Im disabled and under the rules would qualify for a free carer to help me if needed. But i wont buy a SC because most games i couldnt attend because im fucking not well. Im not fucking able too so i pick games and pay full price.
But what i dont begrudge is some young kid getting a disabled SC and his mother looking after him. Those of you that find that wrong are in my opinion cunts of the very highest order and are an embarrasement to our support.
I fucking despair i really do.
Did you just read the article or the posts in this thread?

It's somewhat depressing that this thread has now reached 15 pages, with the associated posts that involves, and people are still somehow completely missing the point. This has nothing to do with disability. The rule change is about equality. It is a rule change which now means all under 14 year olds, and their guardians, are treated equally. It just so happens that, in order to treat them all equally, a knock on effect is that carers for disabled children under the age of 14, who used to get a free ticket, now do not. Where the disabled person is over 14 then the situation is assessed on a case by case basis and this rule will not change that. In many of those cases the carer will indeed go for free. The reasoning is clear, and sound, 14 year olds need a guardian, and that guardian needs to pay for their ticket. It doesn't matter what the abilities of the udner 14 year old are, they will ALL need a guardian, and they will ALL be treated identically.ban-mcfc said:Rascal said:Some of the posts on this thread are absolutly fucking awful and you ***** posting the stuff make me fucking ashamed to be a blue.

Its not everyone mate, its just that there will be cases where people are taking advantage.
In most situations its genuine and the carers should go free but theres always the odd few trying to get a freebie that ruin it.
