Saintsational Fan Forum - A passionate community of St Kilda Football Club fans discussing news, history, players, trade rumours, results, AFL stats and more.
Just been on facebook chatting to an interstate friend when up pops another message from someone who I haven't spoken to in at least 12 months. I think "oh this is nice, time for a catch up chat".....
Their message "The Cats are better than the Saints"
Not sure why statements like that hurt me more now than they ever did.
When I was the only Stkilda supporter in both primary and secondary school, comments like that used to just roll off me. Now, they almost bring me to tears

Not only that, this person doesn't even follow AFL, so they can't even back that stupid and hurtful statement up.
That's what makes it worse. They think they are cool by saying things like that but if they really understood, they would have more diplomacy. I won't say get over it because I know how you feel.
Maxstar know how you feel was at Emirates Stakes day last week with about 30 people last race of the day backed a horse called Our Saint $20 each way bloody horse came in second by the smallest of margins not only foul on missing out on a big pay but turned around all my friend sstarted clapping second again.
So typical of the Saints!
Told the to bugger off!LOL!

I learnt to accept a long time ago that the ones that bag/comment or stir over things that arn't trivial like an ordinary game of home and away - arnt real supporters.
There is a mutual respect amongst real supporters of different clubs - because if they truly knew the feeling, they wouldn't do it. ie players leaving, finals losses etc.
Learn to ignore it - You dont get into bagging rights/football discussion with no brain fair weather supporters....Because at the end of the day, football isn't as important to them so your just wasting your time as your own expense.

Wow, DG sounds like he belongs on big footy! Thanks for pointing it out, was a great laugh for the afternoon
"You can get more money elsewhere, but [St Kilda] is our home, we love it to death, so why would you want to leave?"

This is the good thing about living in Perth with neither of the Western Australian teams in the top eight - few people care about the football after round 22.
My mates - not a lot of whom are too interested in footy I should add - were very good about the Grand Final though and told me they were sorry the Saints didn't win. I think most people - at least over here anyway - were hoping the Saints would win.
I have actually had the opposite, people wait until I bring up the subject and those who fnd out that I'm saints supporter say "I'm sure your still gutted".....
