I see that 2008 "Members Scarves" are now available at the Demon Shop for $25 ! Why are'nt they included in our 2008 Membership package like every other club - the only time you need a tie is in the MCC Long Room...BORING !!!!!

I actually prefer the tie - for something different this year. I can use it if I get to any club functions for the season...

Perhaps next year they will consider it an option to choose a scarf OR something else.

I don't really understand... Does every member get a tie, even us female members?

No, I think you get some sort of pashmina scarf.

Hell even I'd prefer a pashmina scarf.

Already got more ties than a high class Berlin hooker!

You can get plain scarves from the Demon Shop for $10.

I have a drawer brimming with MFC scarves, seeing the whole family are MFC supporters. I think it's a good idea to change.

A tie. Good Grief!!!!

Yet more ammunition for supporters of other clubs to make fun of us and to reinforce the stereotype of us as wealthy upper-class business-types.

Why not throw in some ski-gear as well!!!

My tie will go straight into the bin

What a useless gift

Although it could useful if we have a another season like last year, cos I will have something to hang myself with

I think we should encourage that erroneous stereotype. It must be easier looking for sponsors if you're considered wealthy! BMW, Volvo,up-market clothes,real estate, stock-brokers, travel companies etc..

What's the good of pushing Emirates Airlines to "impoverished" battlers at Collingwood?? ? ("wood" that it were true!)

Just received my membership renewal letter/package.

Does anyone else think it's pretty stupid that they've sent out a membership card, a pen and keychain in the membership RENEWAL letter, when it is no guarantee that the person receiving the letter is going to sign up again ie. not become a member? Are the pen and keychain designed to entice a previous member to remain a member?

Seems like a bit of a waste of money to me, money that we can't really afford to lose..

Great idea!! I could do with a new set of skis.

Range Rover driving gloves in MFC colours would be good.

membership incentive ideas...

Sponsorship by ski lift companies - half price midweek ski lift tickets for MFC members.

MFC Guernsey Car Covers...now how cool would that look on the Rangey whilst parked at the lower regions of Mt.Buller!

Tweed jacket with Red & Blue elbow patches work.

Maybe even throw in a pipe

Totally agree Yze, c'mon dees. This is the Melbourne FOOTY club, not the damned snotty nosed Melbourne club.....................

Just represent the grass roots footy supporters, this superior snobbiness is becoming a real TURNOFF................. :angry:

I want a Premiership, don't care if i get a tie or a scarf really-Priorities!!

The only people happy with this gift would be the bayside toffs who wear ties in the shower
