I'm a Blue Member with over 3000 points so went down to get my ticket today. For every other match this season I have been able to purchase a ticket each for my 2 kids at the same time as they are City Kicks members, and that is the standard procedure advised by City. We always purchase in the Family stand, my lads are 14 and 10. Today I was told I could only have a ticket for one of them, as the structure had changed for this game??? No notification of this? I managed to get my ticket and 1 for my lad, my other lad would have to wait until Thursday , when he has enough points.
Fortunately, a fellow Blue member at the next counter offered to buy a ticket for my lad as each blue member can buy for one child, regardless of points. To be fair, the lad behind the counter could have not allowed this, but he was OK with it, said the decision was out of his hands.
I wouldn't have fancied going home and telling one of my lads he couldnt go. I appreciate that the points system should work according to number of points but don't have a system that we stick to all season, and then change it without notification, especially when they can see from the system that I always bring my 2 lads. I'm hardly going to bring a red instead am I , so why change the rules now?
