain suddenly bulges upwards another 1000 metres. I'll be a supporter of this club well after Ty leaves so who cares if he can't handle it.
Or would you find this ironic Pope? A few mins after the sub was displayed on the screen they had an image of Dimma with the message are you giving 110% and donate to the FTF when a large section of the members in the Olympic were screaming sentiments along the lines of "Are you Dimma". Fully endorsed those members sentiments may I add with RFC players and dignitaries within range looking blankly into space making no movements.
Timing is everything in football and RFC have had no timing whatsoever. You take the 94,690 in a final in good times you take the criticism in bad. If they can't stand the heat in the kitchen get the eff out.
I'm a paying customer and I aint happy.
