Is anyone else slightly disapointed with the take up on our membership scheme? I always thought it would be difficult to get to the 5,000 target but we seem to be crawling up now towards 2,000 I don't know how many season tickets were sold last year but surely we should be able to manage to shift 3,500.

I think we sold 2,800 last year - so quite a bit to do yet. The good news train doesn't keep stopping at the CTRLFC station as much as it does at other clubs so I think we rely more on people just renewing.

A new signing or something/anything positive would help a great deal right now.

I'm not. An adult Silver membership costs over 14% more than last season, when the players put in abut 14% effort on the field!!!! I think we will see a boost between now and the end of the month and then another boost before Christmas. I wish the club would keep the cost of the tickets at their current levels to encourage those sitting on the fence to purchase. Also, as someone else has said, another signing or two, even on loan wouldn't go amiss.

Get Jamie Cording to drink some as well.

I have just read a letter from a supporter in the Pontefract & Castleford Express this morning who supported cas since the 2nd World War. He is 78 years old and has just purchased a bronze membership even though he can only watch Cas on the television, some may think this is nothing special but the man lives in Sussex so he cannot make use of the deals on offer. I wish many of our so called loyal supporters would take a leaf out of his book, then we may get to be able to sign some more players that we badly need to compete for a full season.

When I bought me silver membership there was an elderly gentleman in the shop. He was already a life member and bought a siver membership "just to help the club out".

Some people are fans - some people are supporters.

When i bought my membership, i got told i must be daft, or have too much money, by posters on other boards, just because i bought a membership knowing i had very little chance of seeing a live game, but for me we need every penny we can get, if we loose the Tigers out of Cas, whats left

I applaud all of those fans who back their club despite living miles away or not being able to attend.

A true demonstration of loyalty.

Just reached the 2000 milestone.

Great now we need a big push for the next 3000

I am slightly disappointed that not more of current ST holders have signed up, especially as these are more than likely the ones singing and chanting about how loyal they are to the club and more of a fan than those who do not have season tickets.

To me the membership scheme is a much better system and well thought out process.

I like the idea of the prizes to encourage people to sign up and also the membership pack is something in return for showing your support.

I realise a lot of people are annoyed that they can't stand in the WRE because they are not a member, but with bronze membership only being £50 it's not that expensive when you think that you get 2 games included at £20 each, it's only really a tenner to get all the other benefits that come with the membership. A lot of clubs are either doing this already or are going to be doing this in future and having exclusive stands for their members. I really don't think it is going to be anything out of the ordinary and for once we seem to have jumped on the bandwagon early rather than playing catch up later.

I would like to see us reach the 5000 mark but unfortunately I think last seasons performances afftected the club and peoples attitudes towards it. However, we desperately need to reacht he 5000 mark if we are to have any chance of competing or surviving.

I agree we need some positive news of either a signing/stadium update or something along those lines but until people put some money in we are unlikely to see anything put out.

I want this club to be succesful and really do hope that people who are sitting on the fence on whether to get a membership go out and get one, you get out what you put in. Even if you can't afford silver, please try and get a bronze membership. I applaud all the people buying memberships who may never even get to a game. Dean Widders and Adrian Vowles being prime examples of the loyalty shown by some folk!

Should be a stadium update soon quoting from Steve Frees recently We hope to be able to give an update on the stadium's progress in the coming weeks."

Agree CM2

There is a thread on Casforum btw, if you have any questions for Steve Ferres.

73 memeberships sold today!!!!! They are increasing day by day, think we could make it 100 tomorrow?
