Melburnian Posted January 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 We seem to get a lot of people for derbies who hardly come back! Hence why One Melburnian is so vital. There are people out there who support is enough to be a well supported club. They just don't turn up! We really need these people and new people to not only attend derbies, but attend our other home games and more importantly, sign up as members! Really with this 3 game Flexi membership, there is no excuses anymore. You support this club, well truly support it! Not just for derbies! I have no trouble bringing anyone to a derby game, it's everything else that's important! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jw1739 Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 We seem to get a lot of people for derbies who hardly come back! Typical human behaviour I'm afraid. Look at any tennis court around the place and you'll see people playing on it. A week after the AO the courts will be deserted until next year. People are always fascinated by the big event.

I have no trouble bringing anyone to a derby game, it's everything else that's important! It is funnnier when we consider that after wins we have crowd spikes, until the last derby we had won or drawn the last 4? or more and 2 of those had been great 3-2 wins ect and then they dont come back. It spikes the trend of all our other form to attendance records does it not? Plus the atmosphere at derbies is great, it is weird how nobody odes get converted, Maybe it is just having someone you know lead the way and really encourage it? alot of the derby goers may just be that and go off their own accord and not have people pushing them to return, that is why onemelburnian is so strong, it creates that link through friendship and atmosphere to convert these part timers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbobbobmarley Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 Any crowd estimates for the derby, i'm thinking 30-35k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mentor Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 Any crowd estimates for the derby, i'm thinking 30-35k easily 30K i would say whatever Etihad is minus about 5-8K so say they are 45K stadium or so it might be more, i would say 37+ thousand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's much easier that way to keep them coming back! Anyway, we will keep on keeping on! Hopefully majority of our fans really push the 3 game membership to their family and friends for the next few games! No reason we can't achieve our goals! If you haven't gotten behind One Melburnian please do! Need every single one of our fans to contribute! We are the core, we need to build our club!

HeartLK Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 I'm wearing my melbourne heart top to parramatta stadium tomorrow, I don't care if I get bashed lol Love the dedication. I reckon we should have a day when we all wear our heart tops n scarfs just out n about. Could u imagine if u were in the city for work or uni or whatever n u saw a bunch of people throughout the day wearing heart tops. Not a bad way of promoting the club. Also not a bad way of getting to know other heart fans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our passion rubs off to others. 3 new guys tonight, bringing them to the pre game, doing the march, sitting in away active area, they will fall in love like the others I have brought before! #OneMelburnian works.

Good point ill be there, btw since i already have a ga ticket (my mate didn't want to sit in yarraside) and i don't really want to buy another so can i just sneak in with the march? Also, I'll continue to be persistent, but these are tough people to crack. I couldn't get any of them to come to a soccer's match last year when i had a free ticket.

Last chance to do it as three games left. I'm gonna push this hard this week, club needs members not walk ins. Members commit to the club. Walk ins most experienced on Saturday night! Not saying yours will be or anyone's, but we have to create a membership based culture! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
