SAME SEX PARENTS FAMILY TICKET??

SAME SEX PARENTS FAMILY TICKET??

Postby PUNKISDEAD » Tue Jul 01, 2008 8:55 pm

Hi everyone, i have just registered, but i am a fan that attends all home games and i view the board on a regular basis, i have decided to register as it seems quite a good laugh, I realise most people on the board will be season ticket holders, but looking at the ticket structure for this season, it struck me that if two blokes, or women turned up with a child claiming to be a same sex parent family, will the child get in free?
i am not posting this message out of mischief, i am just curious to know if anyone knows as it it would mean two people of any family orientation wth one child would be better off financially not buying season tickets and just paying in and getting free admission for their child??

Have you asked the club? We can speculate, but they'll know for sure.

It is a good question though... I'm pretty sure that the club would not want to risk being the wrong side of a discrimination accusation, but it does beg the question as to what, if any, checks are done for 'families'.

That said, if two blokes or women claim to be a couple when they bring a child to the match, to get a discount, then let them crack on, if it helps get more people through the gate.

So how did that work out then?

Getting bums on seats has got to be a priority, and imho you are spot-on Keith.
So why not open up the types of concessions, and encourage sectors of the local public who would otherwise not be able to afford to watch their local footie team?
You know what I mean Keith ;)
