U tell the bitch u wanna sit at the goals so she puts u on the wing. U tell her u want bottom level so she charges u extra for it and u r up the opposite end u told her u wanted and stuck up in fourth!!!!

yeah well social club is good coz of that but i think only Essendon and Melbourne would want that because with Collingwood i dont think getting a grand final ticket is on the top of our list at the moment. Plus if they shock the hell outta us and do actually make it then half the fun is doing crazy things and sleeping out to line up for a ticket during grand final week anyway!
Guaranteed one my ass Mags jeez and u were criticising Gyro for being a corporate bitch!

Those money hungry bastards! They obviously think that we are only real supporters if we have money and willing to give it to them.
What sense does it make to get a season ticket!
14.50 x 18= 261 bucks
membership 225 bucks
The extra two games they have included are just to disguise the grab for more money.
(last year)adult 16 $170 adult 11 $115
They want an extra $55 for two more games! They're dreaming.
I may just pay as I go.

what bullshit! if essendon had their prices like that well fair enough because im sure their supporters enjoy the footy seeing as they always win where as us, well!! why should we pay so much. oh and they say that they have only gone up for GST well if it WAS $90 wouldnt GST be $9??? (not too sure but thats what i think) therefore it would be $99 not $100 yeah its only one dollar but if 10,000 people bought one..... bloody hell they are ripping us off something shocking!!!!

CAVEAT EMPTOR!!!
Methinks the Club has taken a few liberties with the truth when it promises that mere Social Club members (i.e. those without the Legends or Captain's package) are guaranteed a Grand Final ticket if we make the Grand Final.
How many Social Club members do we have? By my reckoning it must be well over 8,000 by now.
How many Grand Final tickets will we get if we make the Grand Final? Well, that depends on who we're playing. If, for example, Collingwood played Adelaide in the Grand Final, the Crows would get a lot more tickets than us. We might only wind up with, say, 7,000 tickets.
Now, if we've got 7,000 tickets to split between 8,000 members ... well, you work it out.
They haven't actually said whether the Legends and Captain's members are going to get priority over the rest of the Social Club members, but it would seem logical. Either way, the Club is lying through its teeth if it is claiming that ALL Social Club members are GUARANTEED a Grand Final ticket if we make the Grand Final.
I suppose they're just working on the theory that we won't make the Grand Final anyway ... so it won't matter.
But there is a strong principle at stake here. They are offering something that they simply can't guarantee. Therefore they are a lying pack of swine.
Hey, but what's new?
Oh, yes. By the way.
Andrea, for God's sake take up the M.C.C. membership. Don't let some crazy notion of loyalty to the Club stop you from taking up the most sought after membership in Australian sport.
Remember this, Andrea. The Collingwood Football Club does not give a rat's arse about you ... or any other Collingwood supporter for that matter.
You're very fortunate to have been put on the waiting list as a baby. Make the most of it.
Collingwood is simply pricing itself out of the sporting market.
And Magpie Greg, that old argument about giving up the smokes and the drinks so you can afford your Collingwood membership doesn't make a lot of sense to people who don't smoke or drink. Maybe we should give up eating and paying rent too!!!
As for me ... I'm downgrading my membership from Legends to Captain's for 2001. They haven't quite lost me yet. But they're getting close.
