There are a few stereotypical comments made about senior citizens... but what defines a senior citizen? or a pensioner for that matter?

Pensioner is easier... someone who receives a pension perhaps?... how about a private pension at 50? or a widows pension at 30? or is it just a state pension [or state pension age] which seems to move the closer you get to it.

Senior citizen is a difficult one... to my kids I have always been a senior citizen as they are to their kids.. lets remember that some great out of the box thinking has been done by "senior citizens" possibly because their peer group is so small they dont have to impress them with smart remarks to climb the social ladder. Their social group is small enough for them not to have to follow the pack in order to be recognised or accepted.

I am retired, I have been for some time but then Im a radical pensioner/senior citizen.

 

The club have defined it in their reduced pay on the day price.

Keep up.

 

There is a reduction in the pay on the day price but not in the ST.

 

This makes it dearer for me to get a ST than to pay on the day.

 

The thought of watching the current team doesnt inspire me much to be honest, but if I had a ST I'd probably make the effort. Last season I probably wouldnt have gone to many games after New Year if I hadnt already paid, as the football was awful.

IMO the standard of play doesnt warrant a price of much over £10. Its only my love for the club thats kept me going. This is one of the worst squads in over 50 years.

 

After tonight I see your rite,rate poor match :)

Why stop at pensioners?

 

Some venues offer reductions for the 'unwaged' as well. Just bring your UB40 (or whatever it is these days) or pension book (or whatever you get these days) to get your discount.

 

Or is that too radical?

 

UB40 at the Vale .How many more Brummies do we need ?:shifty:
