Sure I seen somewhere that you should take photo ID with you tomorrow?

Did I imagine this or is it right as my driving license is away at the DVLA getting updated

I hope not!

I read you may be asked for photo id with Vacc/test proof ... but also heard that was just going to be a random sample of fans at grounds around the country...

You do need photo ID

From BBC:

Burnley
No mandatory Covid-19 checks, but Burnley will follow the current Premier League guidelines. Supporters are being encouraged to wear face coverings and bring photo ID with them to the stadium.

"Encouraged"

What could possibly go wrong.

Photo ID for what reason ?......I know what i look like.

What is photo ID going to prove......there’s no pictures on season cards or tickets???
Please explain?

Photo ID will be interesting if you're wearing a mask.

Season tickets have the name on, so with photo ID you can check the person using the card is the same person as the name on the card.
I presume this means being able to use someone else's season ticket as long as you are in the same age category is now not allowed? Strange one to bring this in now. Why not in the past? Why does it even matter?

Where did you see that? I haven't had any information about photo ID being required and there is nothing on the official club site. I shall be travelling up from Solihull tomorrow without phot ID and will be extremely naffed off if I get admission refused to my first game since last February!

I’m taking a bottle of P1ss with me just in case

There is something on the official website:

In line with normal ticketing policy we would ask that all supporters bring some form of photo ID with them on matchday (drivers licence, work ID, student ID or blue badge).

Posted at the same time as you!

Surely this doesn’t include kids?

Actually reading that link, is this only for matchday tickets or including STH?

No points

Photo was out of date by a month no letter to let me know

Annoys me because folk that haven’t a clue make comments that scare folk and I genuinely think they get a kick out of it

Only form of photo ID I have is a passport.

Always dreamed of needing a passport to go somewhere to watch Burnley play one day- never thought I'd need it 3 miles from my own house

In other words it is not a new requirement but something that has been around for years - and how many people have ever been asked to show a photo ID? I certainly have never been asked to prove I am me when presenting my season ticket which is a good job as I rarely travel with anything like that when travelling from Solihull.
