Good question MCMH - Oh wow, your question has prompted me to look and I found this even earlier thread about the forum - for those 2010/11 and 2011/12 seasons. But unfortunately, we couldn't compile much in way of info back then: http://forum.insidesport.com.au/1140708/Membershipnumbersfor1011and1112seasonsAh, found this for GCU: http://www.theroar.com.au/2012/02/15/whats-to-be-done-with-gold-coast-united/Feb 2012 - By comparison, Gold Coast United has fewer than 400 members. There's this too, just in Fury's last days - not so much firm figures, but gives you an idea of where they were striving to be, but were falling short: www.foxsports.com.au/football/a-league/north-queensland-fury-dropped-from-a-league-after-being-unable-to-front-15million-for-licence/story-e6frf4gl-1226014174045 The FFA set stringent criteria for the Fury to meet to obtain an A-League licence: the club needed to prove that at least 5000 North Queenslanders would be interested in taking up season tickets or becoming members. Recent years the revived, NPL-based Fury entity, with Rabieh Krayem as Chariman suggested they have been aiming for 5k members as part of their push to be re-admitted into the A-League at some point: Jan 2014 - http://www.foxsports.com.au/football/a-league/simon-says-plans-being-made-to-reinstate-expansion-north-queensland-fury-into-the-aleague/story-e6frf4gl-1226806412802

+x+xCity have just overtaken Sydney in memberships Then a 15k should be the least to expect then. fit inline with what fc usually gets at smaller games. We'll see how many members actually turn up in tonights game. Dream on. Last season 4 of your games were sub 10k and over half were sub 13k. And 8/13 were sub 15k the season before.

+xWhat's the point of this table? AFL memberships have been on sale less than a month, most teams yet to even launch For right now, it is just to show the running total of FFA memberships. Wookie keeps updating it all year for the 3 codes. It isn't for a direct comparison between the codes at any one time really.

+xAustralia's national team played its first international in 1922. Let me know when aussie fools has a national team. Maybe you could play South Africa, you blokes were taking the country over 5 years ago, everyone in Melbourne was saying it. All those kids you threw egg balls at should be hitting draft age now, let's sit back and admire the hard work. It looks like http://www.aflsouthafrica.org official site is out of order for the time being.
Its a game for everyone. Its not pale, male, or stale. It transcends race, gender, economic status. Its for everyone. - Tal Karp

@ bigblueman
Every stadium deal in the country would seem to be unique but the one Roar have with Suncorp gives them a revenue share of the stadium naming rights, a share of the stadium members revenues and a share of f&b spend on match day. I'd assume most deals are similar.

+x+x+x+xIt is a great effort from City, their challenge is to convert memberships into game day attendance and more importantly increase average attendance - if that doesn't happen (at any club) the number itself is rather pointless. Huh? The membership number is arguably more important to the club than match day attendance... In fact, you could argue that you'd be doing your club more of a favour by staying at home and watching them on the telly, than by attending the game because you've then paid them for a membership AND helped bump the viewership, increasing the potential for advertising revenue. Members are great to have because they provide you with a revenue stream at the start of the season, but from there on out, I'd suggest what the clubs REALLY want, is non-ticket-holders buying new tickets - ideally driven by the members aiding the club in providing excitement and engagement. More people at the stadium means more stuff bought at the stadium increasing revenue. Thats not exactly the case is it? I thought clubs made very little from purchases inside the grounds. Apart from merchandise of course. I remember the Sydney derby at SFS last season (can't remember which one) broke the SFS record for most money spent at the venue for one matchday. Surely must have gotten a payout for that!

Apart from merchandise of course. Clubs also don't get more money if more people watch the game on the TV, they already had a deal signed. Arguably they do though. Why do you think CCM has struggled to find major sponsors in spite of their relative success? It's not just about the size of their local catchment area - that's just I've direction that an advertiser might target. It's about how many people watch the team, a metric in which we have unfortunately fared rather poorly. But I mean, it's not like "La Ionica" is looking to only sell in Melbourne. So increased ratings definitely simplifies the sponsorship negotiations.

Not to mention the overall return on a season membership sold for $250 is much better than a token membership of $30 and then watching at home which would only be worth no more than $10 - $20 a bucks a season to the broadcaster.
