We had 10 midweek evening home games in the league this season by my count (a quick glance, may be wrong). The scheduling is going to be even more irregular this year. I’m glad it works out bringing your kids to the games, but there are plenty of legitimate reasons why it won’t work for other families.
It’s a demographic we should be encouraging to attend regularly, instead we’re putting more restrictions on them than anyone else in the building.
I'm not being touchy , I just have never understood why parents get so bothered about keeping a kid up a couple hours later than normal once here or there .. parent as you wish but kids generally have more energy than me and you
Awaydays.I don't agree with the revoking of STs , but why are you buying them anyways if you can only make Saturday games as we've always had midweek matches , and Friday and Sunday matches
With all due respect, having a young child go to sleep at midnight and then still wake up at 7am f***s both there day and yours and possibly the next two or three. It's not the same as me or you having a late night and muddling through.
Do you have kids? Genuine question?I'm not being touchy , I just have never understood why parents get so bothered about keeping a kid up a couple hours later than normal once here or there .. parent as you wish but kids generally have more energy than me and you
Perhaps they have a bad month or two through illness etc, they want us to report that. Fuck off
Nail on head - they need to just get the kids matchday prices right and this all makes sense...I'm not sure why people would pay for something they can't attend ?
Maybe the answer is to reduce the price of kids tickets generally as a single purchase so fans don't feel forced to buy in the family zone to save money
20 - 25 quid is silly money for kids to attend
Have 2 girls that have had season tickets since they were young , yesDo you have kids? Genuine question?
Very generalist view either way. Kids also change mind an hour before going because they do or they're sick - is that the tipping point to have their ST revoked!!!?
The overall premise is correct, the language used and detail not hit mark for me.
I will still buy both my kids STs, ultimately should be my choice then what I do with them. But there we go, they will be able to tell their mates they have been banned from going if fixtures don't fall well!
The guy clearly doesn't have young kids and doesn't have a clue
Well yes the cost of kids at our matches is atrocious if you can't buy in the family zone , that's the real problemMaking Family Zone admission this competitive also implies the club know it’s the only place in the ground that comes remotely close to offering value for money for families. Surely that needs addressing too?
I think that's so other people can use the ticket in your absence , which is something that's done at lots of clubsWell, if you don't attend you 'must' put your tickets on the exchange. Its confusing
Well I buy a season ticket knowing I won’t be able to attend every game, especially in midweek - I prefer to stay involved though, and the club gets my money regardless. Are you saying I should just not bother instead? I’d like to keep attending, but if I’m not wanted then I can spend the cash elsewhere.I'm not sure why people would pay for something they can't attend ?

I'm sure you will spend the cash elsewhere SBT , somebody will just buy your ticketsWell I buy a season ticket knowing I won’t be able to attend every game, especially in midweek - I prefer to stay involved though, and the club gets my money regardless.

But your approach may differ to person A,B,C,D no one is more entitled than any other. Having been through that yourself.Have 2 girls that have had season tickets since they were young , yes
If you say so!I'm sure you will spend the cash elsewhere SBT , somebody will just buy your tickets

They will , I know a few who couldn't buy in that area last season as they sold out rapidIf you say so!
Why are people buying season tickets if they can't attend almost half the games? Just buy individual match tickets. This is a non issue.
In Block 18?They will , I know a few who couldn't buy in that area last season as they sold out rapid
The bitchI agree with you. It shouldnt be a problem. But shes a woman. She thinks 'na its just football'
No the family zone , as that's what we're talking aboutIn Block 18?
Agreed, we're out
We're not fucking Barca we sold out twice this season. The ticket exchange is a great idea, the telling you how many games you must attend before any of us know the impact of the new sky TV deal on 3pm Saturdays is a joke
They absolutely willSo with the exchange. Do they sell the ticket twice then?
If it helps irrespective of my opinion .I think the exchange will stay but they will drop the revoking
.
Conspiracy theories incoming!You'll be out but replaced
to be fair, I think the £50 season tickets for U14s last year was ridiculously cheap - 1/8 the price of the cheapest adult ticketIn fairness , and it's been mentioned .. buying in the family zone saved alot of money as our ticketing prices for kids is pretty atrocious and one of the worst in the league for single match tickets
That needs addressing and then I'd say I agree totally
To get a season ticket yesWhilst don't disagree and in normal fixture circumstance, no issue. With likelihood at multiple changes/evening kick offs that makes it really tricky for genuine families with young children.
So with the exchange. Do they sell the ticket twice then?
I’d say it needs some thinking about got someone’s fingers on it - needs some supporter group challengeAgreed, we're out
