2011 Membership Running Tally

[Dreamin' Demon 10]

We'll easily make 20K before Christmas. Just hope the momentum continues to set records after 2010.

December 11, 2010: We're doing great, and that's about all there is to it.

439 to get for our 20,000 prior to Christmas. I assume the office will close for Christmas either on Friday or early next week. The best thing I read the other day is our reserved seat sales are well up.

Well I sit in the Olympic Stand & thats almost sold out.

So do I on level 2. The bar that is located directly behind me should be pumping with Melbourne supporters next year. I still think we need to move the premium members from the Hassett room to the Jim Stynes room

I'll admit to being one of those who haven't signed up for 2011. Will do so on either Monday or Tuesday of next week.

That delay has mostly been due to waiting on the outcome of a post-grad scholarship application (I got it) which would allow me to buy a more expensive pack but also partly due to the thoroughly depressing experiences I've had recently with the membership department. Every time I've spoken to someone at other parts of the club they've been fantastic - super enthusiastic, helpful, first-rate. Every time I've spoken to the membership division I get what seems to be a bored teenage girl who doesn't appear to give two hoots about the club and would rather I didn't ask any questions so she can go back to her Myspace and Twitter. That frustration was compounded when I had to call Richmond, Collingwood and Geelong to buy memberships for family members and found that their people were as super enthusiastic and helpful as everyone I've dealt with at MFC apart from the membership division.

Also, that lousy experience will make people far less inclined to upgrade (from 3-game to 11-game; from general admission to reserved, etc) or add on something extra that will ultimately help the club.

Of course I'm going to buy a membership but it just cheesed me off. Rant over; big year for Nathan Jones in 2011.

I'm always distracted... that's why I set up membership for auto-payment each year; and they still sms or email you to give you the chance to opt out if necessary.

This is significant. Well done so far on the membership !

Went to the Demon Shop on Batman Ave Brunton Ave this morning. They're flat out. Good to see.

[drdrake 3,187]

The hype continues to grow, when onfield catches off with our off field acheivements we will become the club that we should be.

[beelzebub 23,383]

First time EVER the Mfc has more than 20000 members before Xmas!! Bodes well.you might have to smell the blues but you'll be able to see us coming !! 40knwould have to be the goal in 2011. But we'll probably just fall short at 39666

Well done the Footy club and well done us ! Go Dees

We should remind ourselves that buying from the Demon Shop is just as good as buying a membership.

Brunton Ave, under the G.

A really awful place for retail but there you go.

It is terrible isn't it. Even Schwab commented on it at a particularly dreary members info night, i think it was before season 09 when he told us all how much poo we were in at the time

Thanks for the correction. Interesting that the stars on the back of the stock from China are the wrong colour (-orange). The new stock in March will apparently have the correct colour (yellow or gold). Minor hiccup IMO. The staff are disappointed, but that's China I guess (or communication error). Still, I purchased my young son's first jumper (no.31 on the back). Still looks great.

Staff are very helpful and considerate. They've been flat out. Getting to the store - park elsewhere and walk there is the best option.

It's a real shame the Demon Shop isn't at the Melbourne Town Hall, Brunton Ave is just dead set dangerous to stop on during weekdays.

I hope at some stage the shop is moved...
