You're passionate about supporting your club, and no doubt just as passionate about your country.
And if the country you support is England, and you want the chance to buy tickets for international matches, the best way to do so is to join englandfans, the official England supporters club - if you haven't enrolled already.
It's particularly timely at present, given that fingers crossed, qualification for World Cup 2006 is just around the corner. This means there will be a huge clamour for tickets for England matches - whether for home games prior to the tournament, or in Germany itself.
Current membership of englandfans is split into two categories:
englandfans+ for those supporters who want to gain access to tickets for home, away and World Cup 2006 tickets, and
englandfans for those who only want access to tickets for England home games.
Membership of englandfans+ is limited to 25,000, and with the recent wins over Northern Ireland and Azerbaijan having brought World Cup qualification within touching distance, that figure is fast being approached. So if you haven't joined already, we urge you do so quickly. There is no upper limit on englandfans membership.
To get an explanatory application brochure and form for either membership category, simply call 0845 458 1966, or go to www.TheFA.com/englandfans
Within each category there are online and offline memberships, and a package for junior englandfans.
Adult membership for englandfans starts at £45 and for englandfans+ at £65 whilst junior englandfans membership starts at £25 - small prices to pay to give yourself a great chance to be at games which may go down in history.
Clearly, access to tickets is the main magnet for joining, but there are numerous other benefits, including:
• news of matches and ticket purchasing
details before these are announced to the general public
• a welcome pack with lots of exclusive
englandfans merchandise;
• monthly e-newsletter
• members' magazine
• exclusive members competitions and
offers
Your country - assuming it is England - looks forward to having you fully on board.
