They should of allowed a discounted price for new members signing up now but payments only starting later. I know 2 people who will join but only want to when were in super league. They have no interest in watching the championship. So wont be joining till probably Feb next year.

Will pre season friendlies be included in the price? How many challenge cup games would be included, it just says "the early rounds", what about play offs?

^ that's why they are doing it that way! If you want it cheap then get behind the club right away! If you only want SL then you'll get the SL price. Fair enough too me and good way to try and get people in NOW not in 8 months time.

If you leave the scheme then if you wish to re-join their would be a sign on fee applied if you wanted to re-join again (likely to be simailr cost to if just stayed in more than likely, if not more!).

Haha, not bad mate. If you were emigrating though guess wouldn't make a difference as you wouldn't be re-joining anytime soon

Q7 - What are the arrangements for Carers?

The club does not currently charge for carers admission, however, if a carer would like to become a member a small monthly payment of £2.99 will apply to enable them to share member benefits.

Hilarious avatar that!

I have just sent in my forms, and asked for the same seat that I have this year in the South Stand. Guaranteed if you want it.

South Stand Gold [concession] will cost £17.99 pcm [I am told] which, moneywise, is 88 p a year more than the current cost. Add on the extra bits and it is really good value, and spread through the year.

Possibly a good idea.

I think that a few of the Viking Stronghold forms should be sent to schools and passed round the town -- with the Weekly News, for instance.

As an outsider it seems a good idea, however people may hold back in the first year to see how the team performs. Have a good first year and you could get the 7000 in year 2, but, have a bad year and 7000 may be too much to expect. Unfortunately you need the money in the first year to have a good year. This is one of the problems for any team going into SL, the other is most of the top players are contracted for several years and not available.
Hope it works.
