i would have thought that it would be a good idea to get a major sponsor on board,and get the jumpers and other merchandise out in the shops to cash in on Xmas.that would bring in some revenue.But,thats just me,I'd like to make at least a few $$$ if I was running a footy club.
Ok - I'll put it another way

Thoughts?
Since you asked, this seems evidence of identifying yourself with Manly and having a negative attribution style.Â
Must be painful.Â
Perhaps a carry-over from past negative experiences deeply burned into your psyche. Like, maybe, being a Norths supporter in a past life.Â

Shouldn't you be directing your comments at the media manager?
Seriously do we need another thread on this topic?
Do we need more negative comments ripping into the club it's admin and the ceo?

No Ryan, the paper suggested the New Year, you are the one suggesting next season
I can see your very,very,very long point jonesy.But,it's the information part of it that gets most people (or lack of it).If you run a business that relies on the public,you have to keep them informed,or they lose interest,and go somewhere else,or look for something else to do.That's why your junk mail has the harvey norman catalogue coming out the same time as the good guys,jb hifi,retra vision,etc,and why the coles and woolworths catalogues are never far away from each other.They don't want your mind wandering away from them.Also,they have them hand delivered to you (or e-mailed in some cases) so their info is readily accessible.
i don't know if it's just me,but I seem to get plenty of advertising from Manly to buy things,join memberships,memorabilia online auctions,etc,but I'd rather know more about where the club's actually going,what we are trying to achieve,who our sponsors and signings are.

It Also annoys me, but bitching about it on here constantly isn't going to change anything.
Talk to the club, it's their club they cna run it how they like perhaps if more people spent less time whining on here whilst laying the boot in and talking to them instead they may change their tune?

From "ask Lowie"
How’s the sponsor search going for next year? Do we have anybody in the pipeline just yet?
John, Brisbane
Thanks for your interest John. We’re still looking and we are having some very encouraging talks with a number of organisations who are very interested. However keeping in mind this isn’t something that can happen over night, but it will happen
Who have the club recruited apart from Tim Robinson and Daniel Harrison?
Shane via Facebook
Hi Shane,
I show the same confidence that Des has in our squad and we must keep in mind that Brett Stewart and David Williams will provide an injection into our playing squad.
Why has Manly not been proactive in the player market?
Glen – Sea Eagles member
To tell you the truth Glen, this really is left to Des and the Football Department. We employ Des with the utmost faith to deliver us a great side every year and with six consecutive finals appearances he’s doing a fantastic job

If you are not happy with the "Ask Lowie" section or you feel that it is not giving you the info you want then email the club or him directly - I did.
I agree with Jonesy, moaning on here so that others agree with you is not the way to communicate your thoughts to the club?
Baz, As a member you have paid your money and deserve a say in your club so get in contact with them?

As with a lot of pointless topics I stay out of them normally. But have to agree with Jonesy and Vid. People are just going on and on
There needs to prehaps by an age limit of the fans that can post on here. I know a 3 year old that complains less that half of some people that post.
Let the GREAT backroom staff at the club run it and support what they do. In terms of Value for money isn't going to the games value for money.
I sometimes wonder if people would still not be happy if Dessie Lowy and co personally went to their house and told them all the ins and outs of the club themselves.
Read the net, read the paper( the daily is online for those like me that don't live on the beaches so no excuses there).
Apart from what the players had for breakfast last Monday and what colour undies they wear I think we get enough info.
Anyway thats my rant,
GO MANLY, I'm off now to my garden shed to cool off.

Baz, not sure if we have met BUT (and yes a big BUT) my thoughts are that if you are committed enough to front up with your cash and support your team then you are quite within your right to speak to the person who is in charge and ask "please explain?"
From experience most in the club are open, approachable and feel accountable to the members and will answer direct questions from them.
Posts on public forums are not the way to approach the management or executive of an NRL team?
If need be private message me with your contact details and I'll pass on and try to see that you get an answer?
