God forbid the parents putting a bit of effort in eh :lol: Surely, if not themselves they would have been able to send a family member, friend in their place? I can see why the club did it that way, to at least make whoever wanted one for free show a little commitment in getting it :thumbup:


Yes silly parents and family for working.

Why must I pay for a game when the Management are giving away free tickets? How is that fair to all who have paid? If they give them to kids who cannot afford to pay, then okay but I think this is because of poor management decisions throughout the year and a need for the crowd to look big.

I know a few people from work who got free tickets the other day. Should be an interesting crowd.

Its fare mate because you are a City SUPPORTER hence you support the club by buying a season ticket. The tickets allocated were through the school network to children who potentially could now become the future of our club.

Cannot for the life of me understand how anyone can get upset about free tickets being issued through schools for children. FFS look at the bigger picture. Personally i would be more than happy for every empty seat at every game to be given free to a child. :sad7:

Tickets weren't only issued to schools, I know this for a fact.

These tickets are going to kids.

If some of them enjoy it and want to come back then the club benefits for the future.

I fully applaud the club for doing this and hope they continue it next season too.

These days with so many of our fans it's 'me, me, me' , rather than just backing the club.


Well said mate
People were moaning on here the other day people not turning up
They give young potential fans free tickets the last game of the season and they have shit from it
Who knows they might enjoy today and want to come a lot next year
Pathetic to say the least
I'm a season ticket holder and I'm not bothered that they asked them
Good thing IMO
People like to moan at the club whatever they do good or bad


Well said both. These kids could be future City fans, rather than Prem fans. Great initiative by the club. Well done CCFC :bluescarf:
