[Albion] Checking ID at home games for Season Ticket Holders
- Thread starter Goldstone1976
- Start date
Of course, oh silly me
Yeah they do have something that lets stewards know already and no they're not going to review manually which will free them up to check for bottle tops and flasks!

The senior concession at the club is also 65.
Thanks TB but I was aware of that, 4600 odd in the queue ahead of me though ? I gave my ST up when we decided to emigrate and have been on that waiting list since our return? What I was intimating was bus pass entitlement age has been increasing along with the Waspy women retirement age which unfortunately my wife is one of their number hardest hit by her age, we were expecting her state pension two years ago but still have four years to wait along with the 10 months added to my retirement age.

View attachment 117459 Just in case the question of what light(s) on the turnstile means what comes up again
I checked yesterday when I went through and it was flashing green.

Your state retirement age is 65 years 10 months??
Do you use Gmail?
I do, he doesn't
yes, that's correct, retirement age increases in increments over a couple of years until your/my birthdate increases until 66 becomes the retirement age which of course will increase to 67 and then 68. this will change again in the future until 70/75 will be the eventual retirement age!!!!
I suspect [MENTION=189]Wozza[/MENTION] is going to suggest you use a variation of your email address as his email address so that his emails come to you, using a Gmail quirk.
For example, if your email address is guinness.boy@gmail.com, you could put another . anywhere within that, eg guin.ness.boy@gmai.com and "his" emails would arrive in your inbox along with all your emails.
Not sure you can muck about with the @gmail.com bit.......
Yesterday two 19 year olds in our party were using 65+ concessions as the OAPs were ill. The costs are the same.
However, they could have been asked to prove they were not over 21, but weren't asked to proof same.
Still seems a little random.

As under 21 and over 65 is the same price band of ticket (see the guide to the turnstile lights above) they would be very unlucky to get ID'd. Think this all more aimed at a few individuals persistently using kids season tickets.
I do indeed, but it's actually a + sign, like this:
usualaddress+extraname@gmail.com
I have four Albion accounts all on the same email account with this trick.
That's because he makes it so easy.

I believe you can upgrade a concession a certain number of times a season. Most upgrades would be expected on 'school nights' but also happen when the 'big teams' come down.
I'll be 65 next season and looking forward to my discount.
