Attack11 Posted July 2, 2014 Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 Have the current owners not listened? I seem to remember that all passionate Heart Supports we screaming for this club to be successful. I even remember a banner stressing no more Meritocracy... So they are giving us a start studded team, an academy to produce young players, and I just read that the team is flying out to Manchester on Monday for a 17 day training camp. OK so all of that came at a price, Name change, and Colours (to an extent).. The only thing we had to look forward to in the past was occasionally smashing Victory, but now we are a serious team with a vision and the envy of all... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benderz Posted July 2, 2014 Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 Lets keep this membership related and positive rather than why we people are not joining as there is already another thread of 150 pages discussing. Posted over 3wks ago and now its only at 151 pages. Its dead, so no need to reopen it in another thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theresonlyonebzamora Posted July 2, 2014 Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 I even remember a banner stressing no more Meritocracy... "An elite group of people whose progress is based on ability and talent rather than on class privilege or wealth" So what you're saying is YS had a banner that was against CFG and foretold their own death? That's some Shakespeare shit right there. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suggestions on what to do, where to meet etc? Welcome to the family Damiano. The Imperial Hotel is now your second home, you're expected there before every home game and for the away ones to enjoy and contribute to the festivities. You'll also enjoy discounted meals and drinks when you show your membership card. At the game you're expected to stand and sing for 90 minutes with a smile on your face and hug that big burly bloke you've never met next to you when we score. You're in for a hell of a season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damiano Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 (edited) if this trend continues we could easily have 15K members come March 20th. With a 5k dropoff at Victory (they're getting nervous). Could easily see us being on an even keel (this season) with us being the stronger team come 2016-17 Edited July 4, 2014 by Damiano Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice work red or deadAnd we havent even signed our marquee men yet...techncally.How huge would it be when we sign Bresciano/Kennedy (I'm personally hoping for Cahill) and an International marquee like Xavi/Eto'o or others that have been bandied around!

schrecky Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 My first payment also came through today (i never renewed - just the auto thingy) I'm willing to bet we don't surpass 10k this year - that would be to greater a jump no matter who we sign.

I think the way we will past 10,000 is a solid start to the season but I think we should be happy with over 8,000 no matter who signs it comes down to results if we push high up the table the crowds will come.

Damiano Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 (edited) End of the day.....Melb Hearts biggest problem has always been letting down the fans on the first game of the season.....we look good and then stuff it up the first game and people on the edge don't sign up....we need to hammer Sydney FC in theFFA cup, then ppl will jump on in droves....you have to realise that the pendulum has completely swung in our favour now...as in before the neutral would always choose victory over us. it made no sense to come to us...now however more neutrals will come to us, which is great in terms of memberships.....

Nice work red or dead They are correct. It is mostly down to results and expectations of results. If city start losing games straight away then crowds will go back to heart levels.
