Hi guys, hopefully a good game today.

I have a child's season ticket as my son cannot go anymore can I give this to my mate to use (adult) and what checks are made? If. It can I bring my nephew instead?

Any help is appreciated

No-one's likely to realise. The only two ways they'll know are:
1) If a steward were to look at the ticket which they normally don't.
2) A child ticket causes two small lights rather than one to go on when you swipe at at the turnstile (it might be one light rather than two a can't remember). However the light is so obscurely positioned that the stewards can't really see it and will be busy searching bags anyway.

So basically you'll probably be fine. Probably. I've never tried it mind you but I can't see there being a problem. Probably.

Talk to the ticket office rather than on here as tickets can be upgraded. Random checks are made and season tickets do get confiscated for misuse. But more importantly you would be cheating the club. If loads did this would effect player budgets etc.

Cheating the club? Do you know how expensive tickets are anyway!!

But yeh I suppose trying it isn't risk free and you might be able to upgrade but not sure about on the day!

Yeah you're right I will just get them upgraded versus the risk of getting them confiscated!

Enjoy the game

Someone stands inside by turnstiles checking colour of lights so your adult mate may well get caught out. Can use the ticket if you pay for an upgrade. If your nephew is under 16 he will be able to use with no problems

The checking is very lax indeed, but you will ultimately get caught. Call the club and see if they will upgrade it to an adult STH. Also note that you can upgrade the ticket to adult for 3 games this season legitimately as well.
