I would have thought that, unless there's a covering letter giving more details, the pack will be a printed version of what's online - it was like that last year (y'know, the one that metioned the commemorative shirt 17 times

And it states on the bumph that family consists of mother, father and children all living at the same address - doesnt include, or doesnt appear to include, people sharing a house

There is a single person's membership - it just costs the same as a family one.

£730 plus a minimum of £148.00 for a automatic cup scheme plus more if you opt in to Carling Cup games.
Compare that to Salfords season ticket and I think it is a bargain.
Look at say Boltons season ticket cost who I would say are a equivalent in football terms to Salford i.e will never win anything and will always be just above relegation(no offence to Bolton fans, but the truth hurts) and you will see RL still offers a good deal

Cheers. I looked at next years prices and the cheapest day ticket is £15 so that wouldbe about right.

So last year an adult paid £167. If you went for the weekend presumably that would have been £175 (£15 magic ticket). Then the better half who only goes occasionally so doesn't have a seaon ticket pays £15. £190. And that is if you sit in the cheap seats. So £180 doesn't seem that pricey now does it?

I think some people have looked at the £20 increase and understandably got a bit upset but I still think as a rugby fans in general I think we get it pretty good. A bloke I was talking to last week paid £35 quid just for himself to go to a carling cup game at old trafford - bearing in mind you'd be expecting to watch the reserves I'm not sure we can complain too much about prices.

Lets say I pick half the games to go to and choose 7 out of the 13 home games...as a non-member that would cost me £126. As a member it would cost me £134. Bargain!!

You have to go to 9 games to make a saving on the single pay as you go membership (£158 v £162).

Yes but your forgetting the free away shirt and the magic weekend ticket.

The financial incentive of being a member is to make it more affordable for familes to attend more if not all the games! It's simple, if fans only choose to attend a few games during the season they pay the full price on the gate!

This new membership scheme seems a great idea to me especially considering all the whinging on this forum earlier this year about the cost of bringing the kids to the match being too expensive.

Free away shirt only applies to people buying the season ticket.

And whilst I agree that the membership idea in general is a good one and the family membership idea could well increase families going to the game, I feel it shouldnt isolate other sectors of the support which it seems to be doing at the minute.

If membership was £10 per person with a family membership at £20/£25 with similar benefits to what are on offer now then I think it would have been received a whole lot better than it has at the minute and could well have got a lot more support, both in take-up numbers and in back-slapping for the club.

I'm going to try and keep out of this debate/argument for a while now anywayas I think I've made my points fairly clear...its a brilliant idea for families and offers superb deals for them - not so good for single/individual fans.

I was indeed 'joshing' (great word by the way!) but, if you really wanted to, I'm sure you cold probably get away with this and use it as a way of making the cost less for fans that attend matches 'on their own'.

There's no practical way the club could verify who lives where and, even if they could, there's no way they could/would check that everynone who comes in is the person that is named on the season ticket.
