I'm starting this thread because Andy is too much of a gentleman to ask for some help to run this site.

Everyone of us has benefited by the the conversations, banter, humour, despair, joy and excitement of being part of this site.

What else would we be doing during the off-season without our daily dose of Demonland?

To the point, the site costs money to run.  You have all seen the value of the new software that Andy and Nasher have installed.  And guess who paid for that?

What everyone doesn't see is the extra time and labour and tweaking which then has to be done to make it all work.

"Demonland is a Melbourne Football Club fan site powered by fans for the fans. There are many costs associated in bringing you this site. We offer Lifetime and Annual subscriptions so that you can contribute to the running of the site but we are also aware that there are people who want to contribute but can only afford a little bit or have already contributed and want to again. If you would like to make a donation to Demonland it would be greatly appreciated and will go towards running and maintaining this website. "

So without Andy having to ask, perhaps we can all show our gratitude and thanks by tipping in a little toward the target of $2,000.

 

EDIT: Changed the target to $2,000 which is what it cost Andy to purchase the new software. 

Here's starting it off with $100

Now that the site has been up dated i seem to have lost the info on when my subscription is due.

Can anyone help?

I can help you with that. I will get back to you shortly. We are currently upgrading the subscription software and it will be online and available soon. I will start up a separate thread when that is ready.

I agree 100% george.  As I said in another thread, I'm an interstate member, and Demonland is my football 'lifeline'.  Long may it prosper, but that won't happen without a hell of a lot of hard work by the dedicated Administrators, and the generosity good will of Demonlanders generally.

Im a life member which was pretty cheap a couple of years back.

If I pay 10cents per hour I read this site, Thats at least 1 hour a day. (sometimes 3) Times 7 equals $.70 a week.

Times 52 = $36.40 a year.

Ive tried to wean myself off Demonland, but like MFC Ive been too long in the wasteland and Im rusted on.

I can easily donate another $36.

I think their raffles have predetermined results, just like how they reward Melbourne based members that attend every home game and not interstate members who continually renew their membership, and offer incentives to new members.

 

just my thoughts....

That is so generous of you guys. Thank you so much. It is very much appreciated.

Here is a link. http://demonland.com/forums/clients/donations/

There is a link on the homepage too.

Cheers Andy. Happy to contribute.

After so many raffles, I reckon I'm well overdue for a prize this year. 

The closest I've come was the China Southern Airlines promotion at the G. My paper plane missed by a bees digit, thanks to a wind shift surrounding the G. Well that's my POV anyway :)

OMG when I went to the donation site it said the total reached was $666. I immediately panicked and tried to add another 50 to get away from that infernal number but the process keeps jamming on a 'share location' pop up. Have tried exiting and starting again three times, but the same thing happens.

That infernal number is my fault. Apologies Doc. #dontpanic

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    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
