Quick query, if anyone knows the answer - I know in the past it was necessary to bring some kind of age verification into the ticket office for concession tickets, but I'm guessing these days there's no need for anything like that? Not asking to get adults into the stadium on a kids ticket, or owt dodgy, but just in terms of registering a new customer, if there are any hoops to jump through. Since the ticket office is never open I guess I know the answer :)

Wasn’t asked for proof of my grandson’s age, mind he’s only 11
 

Didn’t we have about 30k season tickets in the Premier League. Would be brilliant to get near that in the league below.
 
Interesting issue raised around age verification of concessionary tickets.
I had two U16 tickets going back to the opening of the SoL and seem to recall showing birth certificates when first buying them

I was speaking to a Mag I know who pays £600 for a season ticket and £200 for his kid.
He claims there are loads of fat baldy tw*ts who only use a £200 ticket without ever being challenged.
Is it an issue at the SoL when tickets are so cheap for kids?
Things are so hard at the moment you can sympathise but it's not right.
However, how would it be policed when most people turn up in the 15 minutes before kick off?

The light above the turnstile flashes amber if you use a concession card to get in the ground. I’d imagine the stewards who are watching you enter will do spot checks if you flash amber and you aren’t a kid or don’t look over 65.

I had to send a photo in of the bairns birth certificate at the start of last season to get her season card.

Hadn't realised that we had that technology in place.
Bit disappointed that even though I am just over 65, I thought I look pretty youthful but have never been challenged, somewhat disappointingly!

It still won't address the fact that many lads could/will use a u16 card to get in. There's hardly any stewards on duty and they couldn't give a fuck.

Course it doesn't, be easy for most people to get a kids birth certificate but doesn't seem as if they're even bothering with that now.

How did that work? Did they email or something? There's nothing on the system about that when you sign up.

I remember speaking to a lass in the ticket office last August, I paid for it but she asked for me to email it in, I just sent it to the ticket office email address.
 
Just spotted on the season ticket pricing page on the website where it states: 'A copy of your birth certificate or passport is required' though I've no idea how that is enforced.

Nah mate. They might start using it for match day sales again but I suspect we are still 5,000 SC sales short before they consider opening it.

I do really hope though that folk that has previously walked away, get their arses back. Over the last three weeks there has been no shortage of sob stories to get Wembley tickets and it would be nice if they just committed to a SC

Some will be genuine mate but for the majority it’s just the modern day “I’m not going until Murray has gone” excuse.
