Trying to buy 3 tickets for the family stand; 2 adults and an under 7. I bizzarely get these two errors when I go to check out; - There are errors on the page
Adults, Over 65's and 18-21YR/Students cannot buy tickets in the family blocks without an accompanying under 13/Under 7.
Under 13s/Under 7s cannot buy tickets in the family blocks without an accompanying Adult, Over 65, or 18-21YR/Student. - List item 2
- List item 3
Does anyone know a fix for this?

From the error code it looks like you need to purchase another child's ticket.

I had the same problem on line, I did it on the telephone in the end. The lady said they had a problem with it, that was over a month ago though

I had this for the Leicester game when I bought 1x Adult and 2x under 13.
As I could not be arsed to phone up or collect as I tend to print at home I got round it by buying a 1x ticket for 18 yr old.

I see for the Chesterfield game,block 22 family section has so far sold 37 tickets ! Block 23 nowhere near half full,i know it doesn't matter for Saturday,but i still think moving the family area was a big mistake.

Not a bad idea, but you'd think they could provide something a bit healthier than "a roll, juice, sweets, chocolate bar and toy"

I give up. Here I am battling for the health and welfare of the poor little urchins of the England/Wales border badlands like some yellow clad Jamie Oliver, and all you can do is mock.

Not the best idea in the world to move the family area to the North Stand. Little fans should be kept away from areas where rival supporters goad each other and possibly more. Not a great move.

Didn't see any of that myself despite being in some of the closest seats to the half way line in the family stand.
I think it is sufficiently away from the away fans and hopefully they will be moving to the temporary stand in the near future.
The club have managed to create a nice den under the North Stand with kids able to do crafting and other bits and pieces before the game. Good work from the club.

Not that it impacts me, but I think the South Stand is safer and the children get to see the substitutes/players etc warming up. Just a feels they're a bit out of the way in the North Stand,whereas, I actually feel they should feel part of it.

Out of curiosity,how many kids were in the "den" and what time were they in there from ? As for the temporary stand,the only time away fans will get to use it(if ever),is when they are in small numbers,small numbers means less chance of aggro,Chesterfield had to many fans for the temp stand.

How's that work then, as for swindon it will be full of their fans, with a smaller number in the north stand with oxford getting more of the centre block .

Just a bit of posturing and the usual w*nker signs between home and away yesterday but it can be worse sometimes and (in my opinion) kids would be better off over the other side of the ground because if it does kick off they could potentially be frightened off going again.

The way i understand it for the scum game the temporary stand will be HOME fans. Pretty sure TVP wont let scum fans in 2 different stands.

I think that's the whole idea, and why the family stand has been moved, and why centre block in the north have been made available when not before, because on big games when the away fans normally filled those seats, they will now be accommodated in the fence stand. Also why the score board is not being talked about going back where it was as, away fans will be using the turnstiles and facilities under that corner of the north stand.

Block 25 was available for 90% of games last season(including the scum)the only difference is this season is that its available for S/Ts. Segregation in the seats is immaterial,its the segregation under the North stand that matters,IF home fans were to get blocks 26/27 the only access would still be through the steps in block 25,you have to ask hundreds of people to stand up to get to your seats,if a fire broke out you would never get to the exits,we would never get a safety certificate for home fans in the North without access to the emergency exits behind 26/27 which you wouldnt have. So to repeat myself,if we have a temp stand for the scum it will be HOME fans only.

It says extra fans for the Swindon games. It says moving away fans behind the goal. It doesnt say "MOVING AWAY FANS BEHIND THE GOAL FOR THE SWINDON GAME. Have you ever actually been in the North stand ? Well i sit in block 25 the nearest to the away fans,as you come down the steps,to your left are the toilets then a PERMANENT segregation wall. The concourse is blocked off top to bottom,are you really suggesting that for the scum game the club will spend loads of money knocking down this barrier,then after the game building it again ? Sheff united,knock it down,Bolton,knock it down,Millwall knock it down. Not to mention erecting more segregation behind the one you have knocked down,or are you suggesting we share the concourse with the scum fans ?

Uhh that's exactly what it says, "will come in useful for the derby with swindon" "by moving away fans behind the goal, it will allow extra room in the north stand for home fans".
Maybe it's me reading it wrong but it's several times it been mentioned in the press, and ties in with the decision to move the family stand, and sell more north stand seats. With the capacity going up, can we still give enough away seats to meet the away requirement of we didn't have away fans in the temp stand ?

Uhh,NO IT DOESN'T SAY WILL COME IN USEFUL FOR THE DERBY WITH SWINDON IT WILL ALLOW EXTRA ROOM IN THE NORTH STAND FOR HOME FANS. It says "the extra capacity will only come in useful for a few games like the derby against Swindon" Then in a new paragraph (when i went to school you started a new paragraph when starting a new subject" "Eales would like to increase the atmosphere by moving away fans to the new stand" 2 different paragraphs,2 different subjects. Try looking at a plan of the North stand,used to one segregation barrier in between the fans,fans used to shout abuse,thrown pints of p*ss over the top etc,it came to a head when Villa kicked the door down and mayhem ensued. After that the club built 2 PERMANENT barriers,one between 25/26 one between 26/27 so the area behind block 26 is a "dead zone" no toilets no food outlets,the gate is locked to the stairs. For big games the home side use block 26,but the access is through block 25,for big away fans following they can have block 26 but access is through block 27. Home fans CANNOT have block 27 without moving 2 lots of segregation under the stand. If all away fans are behind the goal,home fans will access the North stand.through the away turnstiles.

Did you miss the bit where I said maybe I read it wrong, so any need for ur sarcastic capitals ?
So why can't the home fans have block 26. Like away fans do on big games. And the swindon fans that would have been it in go in the temp stand ? No one has said about home fans going in 27! 1 block is around 700 fans the temp stand is around 700

Not picking sides here, but until the underneath of the North stand has two more segregation barriers built, the club are limited on what they can do in the stands.

That's the thing though, I don't think it means they have to go past the segregation. It just means Oufc fans would be in 26 rather than Swindon

I don't care if I'm right, either way it means more fans in the ground and a better atmosphere. Just it seems to work with everything else that's been done for it to be away fans. Same as if u keep swapping use, u got to set up in the areas in both corners so that fans can get to the turnstiles and toilets under which ever stand is using it rather than just 1. Will still be a massive improvement on looking at a fence, but if I had the choice of stick 700 Oufc fans in the best block in the house, or a shit 6 row temp stand I know where I'd choose. Have to see how thu goes, and how accommodating our custodian really is
