I don't see any negatives so far.
Talk is right. Media is right. Prices are right. Re-signing existing players early. Farewelled Elrich well. Started signing new players early. Connecting with fans well.
Now we just need a good season on the park.

The membership deals are awesome!!! The youth membership is a really good incentive and I can see a good membership base next season. Very happy to see the new owners take this direction.

The next test: replace Garuccio/Absalonsen.
Pass mark: sign Goodwin.

At least you know with the new guys, it'll be a purely financial decision if guys choose to go elsewhere, or in Tareks case a chance to finish at home.

They sound like they want to attract these guys back, but do they have the cash to do so.

New memberships look fantastic!

Im excited to see how they may encourage active support in the north end.

It will also be interesting to see how they will do this yet deal with a big influx of families in particular young children.

That being said most sensible people understand football culture and seat their young family in a different grandstand if the passionate support from the north is an issue.

Early days, but I don't think we will see an upswing in crowds purely based on ticket price. The club has a fair bit of ground to make up due to the inadequacies of the past few years.

This is a fantastic start though.

Club email... shots fired!
Adelaide United can reveal it has now sold 1,000 memberships in the first four days of sale, whilst it took the Club three-and-a-half weeks to reach the same feat 12 months earlier.

Goodwin is a replacement for Absalonsen imo.

The biggest issue for the club who is getting a no10 who is good enough for a championship winning team.

We can reveal we have now sold 1,000 memberships in the first four days of sale, whilst it took the Club three-and-a-half weeks to reach the same feat 12 months earlier.

The impressive numbers coincide with the growing anticipation ahead of the upcoming Hyundai A-League and Westfield W-League seasons and, of course, the revitalised packages currently available.
Adelaide United Chairman, Piet van der Pol, said the eagerness of Reds fans to join was very encouraging so early in the membership period.

“Looking at the figures, there are a lot of positive signs for us all,” van der Pol said. “To see the increases in supporters wanting to be part of what we’re trying to create at Adelaide United is very encouraging.
“But it must be said that we’re looking at figures after four days compared to figures after three weeks last season – this is a phenomenal improvement and we should be proud of this.

“We have said it before that we are eager to give back to the South Australian football community and football should be something that everyone can enjoy, which is why we have implemented more affordable membership options that are already resonating with our fans.

“I’m confident that we will see this continue and the strong support for our men’s and women’s teams will improve attendances on match days, something that undoubtedly helps our players get positive results for the Club.”

my auto renewal stuffed up but i just got my interstate membership sorted plus added my son daughter and wife. So thats atleast 1004 now.
This interstate membership is only $15 more than last seasons non ticketed supporter membership and we get two tickets to away games in our state. As there is only ome game up here next season we can swap one of the tickets to a home game for when we visit. Awesome deal. Its basically $50-
$60 worth of tickets plus all the member benefits and kit for $95.

Just realised we had the second worst membership numbers last season only beating wellington. Even ccm had more. Yikes. Really need a strong bounce back this season. 6906 is quite bad.

We are well on the way, but another signing would be nice to pump things up a bit.

Preferably a decent Aussie signing.

Memberships have surged over 3000. Almost half way to last seasons total already. Hopefully a good ffa cup run will generate more membership sales
