Don't worry, his true feelings have finally surfaced, referring to Leichardt as 'we' in an us vs them type attitude. I guess C'town classifies as them. Those aren't the words of someone who has accepted the JV
 
leichhardt ink learn how to spell….nice to see i say p... off and it gets deleted and ink can continue to try and belittle people with all his smart ass comments.
 
When you are talking crowds/grounds and refer to them as ''we'' and ''you''….which you did....how is it being smart when Im pointing out the obvious in that you dont see this team as one, its still divided for you.

YOU posted it yourself, I merely highlited it.

Its good to see there are some who've embraced the JV and can offer solutuions and discuss the problems "WE" seem to be having at Cambo with "OUR" crowds lately.....sad to see others just seem to get their jollys with "Im sure LO will get more than 13000"

Remember, when you point the finger at YOUR teams fans......its YOU youre talking about...this applies to ALL of us....as we're all supposed to be on the same page, sadly after more than a decade, we're not.

Sorry buddy,
But if your referring to me I'm a Wests Tigers supporter first magpie supporter second. I've accepted th JV unlike yourself who has obviously had problems coming to terms it.
I also live closer to campbelltown than Leichhardt and personally I prefer things as they are. I enjoy going to all our home grounds so for information in not after more games at CSS or LO.
You say you've always supported anything the JV does, well guess what, CSS is part of the deal so embrace it instead of continually knocking it. If your interested in bragging rites then brag that we've won seven on the trot and that fact that your a Wests tigers fan.

Balmain left LO at the end of 1994 because the ground was outdated for first grade rugby league. Its held purely for tradition and thats what brings the crowds. Campbelltown has a family demographic with a huge rugby league population behind it. Its up to WT to embrace it.

Having read this post, countless times in counteless threads
it has become tiring, so I will assist you with you with your
understanding.

Balmain left Leichardt for Parramatta at the end of 1994 trying to chase their supporters
that had moved away from their support base. They returned to Leichardt
oval after a couple of seasons. It turned out the crowd wasn't showing
up because they kept losing (who'd have thought).

Embracing Wests Tigers is a two way street. Campbelltown never embraced
the magpies, similarly, they never embraced Wests Tigers. It is
also up to Campbelltown to embrace Wests Tigers, which is why the
low crowds are being discussed.

Furthermore, if tradition is not a valuable commodity, as you imply,
why do you have a magpie in your avatar?

If you are so confident in what you say, why do you need to telling the
same tale about 1994? Rather than copying and pasting this post, you
would be better served finding genuine solutions to the problem of
why Campbelltown has never embraced a rugby league team!
 
You didn't discuss anything at all…you just picked 1 word and then out of that went on your way.

I have always excepted Balmain are no longer in the nrl and i have always agreed we should have 1 nsw cup team where i know you haven't...So stop talking rubbish.

You always add your little (what i consider)to be a smart ass comments.There are lots of people that agree with me but for some reason dont come out and say it...

So when a ex magpie fan says we should play more games at c-town and they hope one day that the magpies will once again be in the nrl or go alone in the nsw cup....where are you then with your 2 bobs worth.

Whats sad is you been able to be so hypocritical and look yourself in the mirror still.

wheres the truth in anything you dribbling about
 
This whole thread has turned into an us v them thread. If your not happy with crowd figures thats fine, but don't blame one section of fans, because that just creates division. If you truely embraced the JV, you wouldn't look at it as ex-Magpie fans are responsible for C-town crowd figures and ex-Balmain fans are responsible for numbers at Leichardt. If you truely embraced both sides, you would say ALL Wests Tigers fans are responsible for crowd figures everywhere

How many was at Penrith Park last night ?
Looked pretty sparse.

A smidge above 5,500 I think mate

Geez Smeg … There hasn't been one that low for a while.
Glad it wasn't our home match !

It was up there with their worst crowds ever I believe.

Atrocious night, no Origin players for the Panters. It was never going to be a pretty one but the number did suprise me
 
Multiple posts in this thread have been deleted due to people getting personal with one another, after I originally asked people to keep it clean, stay on topic and act like adults. Since this has failed to eventuate, the next post that is deemed to be a personal attack will result in this thread being locked, and the offending member placed on mod preview.

I would hope that the Wests Tigers take a far more academic approach
to where their fan base arises from. You are essentially advocating
for a deliberate misinterpretation of statistics. The Wests Tigers
needs to know where fans are coming from, that includes ex Balmain
and ex Magpies fans. It has nothing to do with "embracing" Wests
Tigers.

Wests Tigers should be able to discuss these things without chanting
"God Bless America" before saying something controversial.

I tried to make the point to you earlier in this thread, that you have one black eye
and one white eye (it may have been a little esoteric for you). You are a member
of a divisive element. If, as you claim you are a Wests Tigers man, I hope you
can accept this advice with good grace.

I'm sorry but my eyes are Black, White and Gold. I'm sure though if someone said they had one Black eye and the other Gold that would be acceptable to you that they left out the White? I'm proud to call myself a Tiger, theres no division from my end. Would have thought i made that clear in my last post 😕

Lol i love how in SOME people's eyes if you show any kind of pride in the Magpies you get laballed as being divisive and having one Black eye and one White eye, then those same people wil turn around and refer to the Wests Tigers as the 'Black and Golds' and don't see a problem with that. I can assure you my friend my eyes are Black, White and Gold :sign:

Theyd know via memberships data…..other than that I doubt theyve any more info.
As for Humpty & Skando being concerned about the crowd, well if they really were, and if the club undertake any sort of investigation or analysis into the area....you'd of thought/think we woludve heard/hear about it through this forum.

I pointed out early in the piece every game that round had very poor crowds....a fact lost on nearly all.

I would like to think they were a little more sophisticated than that.
Membership data could be quite misleading. Balmain fans are probably
a little more dinky than Campbelltown fans. Campbelltown fans might
find going to the football as a familay more or a treat so to speak,
than a membership thing.

I go to quite a few matches (and have a membership), but I like to take every nephew and niece
I can get my hands on, but it costs a small fortune. Everyone has limited
resources and I can't do it every match. Football crowds don't target families anymore.

I thought the 14k was quite passale. I'm largely commenting on the hyprocisy
of certain posters.
