Who are yer?
We are Arsenal's official Supporters club for the West Midlands and Worcester.
That incorporates the Black Country to the west and Coventry to the east plus the
counties of Warwickshire, Staffordshire, Shropshire, Herefordshire and
Worcestershire..in effect the greater West Midlands.
It's a big patch and for several years no Arsenal Supporters Clubs have existed
here either officially or unofficially. Early in the 2005-06 season (the last at
Highbury) we decided that given the fame and all round greatness of our club
this was a situation that ought to be rectified.
We set about organising a group to bring
together like-minded supporters across
the region who share our passion, to
organise trips to watch the team both home
and away and arrange social gatherings
from time to time.
At last count we have about 200 members
from all over the patch plus another 150 or
so on our database. to build on. Thanks to
everyone who's got in touch and helped us
to grow so successfully.
Arsenal granted us official recognition in July 2006; a Chairman, Treasurer and Secretary were appointed (posts which are elected each summer); a launch meeting was organised and our first ticket order was placed with the club (DB10 testimonial).
Membership fees for 2008-09 are provisionally set at:
Gold: £10, rising to £15 at the end of June.
Silver: free but optional donations of £5 towards Club funds
Reds: £15, rising to £20 at the end of June
Travel Club: £15 rising to £20 at the end of June

Non-Arsenal members: £15 rising to £20 at the end of June
