Went to the game this afternoon with my son who has a junior season ticket. 'Get into all home and away games '. Not at Rochdale. They rufused to accept my sons ticket saying they don't sign up to that scheme. But I'm sure Rochdale juniors wil get into ours when they play. I had to get £5 from my dad to pass to my son as I was already through the turn style. We then saw another lad being refused entry. i phoned the hornets twice this week so see if we had to show the season ticket to get a ticket but there never any answer. Poorly run, lm sorry to say. Fax need to check which clubs are part of this scheme before selling the season ticket as entry to all games. Glad we won though

Lets hope Halifax return the favour!

Faxlore, it seems to me Clubs are free to make their own choices on Admission fees, I'm not sure what the Concession rules are at Fax, but here at Leigh a Concession is 65 years, yet next week when we play Wigan, a Concession is 60 years.

I blame Rob Worrincy. Seeing as he had a decent game, got to find something.

Cracking win, and I don't have a problem with a club setting its own rules, I don't buy a season ticket anymore either, I'd rather pay my way. Rochdale are probably skint like the rest of us, the town isn't exactly thriving, and they will lose kids to City and MUFC left, right and centre. Season tickets are still a good deal for kids, if pennies are tight.

I couldn't agree more, the junior season tickets are sold with free entry to all away games. I have emailed Rochdale hornets, copied to our club. It's not the £5 that bothers me, it's the principle of the thing. Rochdale junior season tickets are valid for free entry at all other grounds that they will visit this season.

I had the pleasure of the Rochdale "dining experience" today. That was Ok, but the downside was having to sit with the Hornets supporters to watch the game. We possibly had a slight "rub of the green" with the ref (2 sin bins), but there were numerous calls of "are you going to tell us what the penalty was for ref" - which was a bit strange given that he'd given the appropriate signal as he blew the whistle for the penalty. The best one was when they knocked on and a Rochdale player in an offside position picked up the ball - they really didn't have a clue why it was a penalty. They really didn't like our physio being on the pitch so much, but tbh it did get a bit daft how much time he was running round (to the extent that the 4th official eventually had a word with him).

Back to the OP. Junior ST's have always been a bit of a problem. My lad is past that now, but I remember getting into the Dewsbury ground only to find that they wouldn't let him into the ground without getting a ticket at the other side of the ground. He had to walk round the outside of the ground, while I had to get past the steward protecting the (as yet closed) new terracing, and through the players tunnel to get to meet him at their ticket office. Not great for my lad, but an experience for me!

Btw, obviously Fax (and all the other Championship clubs) should stop the junior season ticket "swap" when Rochdale come to town.

Steve I agree, junior season tickets are always sold as free in to all away games. Only found out by the fluke of asking if Leah could go in my turnstile with her ticket. Hope Halifax return the favour.

Don't email Rochdale.

Complain to the RFL.

I have brought this subject up before and warned people.Bradford charged my son £12 last season despite being a s/t holder.

You are lucky that they let Juniors in at all! After all, I presume that Spotland is classed as a Nightclub? Charging £4 for a pint of Guinness from a surge can they must be .

There were lots of moaning at bar(particularly Huddshay ) £4.20 for San Miguel was a bit steep though.

A pint and small coke was 6.00 odd
Halifax is 6 .10 for 2 pints
