I'd like to see the mods change a certain poster's name to 'ManWithHawksMembership' when they hit 40k members.

The last time I looked we lived in a democracy, where freedom of speech is allowed!!! I thought that the magpies had the worst supporters, but yours leave them for dead!!

LOL. 10k?
We're on track to get 32k this year, demonstrating that as we've always said, the number of sympathy memberships was relatively small - 2 to 3k - and that our decision to stay in Melbourne saw us reclaim a huge section of our lost support.
Well done to the Hawks, but let's not forget you are achieving these numbers well over a decade since your near death experience. We've had one year.

I was unaware they had 40k members this year. Had I known I may have set my target at 45k. But the work is done now, so once they hit 40000 I'll be member #40001.

I think a large chunk of our Gold members have signed up early as it guarentee's a GF ticket if we make it. It was sold out and 2008 members had to renew before the end of Nov i think?
What does "Fortius Quo Fidelius" translate to? I really want to say "In mediocraty we trust".....bit that would be nasty!
Fair enough.
The figures I looked at were at the June 30 cutoff so it's conceivable that quite a few bought them after this date. I doubt they would have sold 5,000 in this period though. Were your supporters buying memberships after this date aware that it didn't entitle them to finals tickets?
Fortius Quo Fidelius?
Latin for 1 premiership, 27 wooden spoons and no bandwagoners.
Strength through Loyalty for short.
Something which is very applicable for the people who support our football club year in year out.
Interestingly it's what Collingwood recruit Dayne Beams has tattooed on his chest.
Must be a shortage of frangers for dogs and cats to the east of bourke road!!!!

28k in '06, 50k in '08. Now that is a ****ing enormous bandwagon
Pretty rich coming from a whore club with a foot in two States. Let's not forget the 6 year waiting list for WCE memberships after coming 15th.
Enjoy the ride on your bandwagon

Jump on, you're all welcome.
How many of these early memberships are auto renewals? Some clubs have 'em, some don't. That's a major reason for the discrepancy between some of the clubs and North, who for some reason either don't have that option or few people took it up.
Hawthorn's bandwagon is sure to slow up after Christmas I'd think.

numbers mean shit, it's the amount of money made that counts.
hawthorn right now with its prospects of success will probably sell every gold membership by mid-january if they aren't all gone already. that's the big thing, 7500 gold memberships at top dollar - the sort of thing a club with bottom 4 prospects can't hope to achieve. make the most of it while we're up.

No auto renewal system this season.
Bandwagon or not they are rank and file members. I'm sure you'd be over the moon if your club was at a similar number before xmas.
Whether you like it or not. The fact is Hawthorn has an exciting team, just won the premiership, looks like a top 4 contender this season posted a 4 million dollar profit, and had a record number of memberships BEFORE THE GRAND FINAL WAS PLAYED!
Whether this pre-christmas membership boom is a result of bandwagon supporters or not, their money is vital to the ongoing success of the club, and if Hawthorn start drawing consistent crowds like the Pies and Dons then people may start to recognise the huge steps hawthorn has taken in the last 12 years.
Credit where it's due guys!
Gold and Kennedy (our two premium groups) were sold out last year, and didn't even make it to renewal time this year. They had to extend our allocation due to demand, and still not enough.
Many people are upgrading to Silver despite no upgraded seating available - essentially to get a better shot at the GF.

Actually it's called getting the youth market.
When the kids get jobs and hit 16,17, 18 and can afford to buy memberships.
