Our Website

[Shmekel 0]

The one or two members of staff that actually remain at the club should really look at our website and change a couple of references to 2007 to the current year which is already 3 months old.

Also, please don't send any additional envelopes with no letter, just a lanyard and pen. It does not reflect well on the club.

I feel sorry for iPrimus which have their name attached to that disgrace of a pen. The information on the pull out is a joke and the spring does not let it 'fling' back into the pen.

Time to get it right guys.

If we have 20,000 members that all received another pen and lanyard, then we have spent $10K on postage plus envelopes and the actual merchandise. Maybe the club should consider waiting until all parts of the membership pack are in stock and send it with one mailout. It would save a fortune.

Not enough threads here already for you to have a whinge in?

I agree about the wasted money.

You would think that a club that is screaming out for $ would do something about it.

It seems that the club sites are slowly being changed to the 2008 "AFL webpage" Format.

Ours seems to be one of the last to be done. Clubs like the Bulldogs and Adelaide have the new format already.

there are a lot of threads going around here about this sort of thing...but those pens truly are terrible. My pen managed to break in 5 different ways within the first few hours of recieving it :angry:

The pen's probably worth about $0.80c.

How's the rest of your life holding up?

I can see the point being made.. people can make light of the idea its only a cheap pen.. But if so why send the bloody thing.. Also why waste money if we're supposed to be strapped?.

There's an old adage...look after the pennies and the pounds look after themselves.

we waste 10 grand here.. 10 grand there 15 over there etc..

This money could be going to something that actually has merit instead of down the gurgler.

So Rhino..as it doesnt bother you.. I can count on a check to the club to cover all the wastgae ?? B)

It's a valid point that Shmekel makes. It is little things like this that make the Melbourne Football Club inferior to those "powerhouses". The sooner the club, and more specifically the supporters, wake up to this - the better.

Looks like the Shmekle was heard (not the first time the smekle is listened to...)

By the way, for those that thought my comment regarding the pen was saying that I wanted a better pen, I think you misunderstood me. I would like the club to either produce quality for our supporters (both on and off the field) rather than the rubbish that is currently being sent to members. Let's hope our new CEO ensures that all departments are producing the best quality for the greatest club in the land.

i'm checking out the new website now, and at first glance it seems pretty good!
