But you just watch someone put a negative spin on it :lol:
I think the white membership increase is most probably boosted by exiled fans. If you can only get down for a handful of games you might previously have just paid on a match by match basis. But by getting six games (well six seats, you don't have to use one per game*) although you don't save a life changing amount of money you do get a club shop discount and you do get your foot in the door one day earlier for big game tickets.
*A few family members get one up here which gives us dozens of tickets to use in one's, two's, three's or fours as required through the year. The white membership really is our modern day 'flexible friend' to use the old advertisement slogan.
If any exiles out there haven't previously considered one I would give it some thought. Because it's not a full membership the difference in early bird and full price isn't much, so buying one even now will still get you a good return and crucially that 'foot in the door' for big game tickets.
