Was this another FFA manufactured draw so that only one Melbourne team are in the GF?

9157. This is the highest pre season "membership" we have ever had and there's still 2 weeks to go.

What is encouraging is his "beast" rating

I thought Wikipedia was able to be modified by anyone.

I'm with you. Last year we got 881 over this period but in the "Villa season" (2014/15), which I look on as the benchmark, we racked up 1563

Don't doubt that we will hit 9,000 by the first match..... But how close to 10,000 will we get?

Can't make out who it was - but what a great cross.

As JW says it depends how and what you count. But, for the record "memberships" were: Sydney mcfc 2014/15 11501 11759 2015/16 13154 9431 2016/17 (as of 31/10/16) 9201 8015 We are currently tracking more than 11% above the "Villa" season of 2014/15

Absolutely. That's how we started too.

Knew nothing about it. Where was it advertised.

What I would prefer is to compare our membership to the year before last when we had a similar amount of marquee hype with David Villa. What is encouraging is that this comparison also shows us well up in numbers.

Typo??

Ditto. He gives his all for the team when he's on the ground.

You looking for a green line with your bold statements? Actually there are quite a few South Americans in Melbourne and if the city media guys get off their asses and promote Bruno and Fernando properly they could be attracted. As a follow on ......... If the media guys get off their asses and promote the players and team .......

Don't ask - t's a secret. But probably running about a third of the Tards (as we usually do!!). Don't expect to see any numbers until our marquees are announced. Don't ask - t's a secret.

Not an uncommon experience.

Murder is OK but how many did you have to sleep with?

Oops. You mean City Blue

This is my worry. I honestly don't think he will generate the hype that is suggested. We could have done a whole lot better for the money. However this is what FFA think is good for the A-league and they have been willing to change the rules to allow us to have effectively 3 marquee players. So long as he doesn't stuff up the structure of the team.

Wot, no shin soreness?

I don't know why there is all this hype (hope) about Tim Cahill being a drawcard. I think he is a name only to people who already follow football but particularly to those who follow the Soccerroos, and these people would probably already be following a local team. I just can't see people coming to watch MCFC because Timmy is on the ground. If you want a big name to attract crowds go and get a real big name.

Like one day cricket was for the game!!

No, it's good management and PR. At the end of this month all existing prebooked seats become free and available. Just making sure that there are no disgruntled members losing out on their opportunity to have the same seats this year.

In. Love my football too much. If JVS stays I will be very happy to join the chorus of boos when his face appears on the big screen.
