A great effort considering all that has gone on this year.

Dyldam Parramatta Eels Membership sales have officially closed for the 2015 season, with the club reaching a record 22,824 Members!

The milestone marks the third consecutive year the Blue and Gold has hit a new Membership record, following previous totals of 20,312 in 2014 and 17,205 in the 2013 season.

In 2015, as the Blue and Gold Army grew, the Eels also introduced the Member Council, asking engaged and passionate Members to submit their names and commit to regular meetings and discussions with the Membership team about their experiences as fans and Members.

The Blue and Gold Soul loyalty program was also introduced, and Members can expect to be contacted through the year and in future to confirm their tenure and to receive their loyalty patches.

Each year the Eels offer both ticketed and non-ticketed Membership options, saving you money for each game you attend, offering Member discounts on tickets and merchandise, as well as exclusive Member functions and new updates.

"I think Braith respects Ryles as a coach and what he's doing at Parra and obviously believes Lomax did the wrong thing, listened to poor advice and brought this all upon himself and did the wrong thing to Parra"

"I'm putting last year down to the new style of attack and defence that had been implemented, as well as relying on Volkman at half. It was a disatorous 1st half without doubt, but I can't see that happening again. We should be much better prepared…"

Just goes to show how passionate and loyal the PARRA fans are that even when it hits the fan, we still come and show our support.

Well done to all the loyal fans that support the club through membership, if you dont, have a think about becomming a member next year, even though we are shit atm its still a proud feeling to be a member of the club, and the members are the owners of club, get on board.

  Sorry to sound naive but how are members calculated

no club should ever be away from their home ground for more than a month. it's been like 9 weeks.

Very questionable figures considering the amount of fans that i see actually turning up to home games and the fact that our front office stinks of bin juice.

  Blue and Gold Army membership is non ticketed - for people who can't make it to games, but want to be a paid supporter.

  In the words of another fellow short cranky blonde ' someone needs to be accountable' , and not someone with a gag order placed on them !! I want to see massive improvements in the club on and off the field next year before I commit to a membership ...
