Richmond football club was bailed out when collingwood came to there rescue do you know what year that was?

Question

I saw captain blood cry as he thanked the collingwood board for giving the tigers the cash to survive

Answer 1

wunda, on what grounds do you base your statement that Collingwood are 'selfish'?

You just cant see past your own bitterness and accept that Eddie and Collingwood FC dont just look out for themselves but for all VICTORIAN sides to ensure their survival.

I wish I knew what year that was !

Answer 2

I don't know the circumstances so I can't answer as to when this event took place.

So it was a straight forward 'gift' of this cash was it? I just can't accept that Collingwood FC would do anything that wasn't actually beneficial to themselves.

They are the most selfish club in the competition - & they have instilled this trait into their supporters - so there has to be more to this than what you are saying.

Answer 3

It was the late 80's 88 or 89
