The Equalizer Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 I find all of these private members organizations disgusting on principle. It's elitist and exclusionary by default, and anyone who pay's to be a card carrier is subscribing to a status that we should all find repugnant. Come the revolution they will be the second against the wall, right behind the Windsors. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum membership requires a minimum income of £10pa - I shudder to think what the Platinum forums would turn into if we allowed just anyone in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D Angelo Barksdale Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 Glad this has happened. We can never have true equality until powerful and elite women are allowed to join powerful and elite little boys clubs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We let women in but the club used to have a rule about "no jeans or t-shirts in the upstairs bar after 7pm" but since the club moved and the old radge members snuffed it/f*cked off in the huff it doesn't matter anymore. When are the WI going to let in chaps then? Some chaps might like knitting, baking and chatting total shite. Wasn't it you lot who forced your hipster ex-owner to change the name to FC Edinburgh? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were told at the AGM last year that The Social Club actually enquired into trademarking "Edinburgh City" and were told to f*ck off by Edinburgh Gin Ltd who make a gin called Edinburgh City Gin.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
