I've visited the Mfc Website. Isn't August the month of Debt Demolition? There is nothing on the Home Page about this.

Is there a link to where to make a donation? Haven't found one yet.

I'd like the ball to start rolling. the Aim was a reported $1 million to be raised to wipe off more debt for the club.

If anyone knows please post a link as soon as you come accross it, can we also pin it up.

Afterall, it's important in order to get ahead of the pack.

Cheers

Debt demolition.

Surprisingly, at debtdemolition.com, just like last year :P

Thankyou. very clever of you.

You think there would be a link at 5th of August to start with. Still, I'm sure everything will go swimmingly.

Donated. :P

Fwiw, Debt Demolition and the URL were advertised on the scoreboard during the Melb v Rich game.

Correct. I'm referring to the website in particular. It was well advertised last year. Just something that I think needs some exposure.

Now appearing as the top link in the picture box on melbournefc.com.au

Still haven't decided what my contribution will be this year, but if a poor uni student like myself can scratch together a few cents then surely we can co-operatively get rid of this $2 Million debt!

LAst night was the debt demolition function. Was $1000 a head and basically that you would donate or your company would donate $5000....

Was a very good turn out, hopefully we raised a shiteload of money!!!

The meter is currently standing at $726,990. I NEVER want to hear anyone in the media EVER AGAIN say that Melbourne supporters are not passionate about their club.

Sensational! Thanks Brett.

Brian Taylor, Mark Robinson, Mark Stevens take note!!! I'm sure there is others.

The Debtometer - looking to raise $2Million, wouldn't it be great if Melbournefc and its supporters were able to wipe off alll the debt and start fresh for 2010 with an exciting side. We would be on the up big time.

Go DEES!!

Interesting quote from Bailey from this article by Matt Burgan, speaking about onfield success: -

"I would like to think we'll get there a little bit quicker than what people might think," Bailey said.

An exciting year next year nevertheless.

Going well isn't it.

That debt, we're "slapping it like it's a red haired stepson"

careful, we like them at Melbourne.

I'm secretly hoping we manage to snare Gary Rohan too

(...not so secret now)

I'll be happy if we get much over $1M. Then we can demolish the debt in 2010.
Is that based on another month of debt demolition or based on a bumper year in terms of profit? Do you think the club will continue it as an annual event? Or do you think those that donate would soon like to see more 'bang for their buck?'

That would be good, I think the prizemoney for winning the Pre season cup is around $250,000 or thereabouts.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date.
