Guest 'Flow Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 ‘Well fans wishing to go to the game against Rangers this coming Saturday should note that tickets are only on sale until close of play on Friday. Tickets will not be on sale from Fir Park or Ibrox on the day of the game.

The issue of concessionary ages still seems to vary from club to club with Rangers opting for 65 years of age. We still use 60 years.

CoF Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 Think I'll go to this, the good away form has swung it for me. Not that I'm expecting a win but I think we'll put up a good fight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We still use 60 years. That's correct Dave... I think most clubs have it set as 65 which prompted MFC to fall into line a few years ago. However, upon her arrival, Leeann D moved it back to what it had traditionally been (60) and it has remained at that since. In my own personal opinion - A league-wide pricing agreement (which includes things like standardised age limits etc) would be very beneficial. Particularly if the capped price was sensible and reflected the product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmcalpin Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 I personally wouldn't object if our concession threshold was raised to 65. Pension schemes are increasingly adopting 65 as the default retirement, folk are living longer and you can't draw the state pension until 65 shortly to be 66 for men. The trick is to phase it in, giving everyone plenty of warning. Existing beneficiaries shouldn't have the concession taken from them. I think the problem before was that the club introduced it at short notice, with little warning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 People who retire at 60 probably have a chance of a good lifestyle, self sufficient and live a healthy life, having had a great job. Concessions for over 60's should be for those who are getting benefits to help them through like income support or invalidity benefit allowance. Too many over 60's at Fir Park not paying their way yet lording it up in the bar while others struggle to pay their way for my liking.
