I have contributed to the RST, and carried it on with Club 1872 since the start of both schemes. My contribution to the RST was supposed to make me entitled to a community share, never got one, but isn't an issue for me personally.
What do I get for my contributions to Club 1872, nothing that I can look at, and say this is what I did. Again not an issue for me, but will be for others.
Why not a non redeemable community share certificate to those who contribute to Club 1872, gives them something to be proud off.
I also bought shares in the club, as a fan not an investment. It is something I can physically look at, and pass on, showing my small contribution to the club's history, and future.
Wouldn't cost much, but might encourage people to become part of Club 1872.
