Football Queensland Blue Carded

Crossed that White Line

Been involved with football/ maintained support since 1961 and held positions on Non For Profit entities in various roles of management across different sports and never have I witnessed what I came across on the Football Queensland Facebook site of late in regard to political content.

As a former director I was educated in Corporate Governance, Compliance, and ethical standards when in the role and the boundaries of interaction with any businesses, and outside entities including politicians, so I went into shock when I saw I regard as Football Queensland openly promoting the LNP and supplying Props and personnel for Photo Opportunities and advertising for “prospective” donations from sitting and wanna be”s candidates who will sell you a car with a free bumper bar….See below

Let me be clear here, its your role as a director to lobby all politicians for grants and support for your organisation but knowing the separation from the political process and your role as a NFP representative was part of your Corporate Governance Obligations and ethical standards of the people who you represent.

Football Queensland has failed that standard and tied its support to the political wagon openly and blatantly by the below and once you cross that line you put your association in political debate like it or not. …..


Token Alp.?

This I regard as poor strategic control ,possible a small club,might make in a community by inexperienced non street wise volunteers, not Directors of a national entity ..
No-one needs to tell us how important it is to have funds flowing into the coffers to support out causes but if its with conditions outside the process of submissions for grants or from the sitting members electoral allowances, we are on a very slippery slope.

Once you have announced your allegiance and advertised it you and in the bull ring of the politics like it or not the reputation sticks and this wedding FQ has entered reeks of the “Sports Rorts” saga and one would have though the alarm bells might be ringing, but apparently not.
Let’s not forget the clubs they represent, are they comfortable with this arrangement and what if they are not in the right electorate will they be defunded or squeezed?

Is this the tip of the iceberg of changing the whole grants process leaving it to the Member to hand out the goodies and change the Grant system and they are using Football Queensland as a wedge??
The questions would never need to be answered if separation was maintained, and me personally do not want to see NFP organisations ending up like the American system where funds can be withdrawn for political reasons from a volunteer or people you serve.

This is a shocking decision to go down this road and the Board must make clarify its position to affiliates on how it made this decision and who is accountable.

In the interest of transparency I am a ALP member which I declared on every single appointment and I declared and stood down when any conflict by association decisions were on the floor including pecuniary interests as per Corporate Governance Provisions.

That declaration should be forthcoming from each Director of Football Queensland and not just assumed.

The Grump.

Is America now a Rough State ?

Trust and Tradition are off the Table.

It hasn’t taken long for the real agenda of the Trump Regime to begin the dismantle the democratic structure Americans have based their ideology on since its inception ,although it was never really democratic in its true meaning .
Trumps task will be quite simple really as the public has little or no idea of what is actually happening and if they do they will be targeted and eventually shut down by his Gestapo.

Burning of the Books, Destroying the education system, designating a one language society, ceasing medical support and research, stopping vaccinations, are aimed at the lower middle class overall cleansing which he and Musk see as overheads to his vision of the new America.

The sad fact is the people who voted for him will be the first to feel the wave of change they refuse to believe and it’s not their fault at all.

Since Reagan America has been systematically dumbed down by
indoctrination into a belief their county is a pin iCal of world freedom and power while so uneducated in anything outside their own shores to a point where reading a world map is a exception to the normal.

Religion and Patriotism and Politics and The Legal system are intermingled and used as a weapon of the Obligarts who control all aspects of what they regard as government. Yes just like Russia and any dictatorships, they have no realisation as they have been kept in their own fart bubble and think any contradiction to their indocunated ideology is Communism or Socialism..

This American Dream they think they live in suits both sides of politics, keeps the rich and influential in the gold seats regardless of who is elected, and as per their Constitution no one will ever change as it was written when slavery and discrimination was part of every day society and kept in other forms to this day.


So it’s a big expectation for the average American to consume and evaluate what is happening in World affairs if their media outlets are politically biased and very limited access to independent resources, and even when they exist and they report any detrimental copy to the establishment in power, they are closed down, censured and banned as in any dictatorship..

American freedom of The Press, constitutes both sides are free to spin blatant lies leaving the public without any middle ground to seek out truth, which suits the simplistic option of “With me or against Me” principal maintaining the dumbed down choices that keeps the partisans fighting it out, all part of the God on my side , Freedom playbook.

One doesn’t need a high IQ to sit back and realise Trump has lied to his base again, but worse than that he is going to structure HIS America based on a business model dictatorship not a democratic government, then again they wouldn’t know as their education system is as analysed below:

“In the United States, 79% of adults have literacy skills at or above level 2, while 21% have low literacy skills. This means that 130 million adults in the US are deficient in basic literacy. 

So asking them to understand Tariffs, European Affairs and other countries is beyond their scope unless and HERE IT COMES they go to Social Media and then enter the “Clowns”.

No it’s not just America with the social media cancer the whole frigging world has the pox on society, where fantasy and logic and truth compete.

This challenge is far too much for some when it comes to actually act with some intellect and its now a playground for the disinformation, propaganda, and basic lying and sadly many think that’s their source of actual facts, and hence it easy to sell a car with a free bumper bar and they leap to the sale. Trump majors in this arena.

Anyway with all that said I have a real problem with the TrumPutin alliance and it will affect my country and that activates my cannons to anyone who chooses to interfere with our sovereignty or way of life.

Like Canada and Ukraine, Greenland Europe we will not be dictated to by thugs, and now America has taken on the Soviet position its not hard to take the next step to believe Trump was supported by that state for many years covertly and has been Putins Puppet by his clear actions in Ukraine and his love for Dictators extend to supporting Netanyahu’s the extermination of Palestinians in Gaza.

Its not in my DNA to not call it when it reaches a point where I will not call out lies, and after 74 years I can pick a pathological lier, and Trump ticks every box, Putin a Trained KGB lier, and Netanyahu a Criminal at every level imaginable, all allies to a cause of extermination and invasion ,a toxic ideology that sent us to war on both occasions and our people to their graves.

Anyone who supports the TrumPutin-Netanyhu ideology has no place in any democracy full stop.

In closing my risk management training tells me that the Trump plan to get Ukraine’s minerals is precursor to him on-selling them to Putin selling the Ukraine people out and after that factor in him coming to Australia and Greenland after our minerals in the same way.

I trust a brown snake or blue ringed octopus before I will ever believe a word from the present White House on any thing other than their own self interest.

The Great 26th Australia Day Scam.

Truth Time

Before I go down this road I wish to make it clear or all reader’s I am fiercely an Australian but Not A Patriot similar to the American race.
I love my country but I don’t need to prove it to you by shoving a flag in your face, or screaming it sporting events or generally just being a boisterous dickhead dragging my flag, dressing in it, or generally using it as a profit item for any retailer, political party or company offshore or even onshore.

To me my flag is sacred and although I despise having to carry another national on my flag I live in hope we one day will be mature enough to tear ourselves away from our colonial past and put on our big boys pants and stand like a real Australian, void of outside symbolism.

However we in Australia have been conned, we have conned our children and continually conning not only our locals but migrants into thinking that 26 date is THE Day this Country was formed when a foreign flag was raised on our shores, not the day it was discovered and proceeded with varying facts conveniently disregarded to suit the colonial narrative then later the financially commercialisation of our population into believing the myths to suit a centenary 1988 celebrations.

My first question to those who were born post war was do you remember celebrating Australia Day in school?
Never, it was Queens Birthday. But never Australia Day that started in 1994.. ( See Link Below and Note its Source)

So how many Australians died in the World Wars One and Two?
Answer NONE. They died as British Subjects Not Australians.

See Link Below Re Australian Citizenship Act 1949.

Put that into perspective here and you can see why in both world wars Australian Soldiers were used as cannon fodder as claimed by many military analysts agreed by our enemies later, and covered up by the establishment.

Yes it’s a uncomfortable truth that joins the Frontier Wars and the genocide hidden from our history and embarrassing to the Establishment, the ones that uses a man, a Prime Minister Menzies who abandoned his country along with the American General took a ship to England when the Japanese were expected to invade our shores and he and the American forces were prepared to give up the top end of Australia and fight for the rest when they got to The Brisbane Line..

Taught in Schools? … No, but are you getting a long term trend emerging here?

We are / we’re expendable and as long as we tie ourselves to these traditions and nations we will remain in the servant class but it’s up to us to educate the truth and need to re-educate our post 1949 citizens and beyond the that truth.

Below an article from Radschool , an Air Force Magazine.

https://www.radschool.org.au/magazines/Vol77/pdf/Below%20is%20the%20correct%20reason%20Australia%20Day%20is%20celebrated%20on%2026%20January.pdf

Sporting Networks May have the Key on Domestic Violence.

Lets Not Reinvent The Wheel on DV

No one in our country should be comfortable with tolerance to Domestic Violence ever.

We are hearing all the outrage via media and all calling for a solution but this issues has been a sleeping giant and no politician of any persuasion has a magic solution BUT if we are SMART there is a model that we know works if you want to follow.

I refer you to the FIFA model on Tolerance to Racism.
For the ones who are not familiar please let me pass on the basic principals.

FIRSTLY you have to be committed to wanting a solution and prepared to follow it totally.

START at the lowest level of in “Australia’s” case ALL sporting events at all grounds at all clubs promote the STOP DV LOGO (yet to be Invented) before every day and through the day on the grounds,and the higher the age the banner exposure is increased to before main matches by all players.
When it comes to TV it’s compulsory both teams stand behind the banner and promoted by the network.

SECONDLY
ALL CLUBS are the eyes and ears of their communities and if DV is detected it’s a duty to act via reporting to a network system (Yet to be Formed) within that code or organisation that has connection with the appropriate authorities to act.

For example(TRUE STORY) a very high profile player professional who was identified within his club as a abuser was refused contract renewal and dropped from the squad as the Club was going against its pledges and it was a reflection on the entire club if it was tolerated, as is racism.
HIGH BENCHMARK “”yes” NO TOLERANCE APPLIES.

I do not expect all codes of sport to get on board easily as some struggle as racism is still part of the support base so how could we expect them to have the ability to accept something that maybe still part of their culture and would see this initiative as trivial and even a threat.

I’ll be totally honest FIFA still has issues with racism internationally with non compliance but its come a long way and the people now are putting pressure on the sporting administrators if racism is detected and they are held to account.

If our politicians ARE FAIR DINKUM then starting to address this problem must Start at the grass roots.

Kids and Mums Know it goes on and often have no where to go. Club officials and clubs can be that safe place to talk if that culture is promoted.

Yes, it sets up a network where they can go but not all kids play sport but of if each sporting association are funded to show that do not tolerate DV the word will spread.

Yes I have been a President, Chairman, Secretary Captain, State Coach, Junior Coach, and player in my past life and it would be a added responsibility, but with some support as part of the national initiative we can take a leaf from FIFA and use it to change our perspective on this DV pandemic.

Politically speaking, I would include the Non tolerance to Racism and Domestic Violence as a joint campaign and joint ongoing campaign throughout all sporting bodies in the nation, and I hear the “We just take it as read” stance is a great hiding place, but if you want real impact we must start with the kids, and it’s NOT a quick solution, no culture change is but that’s what we have to do even if it’s not politically expedient at the time.

History Repeats with EV’s

Rant Alert Electric Cars

Well I’m old enough to remember when Toyota introduced a car to Australia the entire media and the self appointed car connoisseurs went into meltdown.


They could not consume that any manufacturer outside Britain and USA knew anything about how cars perform in Australia and European cars were for the elites.


The “Toe Jo “ cars were made of plastic, their petrol tanks were too small, they’ll boil continually, their engines were like motor mowers and you’ll never get parts..


That Paranoia is happening right now with electric cars..
The media are loving bad news again, and exactly the same grown men are behaving tile kiddies with the boogy man..


And like the great 5G, and other sad conspiracy peddlers , the technology will surpass the hype of the nay sayers, as they forget for years Formula E have been racing cars which is leading testing technology’s and any doubts of what’s to come can be allayed if you take the time to just look at that industry.


I’m more than happy with our Subaru and it will see us out, as will many others but I enjoy watching progress as we did with computers, telecommunications, TV, Cars and Trucks and I refuse to let the ones who have their own agendas to keep progress at bay for their own profits and ideology and Stifle our future without a challenge.

Rant Over.

The Hazard Goes Live.

The Grump and the Hazard go Video

Ive made a decision..
Yep I did
Ive been blogging and facebooking, Instagramming and Twittering, now Threading and Redditting and found it’s easy to talk into the echo chamber and believe your own press.

Overall those platforms I’ve expressed local and current affairs opinions in both websites
The Lateral Hazard and The Girral Grump

So as I /We move to the sunset of our lives I’m going to combine both in video and Margaret can now let her voice be heard, something I’ve been hearing 50 odd years…

Todays happenings, yesteryear and some historic stuff you will see and hear that might just surprise, and be uncomfortable for some.. Tuff Tits but here it comes..

Both Web sites will still be active and Facebook stuff will continue but another content like Family history and Sporting history, Political History and our opinions may not be the same, Surprise -Surprise , it’ll be different ……NOT

Game On on the Grump on UTube

https://youtube.com/@wayneoffer5594?si=gMpRl8JCUy3nob06


It’s A Con and did you take The Bait?

Well I suppose we all can get caught up in the hype these days with social media and the last week or so since the Olympics have stated it seems has provided a even better platform for the the world to be drawn into the lies and YES ill call them LIES about…..
1/ The Opening Ceremony fake claims about the Christian Last Supper
2/ The Female Boxer who has been JUDGED by the Masses as a male.

Dealing with the Christian Supper Portrait by a artist impression ( NOT REAL its a IMPRESSION) that made the Americas Christians attack the French revealing their total ignorance of French History, Ancient Gods, Theatre, and dare I say Class.
A beat up created by the MAGNA propaganda machine to secure up the Christian vote as they struggle to gain lost traction since a female has entered the game.
SUCKED IN SUCKERS

Secondly the most distressing SHAM is the attack on the Abyssinian Boxer who is FEMALE NOT MALE, BORN FEMALE with a genetic abnormality SEE BELOW >>>>again used b y MAGNA on its attack on the transgender population as part of their agenda to appeal to the undeniable misogynistic racist base, where anything is on when you desperate.. SEE BELOW>>>

Some facts not disclosed

This boxing issue has hit a nerve with me as I have personal experiences with women who may well have had this chromosome issue when I was a young tradesman apprentice at the shipyard.

In the 60’s we weren’t as educated in human genetics other than race and colour and it was bought to my attention of a young migrant Scandinavian on the quiet that the actual tradesman was a woman.
It was a well kept secret among those with integrity among the selected staff on the ground and it went totally unnoticed as she dressed and behaved as male and hid it, overcoming no ammenities provided. Her routine was well planned and he work quality was outstanding and when the hooter went she was out the gate and gone.
A second women was hired, a Slav, a exceptional welder again dressed and performed as Boiler-making tradesman later again undetected nearly as one person decided to chance his luck and challenge his assumption as was treated in the ambulance room for a fall, and his co assumption mates failed to show outside the gates for a discussion.

So both of these women, both migrants from Yungabar Migrant Hostel were built as males, worked like males, paid as males, I imagine, which was ground breaking yet NEVER discussed for their own well being in a male environment in Australia, yet they were accepted in their home countries as part of the war effort where no one judged.

Yes this entire schrade has sucked in the masses as propaganda does to the un wary but I wonder if anyone actually thought how would this young woman get this far to qualify without special scrutiny from World officials???????
NO I suggest just find a story, lace it with lies, and wait for the click bait to spread the poison.. DER. PEOPLES




Magna is not big on History so a quote to research..

Enough Said.

🇺🇸Common Sense Abandoned 🇺🇸

At a age of 74 I have been to a few rodeos in human behaviour and witnessed how we all deal with life, land, ethnic opinions, religion, politics and through football I have learnt to appreciate all views with respect.

That respect did come with some conditions as it had to be mutual and with ethical standards and if one stepped outside one would expect to be reminded of the alleged infringement.

Common human interactions one would think, and honesty how blunt or flowered it was delivered, not always accepted., but delivered.

Been involved in politics and a Party member for 40 years, run for public office and failed, twice, and through all that one would / should accept different opinions provided they stacked up with the common goal of bettering our society and not detrimental to our country

That said, one of my countries major ally the USA is loosing its status as a reliable, and through it own actions seems to bent on self destruction, but sadly they cannot see the pending crash, as they could not see the red flags on the Global Financial Crisis, Vietnam, Pearl Harbour, to name a few.

Stability is the key to world peace and when a nation is unstable its enemies will exploit that instability, but I cannot expect the average Joe in America to see that as they have been kept dumbed down deliberately where only 47% are literate and that literacy comparrison of a Grade 6 level in my country.

See below

Not their fault, planned right back to their forefathers 250 years ago, and no party has the political will to change that document as it suits their agendas constructed around that premise that accumulated money is the only gauge of success and is guarded ruthlessly. The entitled will never relinquish that status and any challenge or suspected challenge is regarded as traitorous and unpatriotic, yet they peddle the “Great American Dream’ propaganda along with the endemic hate national government to the masses as part of the indoctrination process from birth, keeping the status quo on top of the heap.

That fanatical worshipping of the 250 year document opens the door to the actions of that time being dealt out in todays time, hence the misogyny and actions supported by the Christian Church disregarding the premise of separation of powers being a problem, exactly the policy dictators use to keep the masses under control, and combine that with the fragmentation of the law interpretations to government selected judges according to political beliefs, makes fair justice to all farcical and manipulative according to means.

Which brings me to violence, a subject all countries are fighting as we speak and will never really defeat but that does not make it acceptable, or part of life, or part of the political process.
Wars are man made, created by the old men for securing of wealth and property, and when that violence mindset translates into the society outside of that war footing of a nation, and everything is military attuned in that society, including politics you are close to a style of government similar to all of the countries America hates or are scared of.
When a nation indoctrinates its people to handing over their children to the military, controls the content in reading and learning material, legislate the flag and religion as compulsory and non compliance is not acceptable or a traitor, you surrender your democracy, then add the abortion issue, you have a silent dictatorship.

The fragmentation of the American society is a planned event starting at their inception. keeping the masses focuses on individuality, struggling to survive, and chasing fantasies to a point where they even appoint movie stars as leaders and quote their scrips in reality says a lot about the inequality of their education systems and why they cannot see the fall of Rome pending.

This is a sad state where whoever wins everyone still looses except the billionaires, divide and rule keeps the masses engaged in hate to a point where a civil war cannot be disregarded and that too will fill the coffers of the dealers of death, but this time it’s their kids that will die on their soil and not some others kid who’s parents have been sold a pup willingly and got a flag in return.


















A Pioneer of the Women’s Football Speaks

I find it interesting to hear Judy Doland complaining about loosing her title as the Matildas Women’s team first captain.


I don’t her her feeling sorry for the Australian Reps prior to her.


I was one of those pioneer football lady footballer that doesn’t receive any recognition because there wasn’t a ladies association,so we played under the JuniorAssociation.


I played for Brisbane and later Queensland but apparently I didn’t on the record, and there were Australian Teams picked back then but apparently their wasn’t.


Do the players of today realise if us pioneers hadn’t done the hard yards they would not be where they are today.


For the record I played for Annerley, and Newmarket Postal.

Margaret Offer Nee Crook
Age 75. Started playing 1964.

PS.. The name Matilda’s is in fact “The Commonwealth Bank Matilda’s” a commercial Identity today, that has hijacked the actual title of The Australian National Women’s Soccer Team, and thats when the history starts.

TheV.A.R. Exposes More than Infringements

Why the Talking Heads Hate the VAR

You hear it every week, they run entire shows discussing it , and the media despise it , but why?

Well punters here’s the guts, my humble view from just a lifetime of watching the NRL (well not since they handed it over to Murdock) but I hear the whaling, and football ( even bigger whaling) from the commentary boxes.

Since sports were called from radio first up the commentary was taken as gospel and that reliance of the the opinion was nearly always supported by a commentator who had experience in the sport, either playing or long term in the box, (IE Norman May, Wolstonhome , Walker, Tyler, Tapp, Magilvary) to name just a few, all had credibility, all were balanced and respected, a important factor in their professional careers .

Then came along the clown shows where cricketers wore coloured pyjamas and TV presentations and presenters decided they were part of the gig and wanted the bathe in the glory with the benefit of hindsight and video replays where their call was more important than then actual event we were watching or paying to watch.

This trend continues and now it runs its own competition of who gets the mike and dress up in the suits, and in Australia its a real battle of the super dickheads versus intelligent females in the football code calling rages.

Then enter this animal called the VAR and all of a sudden the elation of the commentator be it bias or balanced was challenged and to this day the right decision, the fair decision , is challenged as the talking heads need to look harder rather than talk or shout louder.

That’s beyond many sporting IQ as their experience and knowledge is questioned, or exposed and often they come up very short when the camera which they worship to make their profiles proves them undoubtably wrong… and proves it, taking away the what ifs, which they themselves should have taken into account.

Yep egg all over their faces on replay, not good for the profile on voice replay on the record.

Their response is to debunk the system, hand it back to doubt and controversy that makes easy media and their lack of talent securely hidden.

Its pretty easy to pick the journalists and the bozo’s as its always a decision that goes against their preferences and picks they rate themselves pre game, and when post game arrives the excuses and blame is allocated and VAR dampens the hype.

I can’t close without saying we in Australia need to have varying commentary on our football as for too long we have been brainwashed by the English game and yes it was all we saw and allowed to see, as the rest of the worlds game was never broadcast. That colonial culture still exists which is detrimental to our games progress in our nation, our youth needs to learn the world game from all the world, every week not just at World Cup time.
