Interested to know what they have planned for foundation members.

I’d be very disappointed if something is not planned. Twenty consecutive years as members should be celebrated.

Anyone who kept buying memberships during the dark days should be celebrated 🤣🤣🤣

Not holding my breath.
Maybe the opportunity to get fleeced with some over priced tat that is delivered late.

 

[sydmariner]

Are Auckland FC the real deal or will the novelty wear off after 1 season?.

definitely a bandwagon team . i guess their fans will stay until the fickle billionaire, that owns them.
gets sick of paying an 8 figure salary for his team .

[Ben10]

Thanks guys! On Unite Round, I would be keen on a two day event, boys play on the Saturday followed by the girls on Sunday. Maybe at different venues each day. Football from 10am to 10pm kind of thing

 

[Spacks]

Need Matt Simon on for a transfer deadline day pod!

Would need to be in cooler time of year. Say March/April just before the finals or start of season but if they persist that’s the way to do it. At least 3 games min. A day at the same place.

Could split it into NZ and Aus

Have the NZ kick offs first due to time zone’s so they are still playing at say 2pm 4pm
Then we do 4 6 8pm

Unite round would hopefully be 7 games for ALM if it runs again. I like the idea of bunching up the games even more though.

 

[Ancient Mariner]

Forget unite rounds and all other gimmicks and just play well promoted home and away games and manage the competition competently.

Can we get to 10,000 members in the next 10 years? As it stands no. We have a low population and a low population density across a large area.

If the ALM ended up at 16 teams and the Gosford CBD population increased with young people with all the apartments going up I think we can. But we also need to be competitive year in year out.

Dan and Ian both did a great job with memberships but 2 great years soon after 5 dismal years it has not been enough.

I think improving the stadium would help.

Agreed. Crumbling NRL ground. No roof, no decent food and bev outlets.
Roof is a pre requisite

There's no real incentive to spend money on it though.

It sells out 2 NRL fixtures and a couple of finals (maybe) in a year. Why would you upgrade a venue that sits idle most of the year?

Comm bank has 3 NRL teams using it for home games plus they have concerts and events like nitro circus. Plus wanderers get more people than we do.

Same with Allianz.
Sydney crowds are better than ours plus they have roosters and Waratahs. Wests and Souths are playing games there and there is a wallabies test at the end of the year. Plus they have other concerts and events. And the Socceroos are there in March.

Should be 10k now, coasties just don’t suppprt their team. I don’t live on the coast and I don’t understand it. No matter what happens it will not change, if the last two seasons couldn’t get them off the lounge nothing will. Such a shame.
