An update on the increased cost of modern living

Just in case you have not received the email update from the club, please note the pricing arrangements for tomorrow's finals game against Bentleigh.

Members will not receive free entry to the game.

Paid up social club members, life members and parents of players will be charged $10.

Ordinary season ticket holders and members of the general public will be charged $20 ($15 concession).

South Melbourne players, coaches and under 18 members, and children under 12 years of age, get in for free.

And now for the obligatory musing... this is not a good look. That the club has not spread this on its social media accounts suggests to me that they also think it is not a good look. Either that, or our social media presence is not what it once was, for reasons which I am vaguely aware of but am waiting to see how they play out in the longer term.

Considering that memberships and season tickets were supposed to grant entry to all home controlled NPL matches at Lakeside - and I assume this is a home controlled match, as was the case in the last couple of finals series - I figure there may be some surprised and upset people tomorrow night.

Oh, well. It's a good thing I've got a media pass.

A few notes on comments.

We've had a lot of fun over the years with my freewheeling comments policy, but all good things must come to an end. Therefore I will no longer be approving comments that contain personal abuse of any sort.

Still, if your post doesn't get approved straight away, it's probably because I haven't seen it yet.

As usual, publication of a comment does not mean endorsement of its content.
