Kids pay seperate

[Stonebridge Red]

Why is it that kids always have to pay at a seperate entrance to Adults, doesnt exactly reduce queues or anything does it?

Why do you think trainstations in London have lot's of those electronic gate things. The more entrances you have the smaller the queues are. Plus it's less work on the people in the turnstiles because instead of dealing with 800+ people a match they deal with just 400

The amount of money taken on the gate equates to the number of clicks on the turnstile multpiplied by the admission price. This will only work if you have a single admission price on each gate.

I can understand parents worries about being seperated from their children (especially young girls) in this day and age.

It seems as though G & N are still using the same old turnstiles that I went through as a lad in the late 1950's early 1960's!!!

I raised this issue with the club several years ago, my daughter goes through the same turnstile as me for league matches as she is a junior Fleet member and we both go through the season ticket turnstiles but for cup matches we have to pay and cannot use the same turnstiles.

I didn't actually get a reply from the club but the solution they seem to have adopted, and so far it has worked very well, is to simply lose away in every cup at the earliest opportunity. No home cup games no problem. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/applaus.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/applaus.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/applaus.gif" alt="" />

I still go through that entrance and they do look at me as if to say "what you doing in this one" but I'm told 17 is where the adult fayre begins, so I'm going to make the most of paying £6 for two more months!
