Yeah I guess if you're going up as a spur of the moment thing it's more of an arse, ideally there'd be some kind of middle ground where you could get them signed them up in person within a few seconds with the same convenience (unless there is that already, not a clue)
Pretty sure hundreds of parent queuing up to prove their kid is under 12 sounds less workable than flashing some sort of JSB card at the turnstile or whatever they do.If you intend to take kids up all season then its worth doing and fairly straight forward.
But if you are just going as a walk up and want to take kids it's not workable.
Hence just make kids under 12 free when they arrive with any adult.
More adults will come and more kids will hopefully get the bug.
I was walking round Tesco the other day and fancied a sandwich but it turns out I had to go to the till and pay for it before I could start eating it.
What a pain in the arse.
Also, when I got home yesterday I tried to walk in the front door but I hurt my face, turns out I had to open it first.
What a pain in the arse.
Yes mate.
That defeats the object of the JSBS and takes away one of the main selling points and de-values it.
Even if you want to go to 2 or 3 games a year maximum, it still pays off to just sign them up as a JSB in the summer.
You can if you have a birth certificate sign up in person, although not many will be carrying them.
To get the free season ticket don't you need an adult season ticket as well ?
You will get more kids going through the turnstile my way.
........... and adults.
But do you need a season ticket to get the free JSB season ticket?Yes, they need an adult to take them?
But do you need a season ticket to get the free JSB season ticket?
You also don't have things like birthday / christmas cards to the kids, you don't get invites to the kids party, you don't get letters from Sky Blue Sam addressed to the kids. There also wouldn't be the free gifts that the kids seem to love getting at the start of each season as well.
It's not really breaking the bank to sign them up pre-season, then your kid gets free tickets all season if you go to 2 games or every game.
If you want the kid to have a season ticket of their own, then it needs an adult to get a season ticket with them....
Give it a rest italia. The offer is excellent, it's what fans have wanted. The jsbs, along with the academy are the best things about the club.
So non season ticket holders can't take their kids for free. Thats my point.
If your child signs as a jsb and you are not a sth you pay for a game and he goes freeSo non season ticket holders can't take their kids for free. Thats my point.

Yes they can. The kid doesn't then get a free season ticket (the physical card) but they get free entry to every game on a match by match basis with an adult.
At least try to understand what it is you are saying doesn't work before saying it.
It's you that keeps missing the point on this.
I'm saying all kids under 12 should be free with an adult.
You keep saying get them to become a JSB.
I'm saying that is inconvenient for most fans to do that so its not the answer if we want to encourage kids.
This match is a great deal but it's a one off and then the kids won't come because of the overall family cost.
Let adults not have to think of kids costs on the day and just turn up.

Where's the equivalent till on match day?
Revise....
You are there and you want the free sandwich but you can't have it because you needed to have previously signed up to get the card to do it.
You will need to pay the full price.
Next time you might not bother.
That doesn't even make any sense you cretin
It's not inconvenient is it? It takes hardly any time at all to sign them up and it encourages kids more than anything because of the interaction that comes with being a JSB. It's a selling point of getting the kids into the JSBs that they can go and watch all of the games for free.
You started off moaning that it had to be season ticket holders that went free and not single matches, now it is just people who want to go for a one-off match.
Christ, so many other clubs don't even let their kids club members in for free like us as it is. Same with having kids as mascots.
It's not an inconvenience for "most" fans, as "most" fans will have their kids in the JSBS to both save money and get their kids into CCFC a bit more.
They do go free.I'm not moaning.
I'm saying all kids under 12 should go free and you guys are taking it as a criticism of the offer.
They do go free you immbecil, but with a paying adult, how many 5-6 year olds do you know that get the bus up the ground and sit on there on there ownI'm not moaning.

Your Idea is to let them into the ground without signing up to any scheme or allocating a ticket to them. How do you know where they're sitting, what the attendance is etc.
if you think taking 5 minutes to sign a kid up to JSB is hard work then you must be one fat lazy git.
