Re: LYON RECEPTION THIS FRIDAY NIGHT
So many dumb **** responses on here!
It is the current board of the St kilda Football Club who did not show loyalty to Ross Lyon and not the other way around!
So many simplistic vacuous airheads on here who would not get the drum even with a brass band up them!

When a long serving employee leaves it's normal to pass the hat around for a gift.
Not sure we did this for Ross if not lets try:
-Gift voucher for investment advice
-Hair replacement therapy
-framed photo of Lovett

Re: LYON RECEPTION THIS FRIDAY NIGHT
Whether or not you agree with the why, the pure fact is that Lyon walked for more money at a club that he thought had a better shot of winning a flag in the short to medium term.
He left the club, in what some footy analysts believe, short supply of youngsters coming through. Supporters no doubt have reason to feel betrayed. Football is more than a game to a lot of people and they feel that its like a partner cheating on them. No matter what you think there will be those at the ground that will finally have the chance to vent their frustrations at a bloke who they feel left when the hard work was really only beginning.
If you don't like it....bad luck that's football and it will always happen the emotion will get involved. Humans aren't robots after all.
Oh and B4E last time I checked he walked not the other way around. Keep your anti board bias to threads made by you about 'sacking the board'![Rolling Eyes :roll:](./images/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif)

Re: LYON RECEPTION THIS FRIDAY NIGHT
Watched an interview he did with Sandy Roberts this week, I still like hearing him talk, he is mildly amused by the interest this week and you can tell it doesn't bother him other than to tickle his humour a little.
He mentioned, and I thought it was interesting, about how the Freo board gave him a presentation and it was enough to get him in the door.
Interesting.
So ,when did this happen?
In the few minutes after he got off the plane and headed to the Freo presser?![Wink :wink:](./images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)

Barks4Eva may be right about the board, all they had to do is make him observe his 3 months notice!

Re: LYON RECEPTION THIS FRIDAY NIGHT
Been strange watching/listening to him in interviews this week. It still evokes some feeling within for me,and I'm not even sure I wanted him to stay?
I don't think I've felt this weird about one of ours leaving since Lockett,we've had numerous others leave,but you get over that pretty quickly. I guess he went to war with us,we went through an extraordinarily hurtful experience that others outside the Stkilda football club will never know. He was with us through that,he felt that,he was us,so it's just weird watching him on the other side now talking about playing against us,and the people that went to war for him. The enormity of what our club went through,I don't think you can get over that in 1-2 years...it's just weird watching him now not wearing our colours. So,6 months ago,he decided he wanted to jump ship,but we're still here,the people that went through it all,the players that went through it all are still here,and I hope we send him a comprehensive message friday night,that although he may have moved on from those back to back losses,we haven't, and we decimate those show ponies from the west. Let a comprehensive victory remind him what he walked out on

Re: LYON RECEPTION THIS FRIDAY NIGHT
To be honest, I loved the fruits of his gameplan (2 grand finals and a position of respect) but the style of play? .....glad to be shot of him!

Wont boo. Wont be clapping though...
Just want the win - that annoys Lyon most.
Worried Sandilands could have have 123 hit outs and 80% to adavantage....

My thoughts exactly.
Good on him for nearly pulling off the biggie....but maybe that crap style of play was ultimately the killer blow...dunno.
In any case, I look forward to much more enjoyable footy to watch from now on.
And I doubt we will be hearing "kick the bloody thing" much at all given our very high kick to handball ratio!

Absolute complete and utter silence as they take to the field would be very effective!
Especially given there'll be all of 12 Dockers there.
"The inches we need are everywhere around us. They're in every break in the game. Every minute, every second. On this team we fight for that inch. On this team we tear ourselves and everyone around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when we add up all those inches that's gonna make the f***in' difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying!'

Re: LYON RECEPTION THIS FRIDAY NIGHT
Haven't read the whole thread - but I won't be 'booing' - never do. Rather save the hate energy for something positive towards the Saints players and hopefully a win - that's all I care about ![Shocked :shock:](./images/smilies/icon_eek.gif)
Be more worried about Sandilands - 54 hitouts last week - maybe Thor can play on him....
My biggest regret with Lyon was the departure of Luke Ball, for which I blamed the coach more than the player/money

Re: LYON RECEPTION THIS FRIDAY NIGHT
I was pretty devastated when he walked out on the Saints because I thought he was a great coach (Luke Ball departure, boring game plan, no injection of youth aside). I was determined back then that I'd really give him a spray at this game, but as they say, time heals all wounds, and now I'm actually really grateful that he's moved on. I don't want to get ahead of myself but Scotty Watters looks really good and I'm actually enjoying going to the footy again. No more games where the scores pretty much resemble soccer scores but we actually see some free flowing footy....the new coach was the breath of fresh air that we needed and I get the impression that the senior guys, Riewoldt, Kosi, Dal etc have been reinvigorated and look like they've got a new lease of life.
Thanks for leaving Ross, I won't give you an earful tomorrow night (unless we lose)....as for Zac, I can't guarantee that there will no expletives coming from me.

Re: LYON RECEPTION THIS FRIDAY NIGHT
Will be booing him whenever he walks out.
The man committed bastardry of the highest order against our club, no excuse for it.
I also will be cheering our guys whenever we win a contest or kick a goal.

Re: LYON RECEPTION THIS FRIDAY NIGHT
Very disappointed in this comment too. Bill is a life member and the senior member of an official arm of the Club. Surely when Lenny asks for restraint he could at least zip it and not say stuff that the media will twist.slider wrote:how embarrasing to have people reacting to Ross Lyon this way and this from some tool in the cheer sqaud

Re: LYON RECEPTION THIS FRIDAY NIGHT
Always funny seeing grown men boo. Will just be laughing when i see grown people giving Lyon crap. If i was Lyon i would turn around and tell them to go back to their $30,000 a year job and there 1 bedroom house, with weeds out the front etc. Ross Lyon has acheived more then most of the Nimbats that will give him crap.
I thank him for installing a profesionalism to the club and bringing his gameplan that got us to 2 Grand Finals.
