RedWillie Posted 23 August, 2023 Share Posted 23 August, 2023 (edited) It won't be an issue at all. Edited 23 August, 2023 by RedWillie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pamplemousse Posted 23 August, 2023 Share Posted 23 August, 2023 Yeah there will be no problem at all. Will only be an issue if it's a discount ticket for the different age bands (i.e. under 25 or over 65) but not sure if they check that at all.

Yes they do check - when you've gone through the turnstile you will see a steward standing there. Once through (and out of the way) turn around and look towards the top of the turnstile you just came through, and as folk come through from outside you will see 3 coloured lights blinking they have a sequence that indicates the age category of ticket that has just been scanned. So if you have a full adult ticket being used by a mate who has been swapped in no issue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gandalf Posted 24 August, 2023 Share Posted 24 August, 2023 Arsenal are now having owners picture on season tickets. I heard Brighton may be doing this as well. Makes sharing a ticket difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My brother said his kid can't come to QPR so instead I'm treating the missus and she insisted I got a new ticket reissued (and paid the difference) and my brother was saying "they don't check". For once I was glad to listen to the missus because she would not have been impressed being nabbed by security! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marsdinho Posted 25 August, 2023 Share Posted 25 August, 2023 Ive been a few times using my mates sons ticket, we were aware of the lights on the turnstile, so as you walk through just start chatting to the steward as if you've known them years. They are distracted easily! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cat Posted 25 August, 2023 Share Posted 25 August, 2023 In the Family Stand the lights all went green so there was no way of distinguishing between tickets. I know this because I stood and watched a few times and saw kids and adults all come through with no difference. One of my mates often gave his kids season tickets to other mates and they always got in. Whether that's different in other stands I'm not sure.
