Breen & Fox

Post: # 1654183Post 1966 »

I found this article very interesting. A $1.45 million debt in the early 1980s was a huge sum of money.
No wonder we couldn't win a game back then.

Without doubt the darkest time in the clubs history and it still has not been properly acknowledged.

Good to see Barry Breen calling out Lindsay Fox over this.

Hopefully the players and coaches of the time are acknowledged and thanked.

Collo's been a greedy pig for a long time it seems. Just business, I suppose... and that is why I love Carlton's last 15 years so much... Just business


St. Kilda Football Club. Going strong, since 1960 :wink:

sometimes there are 2 or even 3 sides to stories- and these can become even more different as time goes on and memories become fallible.
