Reluctantly I have to correct you by saying "we have a lot of barrackers out there" and they came out in spades in our last game of 2016 (when we could have made the finals)! Many of these were MCC members who were too tight to pay the extra for their MFC 'add-on'!

 

Sure. They are there. Just need convincing

this club has let them down for so long

There would need to be a large number of churn Dr. We have different opinions on what that number is.

Peter Jackson said when he first came on board that although the figures were similar to the year before we had actually lost about 8k members who didn't renew. That takes it to about 45k right there and that was just one year.

Still yet to receive my pack nearly 2 weeks later.. Hopefully it comes before the weekend.

Yea check mate, I re-upped on the auto process took 6 weeks for the pack to arrive. 

37,025

That is 2,000 up on 10 days ago.  600 of that due to the fine efforts of our players and staff calling fans.

 

Prior to 2016 our highest membership was 36,937 in 2011.  Yes 2011!  So, a mini milestone was reached today! 

 

It won't be long before we break the 2016 record of 39,211 final tally   Then 40,000 is just around the corner. About the time of our ANZAC Eve game, maybe?

37,525

Absolutely storming towards 40,000.

Go Dee's!

If we win Sunday I imagine we'll be teetering on the 40k line early next week. 

How many do we usually sign up at the first home game?

Probably one of the few benefits of barracking for a smaller club is not having to be part of the massive human migration to the G each week which is part and parcel of a Collingwood supporters lot. No waiting for beers, fighting your way through the toothless hordes or missing the first couple of minutes of the last quarter because you had to line up to use the loo. No, we are much more civilised lot. Quality over quantity 

And by the way BBO I enjoyed your contribution to the Demonland podcast although I was picturing you on the phone with your feet up, patting the lads whilst admiring your fishnet stockings. It was unusually disturbing

What a win does:

21 March

Saints 36,906    Melbourne 35,756

29 March

Saints 37,767    Melbourne 37,525

They have added 861 while we have added 1769. And that was their home game.

Let me just say fndee that I have not yet heard the magnificent  broadcast debut of the bitter voice I can assure you that nothing will prepare you for the utter  horror of meeting such a degenerate.

back to the old old dee, od?

That has to be a country and western song ...

I bought a reserved seat membership but obviously I won't have my card before Sunday, I got an email today with a ticket to print off so I can go Sunday but the ticket is just general admission doesn't have section or my seat number on it is that normal, I would like to sit in the seat I paid for

Hint is to join/rejoin in 2016 not in the last few days.

My package was received ages ago and my brother and I (both longtime members) are taking our father (who only let his membership lapse this year) to the ground Sunday to celebrate his 92nd birthday by watching a Dees victory over Carlton!

Why did your father pull out after 92 years this year ?
