Mariners V MV Rd 9 - NSO match

[dibo]

Exactly. If they put the same amount of effort into the home games, they wouldn't need to move to North Sydney.

This.

Yep

Something just doesn't seem right about the txt I mean why would they just refer to themselves as "MARINERS" & not ccmariners or central coast mariners i just checked my email & there was nothing, doesn't the club normally contact member via email NOT txt

Looking over my old messages, there have been a couple, one from a random number (you can usually set these things to use a random number or whatever text you want)

going back a bit further

and then today's effort

Why are they dropping "Central Coast" and "CC" from all their marketing now?

 

[dibo]

Drop the emphasis so NS people don't feel like they're supporting someone else's team?

Seems a bit phoney to me cos i didn't sign up for anything like that & FFS!!!!! HOW THE F**K DID THEY GET MY NUMBER

lol calm down, it's from the (Central Coast) Mariners

 

[rbakersmith]

I think they have sent that to everyone who is in the database. No problem with this but why can't this be done for home games? I fail to understand why the massive effort put in for the NSO game can't be replicated for CCS games.

Given that the overwhelming majority of recipients are members, why would they do this for home games? We know when they're on, and in most cases we turn up - to me it sounds like a waste of money.

Yes I am sure it's the Mariners trolling us with SMS now

Third Rock From The Sun Mariners. Y'know, because there's a big potential fanbase in the western spiral arm of the milky way. They're mostly snowballs and amoeba, but we think we're onto a good thing and we're willing to give it time.

have you read some of their latest posts they've even started to steal some of the RBB's chants

WE'RE FROM THE STREETS OF NORTHERN SYDNEY, CHINOS ROLLED UP TO THE KNEE, WE EAT CAVIAR FOREVER, AND SOME FRESH OYSTERS ON THE SIDE
FFS!!!!!!!!!

hmm. That sounds very familiar. Almost as if somebody I know has already used that one against me on Twitter some months ago. Hmm.

I would have thought that there would be provision in the rules concerning the suitability of the playing surface at any venue. But no, all I can find are rules relating to commercial considerations. Nothing I can find relating to player safety where the playing surface is concerned.

Probably in the same vein as a referee making a decision based on heavy rain/ water on the pitch.

I know a number of people who haven't been members for seasons now and still got the text.It's a great marketing tool if done correctly.

Can always market like this to people who haven't renewed memberships.
It's easier to get a previous sale/client back than it is to go out hunting new ones.

Bozza had this to say about the pitch:

2 all @gomvfc supporters & CCM Mariners as well. I have visited NSO twice,Wednesday and yesterday. The pitch is like a carpet. Barring more rain(which is possible) or CCM asking it 2 b watered b4 hand it is in excellent condition. Obviously the cricket pitch area is a wee bit harder than the rest of the pitch,it's not discernibly so. The ground staff have done a wonderful job.xmb

Plus i'm sure that all the free tickets given out as part of the membership have to have a phone number entered in order to get the freebie (at least i have seen it done when friends have used mine). All these numbers must be recorded somewhere...so that is all members, past members, people using free tics, people registering an interest maybe......would add up.
