Did You Know?

DID you know that, today, we are starting the second, crucial, part of our 2012-13 Membership drive?

Did you even know about 'Did You Know?'? Well, 'Did You Know?' is a feature the club is running, in conjunction with valued friends such as the Herald and Radio Plymouth, which endorses the benefits of becoming a Member at Home Park.
Back in April, we decided to offer the Green Army much more than just acquiring a season-ticket as a one-off transaction in the summer.
We asked supporters to Join the Club, become an Argyle Member, and be actively engaged throughout the season.
We have been overwhelmed by the numbers of fans showing their support by Joining the Club ahead of the new campaign.
Thank you.
However, we need even more fans to come forward and sign up.
Manager Carl Fletcher summed it up best this close-season when he stressed that, the more fans that become Argyle Members, the better it will be for all with green blood.
"The more people we get in, the more money we get, so it's good for everyone," he said.
"Our fans are probably been the best in the country that I've seen for sticking by their players and, if we stick together as a whole - staff, players and fans - then things for the football club are going to be fantastic."
And, of course, we all know how Home Park really rocks when the Green Army are there in numbers, and how that atmosphere really boosts the players.
With our new tailored memberships - launched in April - there are dozens of incentives for all sections of the Green Army to jump aboard the good ship Mayflower ahead of the new season.
We listened to our fans and put together a number of packages to suit everybody. All Membership packages now include fantastic benefits, including discount in the club shop, priority tickets to cup matches, and invites to exclusive club events.
Some Memberships, such as the Green Membership, come with, not only a 2012-13 season-ticket, but also discounts for Akkeron Hotels and Saltrock Clothing, and free room-hire at Home Park.
We want the whole of the Argyle community, all around the world, to know about what you will receive when you Join the Club and become an Argyle Member for 2012-13.
Hence, 'Did You Know?'
For instance, Did You Know that, as well as all of the above, the Green+ Membership comes with a free 2012-13 Argyle shirt of your choice, a programme for each match, and a year's subscription to Argyle Player? Unbeatable value for money!
And Did You Know that Members will receive invitations to six exclusive Home Park Members Only events during the season?
You will be seeing a great deal more of 'Did You Know?' in the build-up to the new season, alongside lots of exciting Argyle news, which we think will convince more and more people to Join the Club and become a Member.
You will hear about our plans for a new Home Park match-day family area, be involved in choosing the match-day food, and be asked whether you want to become an Argyle Ambassador.
And that is just for starters. There is much, much more to get the juices flowing before the new league season kicks off on August 18. Not long now.
Before that green-letter day, we have got prestige friendlies against Birmingham City and Preston North End - with special Members Only offer on tickets - and a Capital One Cup Battle of the Ports against Portsmouth.
That will give the Green Army the chance to see Fletch's exciting summer signings at Home Park for the first time: the nippy attacker Paris Cowan-Hall and experienced Cornish-born midfielder Jamie Lowry are already on board and others may follow.
For many reasons, there has not been a better recent time to become a member of Plymouth Argyle.
Then again, you probably knew that.
