THE ROBERT LLOYD - A BLOG FOR GRUMPY OLD MEN

I thought it was time given the positiveness and upbeat nature currently of most EELS fans, that those who can find little joy in the world should have a place where they can whinge and complain in freedom.

Now you can complain about this blog as is your want or use it as a tool to get your pessimistic message out there.

Should you be successful in willing our team of inept coaches and players into a failure this year, Im sure youll recruit many fans to your religion.

But can I also ask that if someone goes to the trouble of putting up a more positive blog based on their feelings, that you resist the urge to bring the tone down and instead retreat here to make your comments.

I think that will work for all on this site.

PS. Those who have witnessed the 80's should be glad that they at least, were there for a glimpse of the EELS at their finest hour. Those who were born after, are the ones who truly deserve to be the miserable ones.

Cheers

  • I understand where you are coming from.

    Like you I witnessed the 80s and attended the 82 G.F.

    However after the last few years where we successfully won 2 wooden spoons, I like many others have an air of anticipation this year with the squad we have recruited and taking in to fact our 9's success and promising pre season fixtures I like a large majority of Eels fans truly believe we will make the eight.

    If we don't, it is only human nature to start criticising the staff and start the negative vibes.

    Hope we can go close to winning title this year.

    • Kerry, that is the worst spray I have read on the site. You should be ashamed of yourself.

      This blog is for complainers, not wide eyed dreamer supporters.

      and hoping we can win???? round up your unicorn and get the hell out of this blog!!!!

      lol :)

  • Exactlt what this blog is about Horo. Well done.

    Hang on, should I have complain about your post?

  • Im really getting sick of French people, hundreds of French backpackers living in my street 365 days a year, they talk ridiculously loud, they are rude, smelly, dirty, obnoxious, and selfish people.

    • God-damned cheese eating surrender monkeys! May their berets give them alopecia!!

    • Yeah but they know a shitload about wine, and they can french kiss like motherf****rs :)

    • That sounds a bit not French to the bench there Snake
  • If that last sentence were true TBUR, why is it only married men who complain about the amount if sex they're not getting?
    I don't seem to hear my 10 year old son complain - must be because he's ever had it.
    Same as the fans born post 86 - never enjoyed a victory so they don't know what they're missing!!!
    • Trust you to go down the no sex with missus route and you could be right.

      So does whinging about it, improve the probability of getting what you want? or is it just a lesson in futility?

      Frank, this blog was made with you in mind ;)

      Hopefully it can have some footy comments too, or else "someone" will shut it down.

    • It was shit, every eels jersey ever made with white in it has been shit imo.

      Message to Larissa, stop putting white in our jerseys, both the 9s and trials jersey were utter garbage.
