2011 Membership Running Tally

[Longsufferingnomore 1,500]

Thanks for updating guys, they hadn't updated it for at least a week, so I forgot about it.

November 25, 2010: As previously posted, we've cracked 15k. Currently our tally is at 15,123, 811 more than this stage last year, where we were at 14,312. It's roughly a 6% increase.

Note to everyone, sign up by November 26 (wait, that's tomorrow) and you get a free 2011 MFC calendar, two changeroom passes an you go into the draw to win two tickets to our 2011 best and fairest.

I keep forgetting to remind my mum.

Note to everyone, sign up by November 26... and you get... two changeroom passes...

Are you sure? That would mean there would be 30,000+ changeroom passes floating around already, doesn't sound right.

Thank you for your support of the Melbourne Football Club.

There's the email I got sent, so yeah, there's two draws.

Just signed up my 7-month old nephew this morning.

His dad's a lion but mum's a demon so he'll probably end up with memberships at both clubs.

The battle for his heart and mind has begun

I've come across many families in this predicament. If you live in Melbourne, then thankfully the little one will be growing up in what will probably be the Demons most successful era in many year.

He will be amongst many of todays young to jump onto the Demons wagon & form the nucleous of the futures membership army.

16,355

I was just about to say that.

November 29, 2010: We're really speeding along now. We're currently sitting at 16,355 members, ahead of (roughly) the same stage last year, where the tally was 15,609. These figures are from December 2, 2009, so they aren't spot on, but we're about 800 ahead, as we were on my last update.

20k by 2011's a good chance. We were on about 18,000 at the start of this year from memory, so if we all start signing up (I'm pretty sure I'm not alone in this), it's not out of the question.

Just upgraded my membership for 2011.

I have a 17 game membership, where do premium MFC members sit at the away games?

Wherever. I was a junior member this year so my 17 game membership got me into the MCC (my dad's a member, so we went to both the Collingwood matches and the second Hawthorn one), but I normally sat where the cheer squad is located, which, at an away game, is generally the Ponsford Stand.

thinking about getting a legends membership, although at 800+ it is quite steep. obviously it would be as a donation - im already a 17 game reserved seat member as well as MCC/MFC member. but i really cant think of a better way to spend some of my tax return. however, id certainly be looking at getting something of value out of this for myself... selfish i know.

does anyone have one of these memberships - and are they worth the coin?

Depends on whether you take up the 'extras' like pregame, after game, dinners, special events for VIPs etc.

If you like going to that stuff - find out what they are and make and judgement call.

If you live in Canberra just forget about it.

Yeah, yeah...

I've backtracked from that ham-fisted, yet veracious, self-gratification.

A not to every demonlander just add $35.00 more and come and join the cheer squad i have made some life long friends and we all sit together. The more the better for our club, as all the money goes to the club and you get to sit with other demon members.

[daisycutter 28,727]

Good to see

BTW did you mean veracious or vociferous or voracious?

Veracious.

I could have said 'honest' or 'truthful'...

But I didn't.

Ahhh, veracious as in (self) rightous?

[rpfc 27,692]

Clever.

And, of course I'm self righteous - I'm rpfc - I thought we'd met?

If you had said vivacious I wouldn't have questioned it
