Membership Suggestions from supporters
I was going to put this up last week when I noted changes
BUt with the club announcing new structure it's still relevant
what SIMPLE- and realistic suggestions do you have..
It can't hurt to offer advice from years or supporting and being members.
what do you most appreciate?
or what irks yous most.?
Knowing full well that some will post Unrealistic suggestions.......

What are the changes going to be? I have a few point that i think need to be rectified.
Last year we had a level 3 reserved seat and upgraded to a level 1 this year. I think you should be able to pick available seats remaining from a map i.e like Ticketmaster, if you would like to change your seat at season end.
We also took the opportunity to purchase Social Club membership this year, which we have enjoyed. The only concern i have was there was no Social Club facilities for the so called MCG home games (Rich and Geel game) and i have since found out the Club makes no money from the meal service and bar at Etihad Stadium.
Other than that i think the scarf/hat and other bits and pieces you receive as part of your membership package is ok

lack of decent functions in sa when they are over here
social club pin/badge (what the f*** was that killer footy silver thing this year?)
direct deposit straight from the bank, none of this credit card stuff, but have a credit card still linked to the members account (in case s*** happens)
option for a FITTED members cap.

Ditch the expensive marketing membership packs and multi packs to the same house - waste of money (getting 3 of everythingis ridiculous).
Put money into supporter social club activities - nights? events? (even subsidising an event with social club members given the opportunity to pay to attend.
Is foundation membership still recognised? if not, it should be as those who pay up week in week out regardless of ladder positions ought to be rewarded.
seperate issue:
Family day needs to be looked at. IMO split the kids into age brackets with the youngest getting a chance to participate in mini clinics etc ......Offer (for a small fee) coaching tours of facilities with a talk from player(s) coache(s)
I know we have more supporters than ever but we have to get smarter at maximising accessibility and Im not convinced tents with 5 mile long queues only to be told "sorry its all over" when u get there is the best way.

There was a social club facility at the G it was on level 2, there was a dining room\bar area, you had to display SC membership to gain entry. A lot of folk sat there and watched the whole game behind the glassando051 wrote:What are the changes going to be? I have a few point that i think need to be rectified.

Yeah ditch the stuff we pay for for being social club members living interstate so you can have more functions in melb. I am a Foundation social club member and had to sit up on the 3rd level on Sat night as their is no area for members who havent a reserved seat. (I did like it up there actually). But na just get rid of scarves hats etc so the Melbourne social club members can enjoy themselves moreTeflon wrote:Ditch the expensive marketing membership packs and multi packs to the same house - waste of money (getting 3 of everythingis ridiculous).

One aspect that really gets up my nose. Basically one 3rd of games are played interstate. Yet interstate members are pretty much ignored. All offers etc are for Melb based fans. Eg, thank you for being a Member here is a free ticket to the movies (in Melbourne). Thanks for being a member, get the Age free, etc. When the Saints go interstate, generally we don't get to see them. I like a membership package, didn't like that stupid key ring this year, to heavy and how many scarves and hats do we need. Needs to be different every year. Also would like recognition being a long term member. As for seating at Etihad, personally I hate the top level. Don't get to see a live game very often so I want to be up close and personal.
I like the scarves and the hats.
Being a full member, and a cheersquad member, but living overseas means that I got to one game this year. The win against Brisbane in Brisbane (yay!)
But when I get the stuff in the mail, it's really exciting. I wear my scarf lots (we can have 3-6 months of snow) and people often ask me who are the Saints. I like having lots from many years.
I didn't ever use the heavy keyring, but it is sitting in my desk.
I use the pencil case every day.

even if it was say $50 to $100 and include drinks and food it would be fantastic. Especially for those who live elsehwere and only make say one trip to training. Great xmas or birthday present and imagine the imcome this could make.GrumpyOne wrote:Not just on family days Teffers..... this should be available all year round.Teflon wrote:......Offer (for a small fee) coaching tours of facilities with a talk from player(s) coache(s)
Social lub events would make me stay. Hell bring back the original non reserved social club and I will continue. Otherwise I will save my money and every 10 years fork out more to see the grand final.

Ditch the "lead sinker" silver footy keyring and other wasteful plastic crap
A scarf and a sticker is enough
Put the fixture on the membership cards instead of photoshopped players
Lose James Sherry in King Street.... having him pretending to be a Saint, next week pretending to be a Kanga, it's ludicrous
that is all

I dont have an interstate victims mentality. You know NOTHING of me. I was in Melbourne last weekend and wow if thats the most livable city you got me.
I do like Melbourne and we do go there a few times a year (mainly for footy) but maybe you should get out of your bubble and look outside the suburb you live in. Isnt it (thePines)?
Maybe its time YOU stopped and took a look at your own backyard Saintspremier.
And Teflon I pay for 3 Social club memberships and yes I DO want 3 HATS and 3 SCARVES and i dont suck my thumb and as a few that know me on here i am not a knob so if you would like to pm me and apologise that will be fine, but until then dont talk for me and others when you say dont send the merchandise for being members

Being a Saints member for a very long time I think that it would be good to tick off if you want a scarf, hat or whatever else the club wants to offer.
Being a Social Club Reserved seat member I would like to see that only Saints people sit in these areas. It doesn't happen and opposition people are let in. We pay the premium to sit with ONLY Saints people. Like to see Saints clamp down on Saints members loaning their ticket to opposition supporters to sit in a Saints reserved area. NOT ON.
