jw1739 Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 (edited) 8,272 was the official attendance. Other than for home derbies it was the second-highest ever home attendance, despite what was widely thought to be a poorly-scheduled match. IIRC we were second or third on the table at that point. Unfortunately, the Adelaide game was the start of a slump in form. Eleven days latter we drew 7,223 to the home match against Perth. I don't think anyone really disputes the point you make about winning more matches at home to improve attendances. Winning more matches also creates positive media coverage. Once these two things happen, then memberships are likely to rise. Edited August 5, 2012 by jw1739 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony999 Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 I still have to purchase my membership and two other mates (one new member) but my dad will be dropping off. If we get what we did last year I think that is reasonable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

belaguttman Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 got an email from the club and we currently have a total of 3305 members for the 2012-13 season. The only way that we are going to get significantly more is to win home games. That would be a pleasant change, I'm looking forward to seeing it this season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mentor Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 The only way that we are going to get significantly more is to win home games. That would be a pleasant change, I'm looking forward to seeing it this season Has been said but yes, winning games early will mean that we gain momentum and support and draw new and old members back into the club, PLaying attractive football ect attacking scoring goals will make people want to watch us.

Hazzaverx Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 And what are we doing to increase that number? Or cater for those who are already members? Note that WSW drew 4,116 to a pre-season game vs. Blacktown, and there's a full report on the HAL web-site. How many were at Port last night - 400? I e-mailed Heart HQ on Tuesday to ask about admission cost to the Port game - haven't even had the courtesy of a reply. This is simply because they are a new club.. If west Sydney were playing someone down here, I would go just for a look, check out the competition.. It could simply be curiosity, not just from wanderes fans, but from Sydney fc too. And tbh, 400 attendance in the middle of the week isn't a bad effort anyway.. It's attendance at the park that matters when it really comes down to it, that's what makes the club money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
