Look out, I am heading down from the stands ...

I have been a season ticket holder since day one - I love my seats, I love knowing I help contribute to the club's bottom line and I love the view! All that aside, next season, I will be trading in my membership and joining The Marinators.

As I have done each and every game, before the game on Saturday night I looked over the ground and was really disappointed in the crowd. Yeah, the weather contributed, though to my left I saw you guys (The Marinators) braving it out in the weather and I just said, "I have to get in to this - that is what it's all about!" 

I will be getting my Marinator's membership tomorrow (I haven't been able to get in to the CCLC!) and I look forward to joining you lot each and every game day next season ... even better ... I will be dragging on a few mates and even the better half!

Thanks again for your efforts this season, I look forward to being able to get amongst it next season as we look to defend The Premiership!

You can still be a season ticket holder with general admission; just go for the white membership rather than gold.

Is it too late for the back of bay 15 to put in a counter offer that may (or may not) involve beer??

Excuse my ignorance here, aren't we one and all the same in this area?

(I am guessing I will learn something here lol)

 

[Jeff (LouMacari)]

yes we are. Some who started in bay 16 have 'migrated' to 15 and 17 etc to try and spread the love!  But we're all Marinators

 

[fish]

adz,sacko and bakery are in that mix so I prefer deported verhead: verhead: verhead:

Ahh ... thought as much.

I will sit/stand wherever I can lol

 

[dibo]

15 in particular is growing well, and there's even a few nutters over at the back of bay 18 as well i think, utilising the 'standing area'

 

[tyson]

the guys in the standing area behind 18 have been there since like, V2. they used to be in bay 16 but all moved there... its a mixture of wyoming and gosford first graders and their mates.

aussiecross, they dont say 'gee, that looks like fun'... they stuff more along the lines of 'gee... the mariners arent too loud tonight. maybe they should try harder'

welcome mate. just remember that you dont have to sign up for anything to stand in the area and sing... the marinators club is for benefits such as discounts on the bus trips etc. id rather someone else explain it more thoroughly though.

As well as not having to sign up for anything (although that support helps us all), you also don't have to be in the northern Bays to be a Marinator - for those able to -  great more the better - (whether in there for tifo or more a 'casual'), but you can just wear yellow and sing/chant right where you are!

....and don't forget that by joining the Marinators Club, you are not only financially helping the cause, but also receiving some very real and hearty benefits yourself! Benefits too numerous to mention in this thread....well hang on, let me give it a try...

• Discounts on away travel (usually at least $5 on bus to newcastle)
• Discounts on Marinators Scarves... and there's sure to be another one coming out for next season *cough*premiers..*cough)( min $5 there)
• Discounts on the new up coming Marinators Merchandise (read 'Premiers' t shirts etc - min $5 there)
• Discounts on major Marinators events - Free entry to a major 'night of nights' coming up - plus Winery tour - plus Golf Day etc ..min $10 off that kind of stuff
• DOUBLE the amount of raffle tickets that non members receive for the corp box raffle each home game
• Input into the Marinators 'Man of the Match' voting (sponsored by Words & Pictures)
• Access to the Marinators Club section of this website
• Rebel sports reward card (giving 5% discount off purchase and also an additional 5% back to the Marinators Club
• And last but not least, the most important of all and well worth the measly $20 joining fee on it's own.... a little letter 'M' printed on your Leagues Club card to denote that you have joined!

Well.....whadya know, I did it!

*end of blatant plug* ...(more coming!  ;D)

 

[CCM-JAM80]

Thanks guys, I appreciate your input.

As for where I will be sitting next season, I want to be able to get amongst it - there is a feeling of "missing out" to an extent and I want to be part of the experience. I am looking forward to it, I  am sure I will get to meet a few of you before hand so I am the "who the hell is that?" lol

 

[kevrenor]

Like I said .. you don't have to do anything!  :ashamed:

BUT - join the Mariners Club - help yourself and the club
AND - join the Marinators Club - help yourself, your fellow fans, and the club

Great plug Jeff!
