I am soon to become a pensioner, but do you think they will give me a concession on my platinum tickets.
No way. But do you hear me complaining? 

suck it up - your super payout and your $1 pensioner train fare from the northern part of sydney will more than cover the difference

 

[dibo]

You lot don't know when you are well off.
When I was a boy it used to cost a shilling to get into North Sydney oval and an extra sixpence if you wanted an area with seats. A bloody fortune in those days.
I used to have to collect soft drink bottles to get a bus fare home.
You kids these days get it easy and you complain about a few dollars.

first thing in the morning you had to lick the road clean, you had to walk uphill both ways to school and your father used to thrash you to sleep with a broken bottle and you loved it...

Bloody cheek .... $2.50 and he's got to wait until he's 60. The soon to be superannuants union will have you son! 

 

[FFC Mariner]

Wait till they raise the pension age to 70 in return for higher allowances.

Then the whining will start.

Worse than farmers those pensioners.

Ursus will need all the extra money he can get to pay for that hip replacement

Ursus - you climbed the alps to get to school, yes??

And got up an hour before I went to bed.

Then had to fight Hannibal and his army coming home from school singlehandly

With nothing but his bare hands, only to find out he had to go out and hunt his own dinner when he got home.

 

[Ursus]

Enough, I give up. 

I wish the season would hurry up and begin.

 

[marconigirl]

I haven't been able to get on here for a while.

If I bought a ticket in bay 16 (other people I would normally sit with have already bought tickets) Would it be possible to move around once we are in the bay? Or will I sit next to random people (possibly knowing them) for the whole year!?!?

Also as a student living out of home I find $190 to be pretty pricey, and yes there is the online payment, but that way you have to pay an extra $12... In other words it will now cost over $200... Kinda sucky...
(And don't you go saying "Oh it is only $12"... When you don't have a full time job, $12 is quite a lot... )

"it's a deal, it's a steal, it's the sale of the f**king century"!

In fact, f**k it Nick, I think i'll keep it.

i think the "who we are" on the home page will need to be changed this season:

To become a Marinator, all you have to do is stand with the group behind the goals, wear yellow, and join in the chanting and singing. There are no fees or charges, just stand with us and have fun!

 

[adz]

Yeah good point although you still had to buy a ticket to get in the ground before, which is a fee/charge yeh? No fees or charges over your Mariners membership?

Only if you believe you have to be in Bay 16 to be a Marinator. Which given that many don't and won't it clearly is not so!  irate:

 

[Omni]

Hope not! I'm in that "never will be" boat - except for that PSC Final...

 

[Jeff (LouMacari)]

Yeah, that 'who we are..' was penned back in the day and does need to be updated.
