    No problem with an adult gaining entry with an OAP ticket as there shouldn't be any OAP concessions.

    Disagree. Sort out the alleged abuse.

    You don't stop being an adult when you turn 65. Most pensioners are well enough off and can afford full price (of course some won't be). Discounts should be removed from adults that can afford it and increased for younger people with families and who might be more likely to struggle to afford the tickets.

    The whole reduction for OAPs thing is a relic of a bygone age and society now needs to reject it.

    Only abuse is over 65s supporting this ticket price apartheid to the detriment of the younger fans

    I'll continue to "abuse" the system.

    Last para in particular I agree with....."a relic from a bygone era".......unfortunately like the nhs being wonderful, paper masks being able to control a pandemic and and economic migrants fleeing brutality in war torn france....the propaganda surrounding big baby discounts is immense.

    I appears that the Club have ‘copied and pasted’ the original full price season ticket for each age group when they were first advertised on sale last June and then reduced the prices.
    The under 12 half season ticket price has not been reduced.
    In my opinion there are gong to be precious few adults purchasing a half price season ticket and an under 12 half price season ticket at the same time.
    There is a huge jump in the price of a season ticket for people aged 12-17 compared to those under 12.

    You might change your tune when you become 65.
    My wife’s GP (now retired) once told her to use her age to her advantage.

    The club could surely print the Under 12 season tickets in a different colour. It is not rocket science!

    I won't, but as your GP advised your wife if it's there I'll take total advantage.
