You have three very recent flags to fall back on.
I've been wearing s*** for decades, signing up every year, turning up through flogging after flogging (including last Sunday), travelled interstate to support time and again, bought into every false dawn and been heavily let down as many times. Merchandise, memberships, tickets, functions, you name it - in the past year alone, I reckon I've tipped in at least 5k to the joint.
This ain't up to the fans this time around. We've held up our end. I'm sitting this weekend out.
