Any on info on joining the trust? As an exile who goes to more away games than home I think it would be worthwhile for me to join.
I spoke to a mate of mine, Mr G.O Ogle and he tells there a website to find out the information. http://www.marinerstrust.co.uk/cat/membership/

I will be honest and say this sort of thing annoys me. The Trust have been virtually begging for members these last few years yet people haven't joined because they are not sure of the cost v benefit. It isn't about what anyone can 'get' out of it, surely it is about helping YOUR club at a cost affordable to all. ( Is it stil £12pa and you can pay monthly by standing order!) If you benefit, as Paris has by getting a ticket when he otherwise wouldn't have, then great but that isn't the point.

This sort of thing annoys me. People are free to join the trust whenever they want for whatever reason. I renewed my membership earlier in the week so I could get tickets for Mansfield and my brother joined today so that we can go and support Town together. Over the years we've put plenty of financial (and emotional) support into the club. If the current ticket allocation has encouraged some to sign up to the Trust to ensure their tickets then great, if people don't fancy the extra £15 then fine. I'm an exile, don't get to many games and am well up for next week, if some want to gripe about chucking the extra £15 the clubs way and not going then so be it. It's their choice. If you want to have a pop at me for only renewing my membership feel free, but it seems a little churlish. Ultimately, from some thoughtful marketing, the club has another £30 in its pocket and I've no issue with that.

If that's the case, and that's only the sort of members the club want, then the club wouldn't offer incentives to members. The club offers tickets to trust members first to encourage membership. It's clearly working so well done to all. If we should be successful and our away support continues I would suggest an 'away' season ticket for £10 per season. This gives you first dibs on tickets for away games. I'd pay it. 1000 of those is £10,000 in the kitty. Just my thoughts

| The wife was going away for a girly weekend. I jokingly remarked 'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football' 'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked She said 'Well you already know how to play football' |

We have had a significant increase in new memberships over the past fortnight. All is good!!

I have got my ticket. I am a lifetime trust member. It is a bargain at £100 and would recommend all to do it if you can afford it. Much cheaper than £12 a year in the long run. I never have any bother getting tickets as a Trust Member. Children are only £1 per year.

I think my subscription may be due?, are we getting reminders, or do I need to be proactive and check?
