I have received an Invitation from Matthew Lloyd to sign up membership of Essendon FC!! Any one else get one?

Addressed to me by name as a "keen Bomber supporter", I find that insulting as I hate them particularly after 2000 GF!!

How the hell did my name get on a Bomber mailing list???

I know I have nearly ran Lloydy over a couple of times - he was a bit slow and kept walking in front of my car while in rehab!

My friends who support the EFC would not even give them my name a a joke as I am 2nd generation lifelong Demons supporter.

##### rude !!! I have to get me name off that list ASAP. Dont want to be linked to one of the cellar dwellers.

I am also letting MFC know.

Maybe Bombers having snagged Mel Michael are going poaching other clubs members???

I thought I was the only one!

It was a very formal letter, and it was addressed to me. I don't know how they got hold of my name.

Needless to say I spat on it, tore it up and threw it in the bin. Ugh, I felt dirty for just having read it.

I'm not satisfied you did enough!

It's not like it's a total fire ban or anything.

Is it 3 mobile phone the connection between all of us?

Nope. I'm with Optus, and I haven't received any letters asking me to donate to the 'rebuilding fund of Princess Park', or to join the CFC.

I'm really interested to know how they got hold of our names :wacko:

Nope its not that! I have telstra mobile and optus home phone so is not 3!

If I knew which house was Matty Lloyd's I could have stuffed them in his mail box last night!! Wouldnt be seen with their mail in daylight!!! :lol:

I like the idea of sending mail back to bummers without stamp !! ;)

We are everywhere. We're bigger than the UN.

You guys are lucky you just got a letter about membership, if we really don't like you, you could wake up with a horses head in your bed.

Everywhere just like the asian flu epidemic.....Softer thas the UN...

...and a horses head in the bed would be preferable over Chris Heffernan on any given day thanks.

Yes I got one to. I'm not even with 3. I was shocked and thought how did they get my details. I actually rang the number to there client services department and said I have no idea how you got my name but I don't even barrack for Essendon. They then took me off the database. They are the club I hate the most and I hate Lloyd so much. I couldn't believe it. They wasted so much money sending out letters to the wrong people.

yeh i got that letter and an email....i replied to the email asking how they got my personal details and also let it slip that i was a dees member and they couldnt pay me to be a bummer!

they called me a 'passionate bommer fan'.....that made me want to throw up!

i wonder if they know that they are sending this crap to supporters of other clubs?

maybe it has something to do with where you live...im in essendon...maybe thats why?? but then why didnt anyone else in my family get one?

Should we let our membership department know there is an email/letter war out there? Maybe the press might be interested as well. What do we think? I am still annoyed 3 days later.

Is everyone giving their details to bomber blitz? in order to participate in the forum. then they would be mailing stuff to u?

I'm sure the MFC staff have NOTHING better to do than hear about how Essendon sent you some promo material ;)

Unless Essendon somehow got MFC member details and decided to send out letters to them - which would stupid and not just in a business sense - I doubt they'd care.

What's the common thread with you guys? Someone suggested the forum but I find it odd you'd give your address when signing up on a forum, although it could be just me =p

From Sydney

I have never received anything personally from the swans to join up to their club

But in the Daily Telegraph the only AFL news they report on is Sydney Swans, and purchase a 3 ticket pass to Telstra Stadium to watch the swans

But thankfully, I can get AFL news via big footy, hearld sun and news about the demons from this website

they got the our information from ticketmaster.....

I take it you know this as fact?

Did any of you guys tick the box (assuming you book on-line) that you agree to receive promotional material? That is code for telling them (Ticketmaster) to sell your personal details to any trustworthy organisation that has something to sell you that you don't want. You'll have to tell them to de-list you (something seekers and most other posters here wish essendon had done to Heff before we traded for him).

last year when melb played essendon at TD i remember that we werent able to buy tickets at the gate or something so i was forced to use ticketmaster...im assuming thats when they got my details....however i dont recall clicking any boxes as i hate getting those 'promotional emails'

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
