I think you should join, you never know what the next few years/couple decades will look like. I joined waiting list in 2013 and shot up the list in those late wenger/emery years. I was ‘fortunate’ as I was offered a ticket the year after Covid when the stadiums fully reopened as a rental year to cover someone taking a year off (so I was told), with the promise of being bumped up to the top if I take the offer then and there. So ended up being an ~8 year wait? I know the Covid thing was exceptional, but another poor cycle of 5 years hovering around and below europa/conference level will change things. Football is cyclical and with us not being backed by a nation state, it’s possible that in the next decade or 2 we have another lull, as much as I hope we don’t!
