Stig haven't you rung the club and been happy with what they have done for you with your membership for your particular circumstance?
Yes I don’t have a problem
And the conversation was an interesting one to say the least
I feel sorry for many who are having there accounts debited but that’s there business . Club should have been on the front foot as Tigers Of Old stated previous that they should give every member the option and they haven’t .
I said that“ can you put on hold the memberships until this is sorted out “ , they reply not a problem what so ever
So why not offer this to all members ?
my local gym 24 hours before they closed sent an email out saying that seeing you cannot use the gym after tomorrow, we have suspended all direct debits/ memberships as of today . Easy
Problem I have is that the season won’t get off the ground and if it does , you won’t be able to attend anyway
Happy to pay 5 months to date x 4 3122 but not happy to pay the other 6 payments when we won’t be able to go
I think that’s fair and reasonable
Especially when Away Games are all being refunded by Ticketek and Ticketmaster
If we stop paying deductions for 3121 membership this year are we still able to rollover into 3121 if and when the 2021 season goes ahead, or will we have to go back on to a waiting list for 3121 membership in the 2021 season?
Once things become clearer , they will give you the option to continue , or not
VFL Park?
Although they screwed that up when they chose a location beyond the end of the Earth, and far away from any heavy rail.

Interesting spat between Tony Jones and Eddie on channel 9 tonight
It actually got out of hand with Eddie refusing to answer a simple question and screaming back at Tony
This is a real hot topic
I don't like Tony Jones but thought he asked a reasonable question, which McGuire refused to answer directly. On the other hand McGuire's trying to look after his club and doesn't want to open the floodgates. Apparently Collingwood has retained all staff at two days per week... maybe they can look at that if the hard-up want their membership money back. People have different levels of allegiance.

Thought it was nothing more the a publicity stunt for Ed footyshow.
Huge lunches for the
If Mcguire said " yes Tony we are prepared to return money paid on memberships"
The phones at westpac holden Lexus centre would be ringing non stop for a week.
Thats why he dodged answering the question.
Certain Collingwood memberships are in the $1000's,
Collingwood couldn't afford people complaining they want there money back.
It's *smile* when he said Collingwood would go bust.
17 other clubs would grumble before Collingwood.
No matter who you are, where you are , you are going to get hit in the pocket except those who aint got anything in their pocket. Now if you bought 2020 AFL Club memberships you have the AUD's in your pocket. You invested those AUD's as you considered it was a benefit but now it ain't. Do you write it off or recoup the AUD's ,as what you purchased is not being delivered. My opinion your 2020 AFL Membership is the same as having a wager on a nag at Flemington or buying script on the Stock Market which do not return you a dividend. No one seen the writing on the wall but it is on the wall so count your losses with dignity , like I am
I know this situation puts them in a perilous state, I was saying that until this, the League has been well-run from a business point-of-view. As I said a couple of weeks ago, the league knows it can borrow when it has to, underwritten by the state at low interest.
My gripe right now is people on this forum tasking shots at the AFL for doing things that would be considered good strategy by people who actually know how to run a business. Everyone's an expert in hindsight, but if most of the punters who are complaining on this forum were in charge, the AFL would still be in the dark ages, like the NRL.
