Red > Silver Membership .... and New Season Tickets

They only ever move 2000 in total a year (including junior gunners) so you will be waiting at least 5 more years, more likely another 6. I don't think that many people don't renew their silver memberships, Â£30 is do-able for most people, even in a recession

Well I've moved up 3,000 places from June 2008 to June 2009, so I guess you're wrong!

They didn't publicly update the numbers in 2008 (I phoned them every few weeks to check if they'd been updated). So you moved 3000 places since they were last updated (2007) to now. I'd say I'm right

Good luck with your wait though

Got my silver renewal in the post this morning and it says, I kid you not,

"Remember, renew by 8th June to keep your current status...."

What's the date today?

The club do not have a clue how to deal with the fans.

i've spoken to a silver member who didn't renew his membership, and then during the season called them up paid the fee and had it re-activated from that point on. Red's don't stand a chance. the longer you are on it and willing to pay up why should they help you out.

The 8th of June is apparently a mistake. Somebody rang the club & I believe they said it should read 8th of July. But then again on the enclosed paper Red renewal form it says to renew by 1st of July.

Yeah, I got mine Saturday and it said the same thing. Tossers can't get fuck all right.

Two years ago I enquired about my position on the list and was told I was 18999. As they were not published last year I called them and they said I was still 18999. I asked why I hadn't moved up the list at all and they could offer no explanation. They didn't care a toss frankly. I've been a red member since two weeks after it was launched and they told me back then that it would be about 5 years to go silver and that the move to the grove may speed that up. looks like it was another load of AFC bullshit

And on the disc it says Gold by 1st June and Silver/Red by 8th June. Also the disc doesn't play properly.

Looks like they're shitting themselves about games going on general sale next season too. I just got an email and from next year on it will be possible for a member to purchase more than one ticket for certain fixtures!

The club have sent an email out, memberships to be renewed by 1st July.
