    The £21 seats in the North are for teenagers, to mitigate for the fact that teenagers suffer most from the changes. Just for the record, the Allams haven't come up with any of these new plans.

    QUESTION - Will individual match day tickets be available for all areas of ground or just west upper? Seems a daft question but with these ****ers assume nothing

    **** me, that makes it worse. Here's an idea, cut the prices across the board by 25% and let everyone stay where they are. It's not ****ing rocket science and would tempt others back

    This is a train wreck. I hope you told them as much.

    Who have? Surely people working for the allams? Have they just ticked them off? Bit misleading having a picture of ehab in the hdm.

    One of the reasons the new system is being implemented, is to counter the fact that 15-20% of the people attending on kids passes are actually adults.

    For a start, anyone in a group of 4 or 5 pass holders tried moving seat? Unless the club has had a radical overhaul of the way people can move/choose seats this is never going to work in a million ****ing years. This is a major upheaval of thousands of fans and I can't see it working.

    Teenager prices are a ****ing insult. The club may as well just say **** off no teenagers allowed, unless they go **** off and sit on their own somewhere of course. Even then, £21 a month is beyond practically any teenager who doesn't get mummy and daddy to pay for it. The atmosphere culling has just stepped up another notch.

    And how is this supposed to stop that from happening? Will our new Oyster cards have a DNA sample or iris photo on them and we'll have to give the turnstiles a blood test to get in?

    Or will adults continue turning up with a child card?

    will we be able to keep our existing seat if in the South Stand for example? I've had my seat since we moved to the KC and I quite like it!

    There are no child cards, the cost of the seat is the same whoever sits in it.

    There's no such thing as a child card in most of the ground. Is the rather unsatisfactory answer.

    According to my calculations a family of three, one adult and two children under 10 in the South Stand will be paying £756 a year. This season they paid £561. A family of three with 1 adult and 2 children aged between 11 and 15 will be paying and extra £75. It would be a lot more expensive for a family of four 1 adult and three children, either age group. It would be slightly cheaper for a family of four, 2 adults 2 children.

    I have understood the scheme correctly.

    That's what happens when you implement a piss poor scheme AND get rid of turnstile staff and stewards

    Remember to stick your £2 booking fee on top of the membership price...

    This will now probably be my last season. I take two nephews so I don't pay for their tickets. Meaning massive saving for me. A price 10x higher for them. Their parents probably won't pay that meaning I have to go on my own. That would be boring. Sad day for me. :(

    A child doesn't go on his own, he goes with an adult, who'll now also be paying £252, so together they'll still be paying less. Obviously, if one adult takes ten kids, then he's screwed, but the club reckon the vast majority will be better off.

    If the adult takes 2 children they will be worse off.

    From the city website:
    Our new Membership Scheme is also aimed at improving the matchday atmosphere inside the KC, enhancing noise levels from a packed-out lower bowl, and we ask supporters to note that Memberships will not be available in the Upper Tier of the West Stand, with that area of the ground only available for match-by-match ticket buyers for high-demand fixtures.
    Two points:
    1. Nothing in there about this applying only if we fail to get promotion,
    2. No way I'm sitting with common people.
