Coventry have dropped the prices for every age group apart from OAPs who have an increase.

Which i think is a discrace. OAP's should be paying less, not more..

Thats the sort of stupid reply i expected...

As I thought you just said something without any substance or knowledge. OAPs in general have a hell of a lot more disposable income than in the past and its only going to continue to rise. The gap between pensioners and people who work is closer than ever.

 

To be honest I wouldn't mind OAPs paying a quid or two less but £4-£5 less is a hell of a difference.

To be honest I would not be so sure about the amount of disposable income continuing to rise for pensioners.............I know that my mother does not have the disposable income she had a year ago........it is substantially less.............and I know a lot of older people who are feeling the pinch due to non existent interest rates and other reasons.............

 

On the other hand I agree to a point about the difference in costs between what we as adults pay against what pensioners pay to get in..........a couple of quid yes............

 

The other thing is that now that students are being forced to stay in education until they are 18 is there going to be a reduction for them instead of cutting off at 16.................should they and pensioners pay the same rate............

 

Just a thought............

There aren't student rates at Leicester. Know it's always been easier for me financially going to Cov than the Lions for that reason. Can hardly afford me dinner, let alone tickets to watch our lot get smashed! Surprised it isn't a lot cheaper for students, would attract a young crowd and they'd probably put a fair bit behind the bar too!

'School or College' so its for those students that still live at home and get everything paid for by their parents! Attracting university students would probably get a good few on the gate

I'm sure Neil said it applies to university students as well? Perhaps he'll confirm.

That is good to know that at least one club is doing it............hopefully others will too..............the hard thing is these days (my two are now 25 and 15) is getting a job before you turn 18 as a lot of places (especially those like large supermarkets because of the alcohol laws) will not even consider you............I know my daughter was 17 before she got a job and not through lack of trying.............

I'll have to get down to Brandon and support which ever team is racing against cov each week then! ;)

Ha Ha! Be careful as that's how I started off in 1984. You might find yourself becoming a Bees fan eventually. :lol: Anyway, better stop before the forum police turn up as this is a Poole thread.
