    Re: Dogs' challenging times

    I'm happy to keep the name but change to the '54 jumper with red and blue hoops on white for the away strip. Done

      Ledge if you are heading to Eithad on Saturday you will be confronted with some supporters asking you to sign a petition for a name change. Thats why I started a new thread and poll on it.

        I will be going but wont be signing, seems to have come out of the blue to me after the jumper idea.

          Agree with other posters. Keep the name and change the jumper.
          Might need a change at the top, love Smorgy but I sniff staleness.

              What I don't understand is if Sue Alberti is in Dimma's plans, for god sake just come out and put all the cards on the table. This back stabbing has been going on for months. I might be wrong but I think Smorgo would give his blessing if some one like Sue wanted to be President. Also why wasn't the talked about challenge at the time of the last election followed through. Too much talk and not enough action or my liking.

                I just think we should focus on winning a flag!

                The name and jumper isnt the reason we havent made finals this year....

                    I'd keep going BAD.
                    Fans that were 4-6yo kids at the time and not yet into or understanding football, would now be around the 20yo mark and only know the club as WB.

                          Yeah that's me. Footscray as a name means absolutely nothing to me except it's what 'old' people call the Western Bulldogs every now and then.

                          Definitely agree we should, leave it alone.
