5 free tickets

[oliver]

I have an oap season ticket do I have to take 5 oaps to the game?

[RedJ]

Yes, unfortunately. Or fortunately, depending on which way you look at it.

[DonnyBazR0ver]

I would approach Tracy at the ticket office.

Sort of waters down the offer if people are restricted to who they may take to a game. Perhaps this could be raised by the VSC.

Could the extra be paid to make up the difference on an adult ticket?

depends I have 3 kids season tickets but bit unfair if I could bring 15 adults in with them

With the kids tickets could be a good move to just include free kids tickets. One very good way of getting more kids following the club.
Maybe also worth the club thinking of adding a number (5?) of free kids tickets onto adult tickets anyway, as an extra to the free adults tickets. Its no loss to the club, and always likely there'd be money made from drinks and so on, as well as building the fan base.

You can take/give them to anyone under 17 as well.

[JFEDIR]

What about of you have a Disabled/Carers ticket?

She's not that old is she????

at a guess I would think you can take adults in with the disabled but none with the carer

[DaveOfDonny]

What game is this for?

Fair point there and there is probably a case for saying that kids only get kids extra tickets.  For those with senior concessions I think they should be able to bring non concession adults.  Presumably the aim is to encourage more people to try a game for free and hopefully they will want to come back.

[Bristol Red Rover]

Thinking especially of the kids freebies - the big benefit is bringing in new people with committed fans. Whether its kids bringing along their besty mate or an adult being able to give a one off treat to kids, you have new people coming along with someone who's familiar with the club and will no doubt be selling the experience to them in some way.

Its a lot more "cost" effective than more random free ticket allocation though that too has its place. And of course by giving the free ticket allocation more to those people that have already put money into the club, everyones happy.

[DaveOfDonny]

Could someone please tell me which game the free tickets are for? Cheers

Any, now the ones that were excluded have passed.

[RobTheRover]

Dave of Donny, just take your ST book or voucher into the ticket office in the 2 weeks before the match you want the free tickets for. You can have any number up to 5. You can even do it on the match day itself if you don't mind a bit of a queue.

[DaveOfDonny]

Cheers Rob 

Which voucher number/letter is it by the way?

Thanks

You don't *HAVE* to, no.

Don't feel the need to hijack a retirement home's day-out just to meet an obligation

I think it's voucher M mate,  but if you just take your ST book they will sort it in the ticket office.

[DaveOfDonny]

Awesome, Thanks!

Sorry Naith but just spoken to the ticket office at the keepmoat and you have to have like for like tickets. ie 5 concessions or 5 junior.

Think thats a bit unfair as I was hoping to bring two or three friends along with me but none of them are 60+ and they would all bring revenue into the club.

Maybe something you could bring up when you see any of the top brass.

Regards

Ray

[DRNaith]

You missed my joke (if you can call it that). 

My point was that you don't HAVE to take anyone.

I won't give up my day job just yet!

 

[knockers]

Bradford exile you got mail

[bradford exile]

Naith..sorry must be my age..I do feel a little let down though. Surely the idea was to put "bums on seats" so long as the people you bring in generate revenue for the club what does it matter. Strange decision for my liking

Knockers...not received mate

I would look at that offer in a different light, rather than as a promotion to put 'bums on seats' maybe you should see it as a reward to the ST holder? Maybe its adding value to your ST and a pat on the back for doing so.

Profits from a pie and and a pint might amount to a £1 or £2 at best, hardly a thank you to the club that's let them watch the game for nothing.

£1 or £2 more than they'd have got if you take into account bringing people that wouldn't have otherwise gone though... Surely the 5 free tickets should be seen as being for STH to bring new people/family members who wouldn't go, rather than bringing people who would've paid for a ticket and gone anyway? Should be seen more as a promotion, rather than reward.

[DonnyBazR0ver]

On the other hand, a ST holder was seen to be selling his 5 free tickets in the KM car park to anyone passing approaching the ticket office for a tenner each.

Now that's not in the spirit either! 

Shame as I thought they may be able to be a little bit flexible. (Don't tell anyone but a youth and an OAP used 2 of my adult tickets!!)
