Membership "Non-Renewals" ? !!

Post: # 886154Post Eastern »

Does anyone know how many 2009 members there are that HAVEN'T YET signed on for 2010?

My reason for asking is that I am still seeing more cars around with 2009 member stickers than I am seeing with 2010 member stickers. There can only be two reasons for this;

1. These are the late renewers who will renew between now and the start of the season, giving the membership numbers and club coffers a boost (I hope this IS the case)

2. Circumstances have prevented them from renewing (Good luck to those people)

There is possibly a third reason, but I don't want to think about it. That is that some people have fallen out of love with the club (I hope this is extremely minimal)

All this when we are at record numbers for this time of year? Confusing :?

!!


NEW scarf signature (hopefully with correct spelling) will be here as soon as it arrives !!

I am a slacker and haven't put my sticker on yet either.

I even cleaned my car so the sticker wouldn't go over dirt and then it rained....might be a job for me to do this arvo.

That is what's so exciting about our total now, there is always a late charge as Round 1 approaches.

There's a 4th - people don't like to put stickers on their car. I only have the lil number plate one on from a few years, might upgrade that one though if I stop doing reason 3 and being slack!

Maybe another reason. I still haven't got my membership pack.
Very slack and not the first time the contractors have been painfully slow.
Very disappointing.

I have put mine on straight away, but don't like it nearly as much as last years. Its very plain. I thought it would have at least have the "This is Saints Footy" slogan somewhere on it. I liked the look of last years one much better and was a bit sad taking it off. Having said that, I pinched my son's of this years and have put in up on the little wall with photos on my desk cubicle.

Haven't put mine on this year and it's actually gonna look pretty sad next to the previous two years stickers. Gotta say I was pretty disappointed with this years sticker. VERY AVERAGE.

Not that keen to put my sticker on the car now that I'm living in Geelong.

It's still in good condition and I'd like to keep it that way - the car that is :D

I have reservations about putting a sticker on my car. Last time I had a sticker on the back window someone threw an object at my car and smashed the window and damaged the roof :evil:

Chicken! :lol: :wink:
We need to stand up and be counted down here!
I display my sticker (and love for the Saints generally) proudly. Nothing's happened to the car or house so far! (touch wood!)

I'm a collector so I have never put a sticker on my car. I don't use the lanyard for my membership. I try to keep all my Saints stuff in mint condition.
