Last I was aware, there are loads of MCC members who are MFC supporters but still not members.
Is enough being done to try and rectify this? I know the club offers the token $50 membership, information for which is sent out with the MCC renewal every year (which is good). But why are so many still not taking this up?
Would any MCC/MFC members out there be willing to spread a survey or the like around to all those present in the members area wearing melbourne colours at games to find out? Or perhaps some MCC members not signed offer their feedback here...
Also - regarding the "Premium MFC/MCC" membership offering - how about including a real incentive? Entry to 11 games is a lay down misere for them anyway. OK the kids membership is one reasonable inclusion but hardly worth the $160. How about a sweetener like access to the social club? This would unite MFC members from both sides of the G something the club claims is important. Not sure how many would be interested but I for one have discussed this with a handful who ALL would be. Currently they part with the $50 but not the additional $110. When I catch up with them at games, we buy guest passes ($20 a pop or close enough) which gives them social club access but obviously the ongoing financial commitment to the club would be a far superior option...
Anyone have any ideas?
