We don't know what the exact process would be as yet but we discussed potential scenarios and my best guess at the moment is that IF there's a ballot and you were successful, if the club knew you always had a carer then you'd have to get a second ticket but I'd guess you'd have to give the name of the individual prior to attending. Worst case would be the carer having to give details at the ground. Another one to check tonight.Haven’t had time to read the full thread so sorry if this has been posted elsewhere but what happens to my complimentary carer ticket that has my name on it and not the person who comes with me as this changes on an ad hoc basis
I thought a licence is now only valid for 10 years. I have been out of the country for 9 years and my UK licence expired. I use my US licence to drive when back overSo no passport and had a clean driving licence since 1975 so never needed a plastic one means you are screwed.
The idea was floated early on before lockdown that they might stop over 70s attending.Your age has got nothing whatsoever to do with the club. If you are up for attending matches that means you have evaluated the potential risk, you are happy with it and so you should have the same chance to go as anyone else who has opted in.

Because it's a lot more people I'd guess. You might get 50-100 people turning up to a pub over a period of time so it's not the most difficult task to get them to leave a number but you wouldn't want 13,000 people turning up at the gate at quarter to three who we have to collect contact details from. I think we can agree that tickets will be scarce and people should use them if they're lucky enough to get them. I don't particularly have a problem with people passing them on, as that's better than the ticket not being used. But people will have to accept they'll have to provide their contact details in advance of arriving at the ground.
The price of getting people in stadiums is that the government, PL and SGSA will insist that clubs know exactly who's in the stadium and how to contact them if required. If they can't then it's quite possible it'll mean no fans at all are admitted.
Please let's not go down the ballot path, many people like myself attend with families, friends etc,We don't know what the exact process would be as yet but we discussed potential scenarios and my best guess at the moment is that IF there's a ballot and you were successful, if the club knew you always had a carer then you'd have to get a second ticket but I'd guess you'd have to give the name of the individual prior to attending.

I understand a long while back it was suggested there was a one off amnesty where everyone who owned a card that wasn't theirs could take ownership with Man citys approval as a fresh start type initiative. It wouldn't solve all the issues but it would make it simpler for the people who actually own the CS to have a legit relationship with the club without the worry of being denied admission to the ground etc or if there are incidents caught on CCTV at the 'dodgy seat' being hauled up for something they didn't do as they m8- friend-mum etc was there for that match. Photo ID on cards might stop that random use by others but only if it was implemented so lets see whats proposed I'm 100% confident Colin and Co will put a coherent case for the best possible solutionI have absolutely no idea what the club has planned as yet so there's no point in giving me shit. I hope they'd have some flexibility and I promise I'll make the point tomorrow. But if they say photo ID is an absolute requirement than you'll have to have some if you want entry to a restricted game.

maybe you should of contacted the club when it first occured ?
Some people still have the old style paper licence. If they haven't moved house or had any driving endorsements in the last 20 years (i think it is now) then they haven't needed to apply for the plastic ones which do expire after 10 years. There's a few million in this situation apparently.I thought a licence is now only valid for 10 years. I have been out of the country for 9 years and my UK licence expired.

I'm over 70, haven't got a heart condition, haven't got any form of diabetes, and haven't any serious medical conditions. Anyone with all or some of these conditions in their 50s/60s would be allowed in. Would need a bit more thinking before the Government make that decision. Hopefully!
Every city fan watching us over the last 20 years has some form of a medical condition

If you haven't got a heart condition from watching City over an extended period, you can't really be a fan. ;-)I'm over 70, haven't got a heart condition, haven't got any form of diabetes, and haven't any serious medical conditions.
