Your Part in History, Gone!

Seagulls Downunder · Jan 17, 2017

If you purchased a Heritage Stone/ Tile and thought you were part of history, not anymore, the club are going to sell more.
Be Part of It, was the campaign before the staduim opened and those that did like myself were proud to do so, now anyone can do it & heres the real kick in the teeth,
they get a framed certificate in a presentation box, we got a certificate in a brown envelope.
I dare say there are many fans out there who missed the chance first time round & would love to do it, I'd probably do it myself if I hadn't already but don't slap the face of those
that did it originally.

This had a context that has passsed. I was going to add 'grow up' but that's a bit harsh.

You understand that over time all these new buyers will be part of the clubs heritage, yes?

Get over yourself.

Stop being a whingeing Pom.

Pathetic.

And yes I got an original stone too.

I paid for one for my dad who never lived to see the Amex and I have absolutely no problem with more stones being purchased! What exactly is your problem with this? Should others not have the opportunity to remember their loved ones?

I f#@king despair about some of our fans moaning sometimes, I really do.

BBassic · Jan 17, 2017

What if somebody wanted to purchase one for a dear departed relative but didn't have the funds before? Is their 'heritage' any less valid because they couldn't do so back then? Christ, of all the things to get pissy about.

I thought the campaign was called Alive & Kicking. That's what my certificate said.

Maybe we should chip together and get him his original post and stick it in a nice presentation box.

In the history of inappropriate marketing slogans for memorial stones, that has to be right up there..

How about we build a wall around yours?

Ha ha. At the time it was promised as your name on your seat, but then changed to plaques later. In fact, the first plaques/stones were so inferior, they had to re-do them all on a wall.

Yes, for the emotional trauma suffered here I think it's worthy.

Maybe a whip round too for a presentation box.

I'd like one. Cheaper than Woodvale Cemetery.

Brian Fantana · Jan 17, 2017

Unbelievable. Get a grip.

Of course they should be able to and they can, I think my post has been twisted some what.
