I think this is what I am going to do

there seem to be lots of Wrothers in the same boat as me so happy to share out membership for the many games I can't make

Just need to convince the CO that the expense is justifiable

No way I'd have been a canary if my parents hadn't been able to take me to the odd game when I was in that 6-8 bracket. I'm lucky that I can afford the memberships but by god it's painful to be forced to pay £150 just to get to the front of the queue to buy tickets together.

And *is* it really worth it trying to get them hooked on nodge when there are closer clubs they can support for less time & £££ investment?
