Good afternoon,
Please don't ask for membership refunds.
This message isn't written lightly, I have gone back and forth on whether to write it or not. Our footy club membership is a service, the club cannot adhere to this service and understandably people have lost jobs and need to priority cuts to their family budget. That may change May 31st, but until then...
Please make the Richmond Football Club a priority.
With all sensitivity and complete understanding, I plead to any richmond supporter who reads this to keep paying their membership, even make the bold decision to sign up if you haven't.
It's ridiculous that I'm writing this, everyone is entitled to make their own decision for their family and I am crossing a line. For that I'm really sorry.
Why am I writing this? We have all lived through the shambles of the past as a Richmond supporter , finally in the midst of our glory, the world decides to stop, let's buck the trend and go against the grain of that trend. Let's keep our club that's been built since 2010, let's keep it unscathed, let's give it that chance to continue to blossom and grow. Let's redefine the odds and expectations on what should and shouldn't be happening now according to the experts, let's show them the power of this tiger army by sticking with our club right now and making it a priority.
This is an uncertain and scary time, but remember and reminisce on yourself in 2010. Yes you! You wanted Richmond to stop being the joke, you wanted to go into work on the Monday and talk footy without being laughed at, you've got that. LETS KEEP IT. Let's say thank you for 2017,2019 and any point from 2010 onwards where we've seen the growth. Let's remember where we came from, so we can continue to walk the glorious path we are on.
Lots of clubs will struggle, but no club will hurt as much as ours if we pull out. We have the most members, we get the most attendances, we are probably making the most revenue from them. We have minimal pokie machine revenue to fall back on when they open again. Our club needs us.
Regards,
A Richmond member who paid his monthly tiger payment three ago and will continue to.
Gotiges!!
