    Fillet of a fenny snake,
    In the caldron boil and bake;
    Eye of newt, and toe of frog,
    Wool of bat, and tongue of dog,
    Adder's fork, and blind-worm's sting,
    Lizard's leg, and owlet's wing,—
    For a charm of powerful trouble,
    Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.
       ALL.  Double, double toil and trouble;
    Fire burn, and caldron bubble.
       3 WITCH.  Scale of dragon; tooth of wolf;
    Witches' mummy; maw and gulf
    Of the ravin'd salt-sea shark;
    Root of hemlock digg'd i the dark;
    Liver of blaspheming Jew;
    Gall of goat, and slips of yew
    Sliver'd in the moon's eclipse;
    Nose of Turk, and Tartar's lips;
    Finger of birth-strangled babe
    Ditch-deliver'd by a drab,—
    Make the gruel thick and slab:
    Add thereto a tiger's chaudron,
    For the ingrediants of our caldron.
       ALL.  Double, double toil and trouble;
    Fire burn, and caldron bubble.
       2 WITCH.  Cool it with a baboon's blood,
    Then the charm is firm and good.

Ok I'll make sure I correct any non members when they call themselves supporters. 

What if they make a donation or buy merchandise?  What should we call them?
It would be highly unusual for a non member to make donations. Why wouldn't they donate and get a membership back?
As for people that just buy merchandise, I would call them consumers.
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.

What do you call someone with a membership but sits behind a glass wall and doesn't watch or cheer the players on?
Does anyone have half an idea on anything?

If you only go once in a while, what's wrong with buying a three game membership? More money will go to the club you supposedly support.

Guess it depends on your definition of "a while". My old man lives in Portugal so can only go to a game once in a while i.e. max once a year.

Do you think your family support you? Or have you peed them off because they don't support you financially?

Nothing wrong with just barracking for the tigers. You're just not classified as a supporter IMHO.

Not you. The person that just comes to one game a year. They can be called a follower of the RFC and a person that barracks for them. Just not a supporter. Just my opinion as I look at supporters as people that financially support the club. They are the life blood of the club - its members.

Funny. I consider a lot of people who are members but chuck tanties and bag the club relentlessly (or dump manure) as not supporters. Since when has financial support been the only form of support?
