Bournemouth tickets on sale from Wednesday 1st February

Has anyone’s Bournemouth ticket arrived that bought an U21. If so has it arrived as a concession?
 
I think the home club just send all tickets to the away team as adults. They have to really as they’ve no way of knowing in advance how many of each category they’re going to sell. Then it’s up to the away team if they want to mark them as concessions. City did have a spell where they’d just write ‘child’ or whatever in pen on the ticket but they seem to have got bored with that. Some have two tear off stubs with the adult bit on the end. So they could tear that off before issuing them, just leaving the concession stub. But they seem to have gone a bit out of fashion to.
 
All tickets are marked adult. Junior tickets have a bar code strip on one end of the ticket removed and adult tickets have bar codes on both ends of the tickets. I’ve no idea about U21.
 
Hi, does anyone know of 2 spare travel spaces for Bournemouth on Saturday from Manchester please?
 
City fan since I knew what football was way back in the late 1950’s and passionately supported them through all that followed. I moved to Bournemouth for love in 2002, about the time that Bournemouth almost went out of existence. For the next few years, the ground capacity was 25% less than now, and there was no stand at the south end. They have done brilliantly to climb through the levels to get to the Premier League twice in the last decade, and they are investing in an academy that will be crucial to their future, equal to many in the Premier League. I am no fan, but as a local resident I can see how they are trying their best, they could be the next Brighton, who were without a ground and close to bankruptcy not long ago.

So I would just like to remind my fellow City fans how close we (City) were to going out of existence not so many years ago. It is frustrating for me that my grandkids can’t get tickets for Bournemouth home games, except for occasional Youth games, friendlies and Carabao or FA Cup games. They are desperate to see Premier League football, and I can’t get a ticket in my home town to watch City on Saturday either. So frustrating! Please consider what it is like for clubs like Bournemouth now, and remember the bleak days of the 1990s before moaning about the lack of away tickets. The local catchment area has around half-a million people, but because there is no expectation of success, the fan-base grows slowly.

My lad bought an under 21, and no its just arrived as an adult ticket. This happens for an awful lot of away games I've noticed, not that I'm complaining

That’ll be the clubs we travel to having different age policies. We might offer 18-21 tickets but other clubs might just have Under18, 18-65 and Over65 so that’s all it’ll say on their tickets.

Some look all the same like Newcastle away. The ticket site allowed you to change an adult to a junior and you could use them as there was no concession light. £5 in, or £1 in the LC. If you are buying different categories and they all look the same you know the is an easy loophole. Sadly the site stopped allowing that when Seat Geek got involved, but hundreds did it, and you still got the points. I didn't of course :)
