Bloody hell.  I had to pay for Josh this season as he turned 11 in November, so we won't benefit from the extra year this time either.
our lad is 11 in March so the same for us.

There's every possibility we could be a Championship team next season, and for that reason I'll definatley be renewing.

Some fucker told me 60 was the age for a fogey concession - it's fucking 65.

I still got 20 years until then. How many more promotions, relegations, administrations, takeovers and embargoes can we manage in those years?

Last season was 65, but 60 for renewal purposes - so I guess it half changed last year.

It's always been a bit of an odd one. Seems to vary from club to club. 65 makes more sense given that this is considered pensionable age and people are likely to still be working between 60 and 65 anyway. Appreciate that the change effects will be a bit annoyed but I highly doubt it would stop many attending.

65 is only state pension age for approx another 3 years, when it starts to rachet up.  Many people, for example women retire at 60 and live on a modest state pension....if they've been budgeting for a concessionary price, it's likely they'll be driven away....might only be relatively small numbers, but our crowds are low for a reason, and decisions which needlessly put impediments in the way of attendance don't help.

in Reg's world everything is the Tories fault. Even Saint Blair creaming in millions is too, the nasty champagne socialist.

Don't think Reg mentioned the Tories in his post? Just because the Tories, all Tories, are selfish cunts who are the biggest load of self servers going, doesn't mean everything is their fault.
