Essendon* don't have 41,947 ticketed members. :?



I prefer to wait for the official AFL audits instead of a Collingwood article...

Not doubting the integrity of either of these two - but both DUC and OR quoted (I think from the membership department) membership figures over 40k.

Why the discreptancies between these amounts, and the final amount given from the AFL.

Sure there can be errors, but if people all over the country can count up ballots on election day with accuracy - surely the club (with months up it's sleeve) could produced a moderately accurate figure... :?:

The figure listed for Carlton is incorrect.

We have exceeded 40,000. This is a Collingwood press release only and it wouldn't surprise me if Eddie is grandstanding for his constituents/sychophants.

or we deliberately told collingwood we had less than 40k and want to shock them when we announce we have broken the record. :)










...until proven otherwise i'm allowed to hope this is the case.

We actually organized a special presentation for the 40,000th member which got a lot of media coverage, so something has gone FUBAR. :?

Best wishes to the filth. They are good at winning things that don't really matter :wink:

Most of their memberships are probably purchased with false or stolen concession cards.

The Australian mentions our membership figure in an article with Swann as being at 40,764.

Carlton, along with their record membership of 40,764,

That was stated in a recent Fox Sports News article about the Carlton v Shit kilda game and how we could net an additional 350k from the game from attendances.

Things are looking brilliant

And to that collingwood filth that thought we hadnt cracked 40k, well we did and when we win out 17th well crack 50k.

@#$%&! THE WOBBLES, SHIT CLUB NO HISTORY

go blueboys
