    Why is it that a new season ticket holder, say a regular who paid on the gate and has started taking their seven year old isn't entitled to a free U11s ticket but have to pay thirty quid...

    The Don hates kids, hence the under 5's ban and the lack of haribo in the ponty end kiosk. :)

    seriously though it seems strange !!

    I'd not seen that. Seems odd.

    Not wishing to be controversial, I'm in the same boat (other than my lad is 6), but I think it's perfectly fair.

    5-11 season tickets are £30. Fair price.

    However as an incentive to existing loyal customers, they are offering a free one to those who renew quickly.

    Yes we are existing customers, just ones who don't have STs at the moment. But the club can incentivise who it likes and I think prioritising those who have historically backed the club in full is fair enough.

    I assume you've noticed your ticket, never mind the juvenile one, will be more expensive as a new applicant too?

    Mine appears to be cheaper than last season.
