I wouldn’t say sod all exactly. It gives people a chance to get tickets prior to general public sales or home matches. There will probably be some general public tickets for some games but for very popular games they maybe harder to get hold of and having the membership gives you much more chance of getting them especially home tickets. They are even giving people the chance to buy 2 tickets with their memberships - that’s better than what season tickets holders are allowed! Lol. For away matches you have to have a membership and for some of the matches you should be able to get tickets however they’ll probably be a sales criteria and the popular games or grounds with smaller allocations may sell out to ST holders. They’ll give you a starting balance of £2.50 city cash which can be added to if you buy home tickets merchandise etc. Entry into a competition to win tickets.
I believe personally this season the general public will be able to get tickets BUT they’re wont be many left and in some cases sold out prior to general public sales etc. I’m sure last time the memberships were more expensive but cannot remember. £25 doesn’t sound too bad really.
It's £25 to jump the queue for home tickets and also potentially buy away tickets. It's a fair price.
Useful for us exiles who can't justify a season ticket but do a lot of aways.
Exactly. That's why I always buy one.Quote:

I picked one up for me and one for the the missus.
Being able to buy 2 tickets is a good thing provided they keep that rule for all matches. I remember last time we went up games against the "big 6" were limited to 1 per person so I couldn't take anyone, and all I had for company was a cup of overly hot coffee at half-time.
What a ridiculous comment. I now live in Scotland, and, for exiles like myself, a membership is invaluable for helping securing away tickets that are in the north of England. Also for getting a priority on home tickets when they become available which helps greatly when planning on whether to book flights back to Cardiff. It’s good value for money. Think again.Quote:

I was under the impression that was £2 per game last season- so if you attend 12-13 games then the membership pays for itself.
If you attend say 7 then it’s £11
