2016/17 Membership

[MagpieMariner]

Welcome to the heights, look forward to comments from another member of this forum who is now able to see the game.

The game that I see may not necessarily be the same game you're watching.

 

[Wombat]

Anyone got a number

Apparently MC has a special sort of number for you Middy.
If you talk long enough......we make get new CB!

 

[Fishsdad]

Now that TW is out, I'd be VERY interested to see if there is any change in the membership trend. For example, if we have been averaging (say)100 renewals / new memberships per month, has this increased (or possibly decreased) since the TW announcement?

We would probably need several weeks stats before drawing any conclusion. Is there anyone that has an 'in' on this info? Timnah?

Given the number of people who said they'd renew once TW was sacked, an upward trend wouldn't surprise me, but no I don't have any 'in' on this info.

 

[FFC Mariner]

I renewed within an hour of the news Rowdy so thats 1

 

[midfielder]

Tow mates renewed within 12 hours of the announcement

 

[Big Al]

I wonder if it played a part in his sacking?

We have not had any updates and plenty seemed to be holding out if he was retained.

CCM: "Tony we need to significantly increase our Membership numbers & market research indicates that, ....well .... um .....
..........your sacked !"

TW:

 

[banarama]

Current membership is 3624.

If like last season it is normally updated weekly on the A League site every Wednesday, I re-joined early however was very hesitant with TW at the helm. Glad I did and looking forward to going to at least one game at Canberra and think the Newcastle deal with the derby was a good one and I will more than likely take the family along to Newcastle for the first time.

That is actually pretty good (*very surprised*). We are up on what were were this time last year which was 3138. If we get a respected coach we may break our record.

True and another player or two to go with the respected coach would be awesome. You would think there is a chance with Rosey gone now.

 

[FFC Mariner]

Be nice to see it with the Canberra numbers stripped out

 

[Capt. Awesome]

I highly doubt there would be many Canberra memberships bought. No benifit to signing up early for that. Most people would purchase on the day.

 

[Tevor]

I'm more than likely going to the match against the Nix in Canberra and decided not to purchase the add on at renewal and will just purchase on the day. I think you had to purchase a package for both Canberra games which was my hurdle, can commit to one game but two is a stretch. Look forward to trying the boutique NZ beers at the Nix game.

Brisbane have less than 900 memberships sold.
Considering they came higher than us and beat us 3 times last year, Coasties are a very loyal bunch.

Yeah and 50,000 of the glory hunters come out of the woodwork with brand new shirts if they make a home GF.

Yeah but if anyone has been following what has been happening up there with the owners/management you will realise they could be a bigger basket case than Jets or Gold Coast ever were. I am impressed that they have signed up 900.

I hope the FFA have not spent all the money on the Jets and any they had left over on Timmy. They are going to have to take Roar over sooner or later.

It is another ongoing worry for the A-League, and encouragement to us that the pain we are currently going through is unfortunately necessary for survival.

I'm afraid if we are get to that stage the answer would be - move along MC - welcome Southern Sydney.

It amazes me that the Mariner`s are focus of the media`s attention due to our financial state, yet the likes of Newcastle & Brisbane remain unscathed.
Historically our owners have steered the ship through some dangerous waters but we have come out the other side intact.
MC & Shaun realized that we had to take a step backwards to ensure we could move forward & as much as most on here don`t like it we do accept it to ensure our viability.
We may have another tough season ahead but if we can hold on to our young guns, the future seems to be bright.
