    Simple question really.

    Are you a member of your club's supporter's club?

    I'm a member of the Nottingham Forest club and it cost's €22 a year and with that I get a diary, badge, pencil and membership card :)

    Most of them are irrelevant in the age of the Internet,I have found in my dealings with them that most of them are one step up from a drinking club.Of course there are expectations.

    That's effectively what the red membership is, I applied for a season ticket when I joined too. Think I'm about 15k on that, not in any rush to buy a season ticket though!

    Yep One United member, discount in club shop, pen, badge, a buke and something else I think. I think it's €50 for an adult(which I am this season:()

    I've been a member for the last 3 season and 1 game a season and they've been City, City and Liverpool, so I can't complain!:D

    Probably won't be a member when I'm auld and wise enough to go to games without me Da, though.

    Membership of Wexford Youths Official Supporters Club is €10 for adults, €5 for kids and entitles you to subsidised travel to away games and 10% off all official club merchandise.

    The original post probably didn't consider LOI, but sure I had to throw it in.

    Have also been a loyal fan of LUFC for 35 years but never saw the need to be a member of their supporters club.

    It would appear so. The title of the thread did not make it clear and my post was number 23 and the only one to mention LOI

    Because it's irrelevant what club you support or pay your membership too.

    No official supporters club anymore at Shels, was one couple of seasons ago and I was a member. Few supporters groups at Shels, just no membership crap.

    Same as. Although, I paid €27 or 37 quid. (Discount for renewing early, and subsidised by the local supporters club).
