It's the cost of an adult match day ticket - 1/19th of the junior ticket + £5 admin charge.

I've seen it where it's been more expensive than actually buying a ticket.

Probably the cost of an adult ticket minus the cost of a junior ticket

Nothing like that I'm afraid - as per my post above, it's less 1/19th of the junior season ticket and then another £5 is taken as an admin charge.

Example, if in Longside Upper for a Cat A game


You'd pay £60 plus £5 admin which is £65 but would then get £6 knocked off which is a nineteenth of a kids season ticket in there. So you would pay £59.

Not necessarily true.

I upgraded an U18 ticket to an adult and it cost me full price. The ticket office were less than helpful (not often I can say that) but in this instance they were utterly diabolical in handling the situation as well as a follow up email.

Hoping it’s easier/cheaper to upgrade if necessary next season - otherwise I might just risk using the U18 ticket for an adult.

Apologies......I assumed the question was in relation to a season ticket upgrade. I have tried to upgrade a junior ticket to a full adult ticket before and any saving was pointless but at least I was guaranteed the seat that I wanted. I believe most folk don't bother upgrading individual match tickets these days and just get in as a junior.

I'm not surprised they do given the charges for upgrading

if your buying a kids ticket off someone in the first place it becomes very costly.

I have 2x adult junior season tickets that cannot be used for the City game so looking at upgrading them to adult tickets for friends is why I’m asking thanks all

Just use it without changing it they dont even check
