Collingwood's Christmas Message 2012

To the Magpie Army,

On behalf of the Board, staff, coaches and players, I'd like to thank you for your support in 2012. I hope you feel that the Collingwood Football Club is in one of the most exciting phases of its long and proud history both on and off the field.

We would like to thank all our members who helped us achieve an all-time AFL membership record of 73,506 in 2012. The Magpie Army is clearly excited about the team's chances next year with over 50,000 members already signed up for 2013.

The club will continue to push the boundaries of innovation and supporter services to ensure it remains the biggest and best sporting club in Australia.

Please have a look at this video which explains some of the exciting new communication initiatives which will be rolled out next year to ensure that you remain in touch with your club at levels never experienced before. The club will continue to explore all channels using traditional and new media supported by new technologies including our own broadcast studios.

We wish you a happy and safe Christmas and look forward to seeing you as part of the Magpie Army in 2013.

Go Pies!

Gary Pert
