I had the good fortune of being offered a ticket to the Presidents Dinner tonight at our game against the crows.
As it turned out I Was seated next to Chancellor George Pappas, one of our great club's Directors. George was the lucky recipient of the table prize which was a Worksafe Sherrin Footy. George kindly asked if anyone on the table had a son who would appreciate the footy.
My son probably won't appreciate it but I'm sure his dad will.
Anyway, I was able to get David Smorgon, Laurie Sandilands, Geoff Jennings, Simon Beasley and Ross Abbey to sign it. More importantly I had the chance to have a beer with some great names associated with OUR footy club. Do not disregard the heritage of the Footscray Football Club, be proud of OUR club and stay loyal.
