    Shockingly irresponsible on their part.

    All good parents are buying bungalows these days so their children never have to go up stairs.

    Take it up with BFC if you disagree with it.

    It hasn't gone mad though. BFC have. There is no precedent that I am aware of for a club being sued by s fan for being hit with a ball.

    I make mine sleep under the stairs and piss in the kitchen sink just to be on the safe side.

    I dont really, I havent got any kids, but if I did they'd be taking a bath in the garden shed.

    I never stated the club had been sued by a fan for being hit with a ball.

    Or you could simply stop talking ********.

    Where is your evidence that under 5's have attempted to sue BFC?

    Oh and isnt that exactly what he tried to do? Take it up with BFC who didn't give a ****?

    Presumably they got up the stairs ok in the first place as there isn't a lift they can use? Coming down is the easy part surely?

    The family area was closed last season due to lack of sponsorship.

    Re: just checked the Ticket site, it quite clearly says 5 - 11

    Gally could the supporters trust try to get some kind of meaningful answer from the club as to why they are turning away fans when we have well over 10,000 empty seats?

    The questions I (and I guess overs) would like answering are
    1. Why have the club suddenly decided on this policy when it didn't exist previously?
    2. Have all existing under 5 season ticket holders had their tickets revoked?
    3. Will players and the management team still be allowed to bring their under 5 year old children to games?

    Re: just checked the Ticket site, it quite clearly says 5 - 11

    It's quite poor really that we close the family stand and stop trying to encourage kids as much just because we weren't very good at getting a sponsor for the stand. I've have thought they'd be queuing up to pay £100 to sponsor the family stand for a year. I know what you're thinking '£100 is nowt' and you're right it isn't much but Id prefer to have £100 in my hand than nothing at all.

    Did you ignore the other bit of his post deliberately? Of course you did that`s why its missing in your quote!

    So I will ask it again, Isn`t that exactly what he tried to do in the first instance and they fobbed him off with some tripe about H&S? He asked BFC and they talked gibberish, yet you , who does not have any kids , think they are right and has contiually derided the man for doing exactly what you are suggesting!!

    But everything is OK in your world because after God knows how many years of waiting BFC have finally joined the rest of the World and are now letting you buy tickets by email, therefore you love them to its and can see no fault in them, can you?

    Hopefully sponsorship is being actively seeked so this area can open back up as soon as possible and be filled with young kids who are the future lifeblood of our club.

    Re: just checked the Ticket site, it quite clearly says 5 - 11

    Sorry I am confused. Why does it have to be sponsored to be open?

    Presumably the sponsorship subsidises the family discount.

    Re: just checked the Ticket site, it quite clearly says 5 - 11

    Then why doesn't the club do something pro active and do a 'family' ticket and get people through the door?
