Great effort and still got 3,000 who haven`t renewed yet, but the club is heading in the right direction off the field. Soon we should be aiming for around 35,000 to 40,000, and hopefully increase our home game attendances.

(unloyal bastards)

Firstly, what does "unloyal" mean. I assume you mean disloyal.

Secondly, what a pathetic comment when you have no idea of supporters/barrackers personal situations.

I'm sure they signed up last year because they thought we were going to make the finals too :rolleyes:

The Melbourne Football Club is proud to announce that it has broken its all-time membership record, following the success of the Club’s membership telethon, held at Red Mercury on Thursday night.

YOU BEAUTY! And Its only upwards from here !

We will get to 32,000 easily this year and hopefully we can continue making membership records from 2009 and beyond.

We are more than 29706, we are at least 29707, I can vouch for that. :)

Read in the paper today that we're 4,000 members ahead of the same time last year. Hopefully that means we'll crash well past 32,000.

With almost 3,000 unsigned members from last year, it's not impossible.

We are more than 29706, we are at least 29707, I can vouch for that. :)

Well done AdelaideDemon. Welcome aboard.

Yeah, last three years.

Also our Wiki page says that Mike Sheehan is a fan. This is the first I've heard of this. Is it true?? He is certainly exceptionally objective if it is!

I occasionally see him in the MCC on the bottom level with his son at Demons games.

Yeah.... Mike Sheehan is a Melbourne supporter..... Obviously his career forces him to show no allegiance to any particular club, but he indeed is a "fan" of the club :P

I reckon we'd be well over 30,000 at this point. The number says 29,706 but they won't tick it over to 30,000 until after the weekend. Fingers crossed they jump it up to 31,000 when they actually do announce it.

?

From wikipedia:

2000 18,227

2001 22,940

2002 20,152

2003 20,555

2004 25,252

2005 24,220

2006 24,698

2007 28,077

2008 29,619

2009 29,706

(My highlighting - record years)

It's a massive effort on the club's behalf to have raised our membership numbers by a massive 10,000 in just 6 years (given we sucked in 03, 07, 08 and 09). Amazing!

You know where to get +1 from. Hurry up and answer my PMs.

Sorry Hazy, I'm mental.

I meant we've increased membership for 5 years

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
