Melbourne cracked the 6k mark now, doing quite well really.

source? if you got that from Adelaide reds site, that is the last number they had from last year unfortunately

Yep, Wanderers 7007.

looks like WSW will crack 7000 today and Melb City will also smash through 6000.

Bit of an update:

Melb City = 5959
Melb V = 9147
Adelaide = 6415

WSW 6952

Surely with what the Nux dished up last night they'll have more than 3500 members.

Yeah don't bother comparing WSW membership numbers from the same time last year. Last year membership renewals started June 6 and went till July 4. Membership renewals this year didn't start until July 18.

Then there's also the fact that last season we only had 7,500 members when renewals came around so most of the action was when general public sales started. This year almost everything will be during the renewal stage and the fact that members know they have a month to renew means they're in no rush.

Far out I love this counter.

PerthGlory

The HE issues .. are Home End issues and reactions of the various groups to FFA decisions pertaining to seating and memberships etc ..

However what I did not know before was how late the WSW & MV packages went out ...

Roar, AU, City , SFC are up considerably compared to a similar time last season ... If we assume the Nix especially after the West Ham match lift their numbers we could be in for a record membership season... lets hope so ..

According to Pignata we hit 6k at close of business. Well on track for 9k+ before the season commences, could go better with a win in the Cup and a quality player signing for even more positivity.

Interesting, though what do you mean by 'HE' issues? :-k

I think, thankfully, we see the context as to why some clubs are down - the likes of WSW releasing their packs a fair bit later and some bureaucratic lag still under-way there. They're not the only ones either. Given the still hot demand for the short-supply there, expect another quick acceleration up by another few thousand, as a few fans have already mooted, above.



That would be extra-ordinary, given where they've come from, but same time, it's actually possible, given the improvement undertaken up there and the dividends that improved process and approach have already paid!

The next update from Roar will obviously reflect how the growth in numbers is still trending. I can't imagine it would increase too much more, given that the 8k is from three months or so of sign ups, but just exceeding 10k (Their target of last season) would be phenomenal in itself. I think 11-12k is realistic and reflects their steady but growing core of support, which has been hovering around 13k the last few seasons. Hopefully their home average bumps up accordingly to mid-late teens this season (Season 2/3 levels)!

Ah thanks for that perthglory#1. Ah yes, the Burswood Stadium - how could I forget! Damn, that's a real shame and as Gyfox discusses follow up, that seems no good. Again, Perth fans short-changed. They always like to 'claim' as part of it's proud Multi-Use capabilities that it can host 'Soccer' matches, but in reality, like Heart Fan suggested, odds are stacked against us anyway, for practical/commercial/strategic reasons, but also if our stadiums still aren't as great for this code as the likes of top-class rectangle venues like Suncorp. That's Perth Stadium's competition for the rectangle code.

Granted, hope still remains...



...that's true, but Perth could still be an option for second-tier kind of Socceroos games, the kind of games we see every few years, like 'Asian Cup Qualifiers' and the like. These are the kinds of games that the likes of Canberra have hosted before. A game every 4-5 years is not a big ask, especially if it's only a lesser name Mid-East side or the likes of Thailand, Vietnam, Singapore, Malaysia or whoever.

The Sydney market in-particular, well arguably suffers from over-saturation to a degree and the 'consumer fatigue' (Drop in Socceroos crowd numbers, relative to peaks years circa Pim era) seems to reflect that? A sharing of the load for lower drawing games and a little more scarcity for Sydney's fans may help bump up the big-drawing fixtures Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne do get to host? :-k

Victory at 9,147.

Yeah i emailed member admin 3 days ago and still have not got the rest of my tickets sorted.

I imagine this is holding up our memberships but we will eventually cap at 16k again no problems.

Until only a half hour ago the only real name we were linked to that i knew of was Ameobi. however after reading the latest quotes made by Arnold, seems as though a few other players have been targeted.

Would have to agree though, none of these players like Janko or Hoarau or Zamora would really sell memberships. i know w'ere focusing on a striker but i would have liked for us to have gone for a player more like a no 10. Cambiasso would have been a good fit. And a very well recognised player amongst football fans.

6327...

I wonder if the email issue has now been addressed. I imagine that would have held up a number of families.

With the names you've been linked to I wouldn't be counting on a marquee bringing in a huge number of members before the season.

WSW now 6297
