Fixed.

BTW, WP have you got your tickets yet?  I got a receipt but no tickets as of yet.  Presume they'll leave it to the last week like always 

I got my Player Club tickets (& 2 more scarves) today. Didn't get a receipt though

I got my tickets and scarf yesterday

Assuming the same rate of increase over the next week would put us at around 19,800 on the 13th Feb.  Last year we had 18,141 on the 13th so we could/should be roughly 1600 in front.  I would assume with the NAB Cup to start in the next week that this could potentially be more than that.  Not a bad effort for a supposedly hopeless team after a crap year and with no prospects for climbing out of the bottom two in 2008.  Or maybe most Richmond supporters can finally see a light at the end of the tunnel and are happy to back the club with their hard-earned.  I pretty confident its the latter.

we r just the most loyal group of supporters in the competition.
can u imagine if teams like buldogs and dees had our lack of success. they would probably cease to exist.

well done, great effort

I fully agree re: the loyalty.  Unfortunately the Bulldogs and Dees have had much longer periods in the wilderness than us and that shows what happens to clubs that can't pull it out.  That's why its so important to get this current effort of ours right.

A win next Friday would do wonders  . Last year we got flogged by Geelong (a sign of things to come  ) and we still reached 30k.

If we win next Friday, I will buy another membership!

Kangas and Dons I know are ticketed and non-ticketed combined and the airy fairy reply from the Hawks membership co-ordinator suggests theirs is too . . . .

Was that reply a woof, meow or chirp like that from a number of the Hawks "members" .

Is it just me or does that look bad?

But not unexpected. We still draw some of the biggest crowds so I still believe there is hope. We have to start winning, I believe this rebuilding phase is very important for us, stuff this one up and we are going to see some permanent damage.
