What is this even for?

There is a drive to get people to sign up for 'club membership, which is basically a big mailing list as far as I can see.

This is an attempt to get the thousands of locals who support the big clubs in Merseyside and Manchester to follow us too.

It is pretty cringey, but I get the sentiment.

Ah okay got it. I thought it was some kind of dual membership thing with a Man Utd/Everton membership alongside a Wrexham one.

I guess one of the good things about being from where we are is that the big club is Hull and then we've got The North Sea so we won't be doing anything like this.

I know we were shite last year but £10 season tickets to get fans back is going a bit OTT if you ask me. :bg:

You must.

It was agreed that he chairs the Tinpot Brotherhood to keep him happy. The one with reformed clubs in like Chester, Darlington, Halifax 2008 etc.
It was "agreed" among those who had no say in the matter, at all.

I am the sole founder and administrator of The Brotherhood. I make the rules. The rules were made on Day 1 and have not changed. The rules are:

1. The Brotherhood is comprised of those clubs who were in the Football League in 1986, in any guise, shape or form.

2. Membership is for all time.
3. No club may leave The Brotherhood
4. No further clubs may be admitted to The Brotherhood.
5. There is no hierarchy in The Brotherhood, all of the clubs have equal standing.

That is all that anyone needs to know about The Brotherhood. If anything changes, I will be the one deciding and making the changes and you will be notified accordingly. Don't wait up. :ds:

a Halifax fan who let his club go bust and likes to believe he still supports an ex league club
Welcome to the party, I'm afraid you missed it. This particular matter was settled by the FA in 2008. Please contact the FA for further details. :bdick:

so we were in the league before 1986 and have been after 1986... but can never be in the brotherhood... (not that we ever want to come back down again....)

Very symbolic of Bromley's playoff campaign.

pmsl... yep, I saw a table full of the stupid things and I actually thought it would end up being commented about on here.

Pity the poor sods who had to tidy up afterwards as I don't think one of them lasted the full match. My son, bless him, who is old enough to know better, actually kept his. I've disowned him.
