I thought Uncle Sam had joined Silvertails when I read the title Bozo. :wait:

Do love your enthusiasm and you can count me in Champ ! :happy:
 
I just can't fathom why, when we have experienced so many great years and so few lean ones, that we struggle to crack 10,000 members.

If the Squeels can have a membership base of 25K +, how many should a great club like ours have ? Even considering the decrepit state of our facilities.

Uncle Sam is not Calling but our Great owner Uncle Penn is

He is calling to all who have ears that hear

He is calling to all who have eyes that see

He is calling to all those that have a heart of passion that feel the Great Manly spirit

And the Great Manly Sprit that bears fruit and enriches our legendary club are all the Great loyal and passionate club members like your good self feathered friend @maxta

The 30K Eels club members have endured decades of humiliation . A record 14 wooden spoons
1947, 1952, 1954, 1956, 1957, 1958, 1959, 1960, 1961, 1970, 1972, 2012, 2013, 2018

Their blue and gold club colours have been lowered to the bottom of the competition table and their club disgraced 14 times .

The eels have not won a comp for the 36 years

Some of you talk about facilities ?
Which one of you Manly People would swap our proud and untarnished History and jump ship and sit in one of the wooden spoon infested seats at Parramatta stadium ?

It is indeed hard to fathom why all those suffering and humiliated eels supporters lead the NRL
in club membership

But the fact is Passion does make all things possible and it is a tribute to all the long suffering eels fans for leading the NRL club membership and it is a quality that us Manly people that should aspire

I get the $75 pack every year on auto renew. Only manage to get to a game on the Gold Coast (and what a game it was last year), but that doesn’t matter, the membership does. It always worries me that we become ripe for the picking if teams are culled from Sydney due to our poor membership figures.

Myself and my 2 year old son are members each year.

Wishing you and your extended Sea eagle family a safe , healthy , happy and prosperous 2022 feathered friend .
 
One of the world's great wonders... 196k on facebook and struggle to get 5% converted to members
The 5% passionate Manly souls and club members like your good self @Frogz

Are the Hope and Inspiration of the next Manly Generation of supporters

This is a great and true quote by Anne Wojcicki that represents the 5 % Passionate ones

THE REALITY IS THAT THE ONLY WAY CHANGE COMES IS WHEN YOU LEAD BY EXAMPLE

Based on membership numbers and sports as business, Manly leaves itself open to be relocated to a demographic substantial enough to care (or dissolved completely). It's hard for those who do care that we stay based where we are, but more and more irrelevant as professional sport grows beyond city tribalism of past. It's unfortunate that we do not have a local narrative compelling enough to draw compelling numbers of supporters, but then again, physical bums on seats is perhaps less relevant in this era. We just have to hope that the old narrative around "hated silvertails" is enough to continue appealing to TV audiences moving forward and/or we continue producing freakish players and entertaining play. The NRL's inability to be truly professional also helps our cause.

Being the only N R L franchise on the Sydney northern region and the assured club allocation of funds should enable or ensure a long term Manly presence on the northern beaches but obviously also can not underestimate the importance of a respectable club membership level . The Black Town link and junior pathways systems with a significant western Sydney connection can only help matters if continued and much improved home ground facilities and features should or will definitely be a benefit as well . Unless the Bears are very , very unlikely to be resurrected with a part base in the north Sydney area , can "t see why Manly will have any issues being or having an indefinite presence where they are currently based .
