RAIDERS ARMY 2005

[thickos]

woodgers that sounds great - I would definitely be in for that (of course it is a fair while down the track so I can't guarantee it).

The better half and myself vary in our ability to get down to Canberra for games - I got down to 7 this season while the li'l lady got down for 3 or 4. I would be keen to sit with the army when we are down there - however she feels the cold considerably so seating is a primary concern for us.

No matter where we get tickets I will wander around and say hi. 8)

P.S. I am shocked. On my list for 2005 season tickets, I see no stallwarts like Jed, Thickos + Missus, even 69! For shame.

I'll definitely be sitting with you all next season, I'm just not sure at this stage whether my season ticket for 2004 was renewed for '05.

If you can't drive book the Murrays Internet tickets in advance, they're only $10 each way, or something ridiculous like that. Plus you can stay in Civic for under $30 a night.

Hopefully the cold won't be as big an issue as in the past. The Marketing have requested Sunday games rather than Saturday night. Research has shown that even our season ticket holders stay away from some of those 7:30pm games due to the fact it is Iceland at Bruce during that time in Winter. It also makes it difficult for our supporters from the Riverina and South Coast to make the trek if they so desire so hopefully the draw will be kind and the crowds accomodated a little more.

I will also need to find out if season ticket holders get the $8 away tickets in 05. If they do, DJ Raida and 69 you guys would be crazy not to buy a season ticket because you will save yourself money on Sydney games alone. You could also then have bragging rights to your mates that you are a season ticket holder and member of your club

O.K hombres.

I have said it before and i'll say it again - PLEASE HOLD OFF BUYING YOUR SEASON TICKET! Jason is going to get back to us on a few issues in regards to our ticketing for the coming season. I will pass them on ASAP but rest assured that we are sorting through a few things that have an effect on the coming year.

Just out of interest, we came up with an idea to raise a few more numbers before the start of the year by having a 'Raiders Army' function possibly at HQ (end of January). The club is looking to get as many people there as possible to help get our numbers up, there is even talk that it may be given some air time on 104.7. Just out of interest, who would be willing to attend this event? The club could organise players to mingle and for signings, possibly even a game of touch vs the players as well. It would be a BBQ lunch also. This has a chance to go ahead and make us bigger in numbers BUT we will need GUARENTEED numbers. If the club were to organise something and they got 20 people to rock up, it would make our marketing look terrible and never consider helping us organise an event again. I would also like to see the SGB representation, possibly bring a few banners etc.

Who would be keen and also does anyone have any other ideas for entertainment at the event?

P.S. I am shocked. On my list for 2005 season tickets, I see no stallwarts like Jed, Thickos + Missus, even 69! For shame.

I got my usual ticket in the Mal Stand, so I guess this rules me out!

Since I came back from living overseas for a few years in 1995, I have never missed a home game. No matter how cold. I even went to Manuka Oval when we got transferred away!

Come on mate, Manuka is across town. What about us poor Sydney-siders who do the 600 km round trip!

I acutally love the cold Sat night games... we might as well exploit that advantage. Love the beanies, gloves, scarves, the cold night air and singing yourself hoarse.

Then again it is about bums on seats so maybe in those middle season rounds, Sunday should be the go. But until May, keep the night games.
