Its my birthday in December :rover: and i got an email from Rovers saying i could have a free ticket to any match this month, so i thought you dont get anything free :rock: , and with having a season ticket i thought there must be some kind of reduced ticket, but i duly contacted the ticket office and sure enough i got a ticket for the boxing day match worth £25, 2 seats behind me for my lad, we will now have a great day out.

so well done Rovers for a change. Give em praise when its due.

To be fair the empty seats aren't earning them any money and if you buy something in the shop or get some grub at half time then they've made some extra dosh at basically no extra cost.

Still, it's a gesture many clubs don't offer so can't complain. Hope you and your boy have a good day out!

My birthday is 9th March (genuinely) .... reckon I'll get a free ticket for that one???

yes and you have to collect it under police escort between 4.30am and 5.30am on the day of the match having got on a coach in Norwich.Please take your seat no later than 6.30am.

You still coming??

I got 2 free ones yesterday - son had an email because it was his birthday and when I went in I asked about my husband too who has his birthday on christmas day and they said yes. Mind you, it still cost me a fortune to buy tickets for daughter and grandson coming from Germany, son and daughter-in-law coming from Korea and other daughter and future son-in-law coming from the wilds of Salford

Let's hope it wasn't their flight tickets you were paying for! ;)

fortunately not although the food bills could be through the roof. And you can imagine the overcrowding when we also have younger sons girlfriend arriving too. Still it'll boost rovers Boxing Day support, although much to his papi's distress our grandson has asked for a bayern shirt for Christmas. Papi's supports Nürnberg and is trying to persuade Tobias to do so too, but peer pressure and success are a mighty pull to a 5 year old

There comes a time when you just have to just explain, subtly, that it's a preordained thing over which neither of you have any control.

"Papi, I really like Bayern, can I have a shirt for Christmas"

"Sorry son, you're a Nürnberg supporter."

Of course it helps if it's their home town and/or you can take them to matches.

Just buy him a Rovers kit and tell him to get his priorities right.

Had an email from Rovers today regarding my forthcoming birthday. No ticket offer but 15% off merchandise and/or a free pint in Blues when you buy 2 meals. Maybe they've stopped the free tickets, although it looks like part of the email is possibly missing.

At least they acknowledge it so fair play to the club.
