I have got 2 tickets for chelsea vs stoke, they're both children's priced tickets as I was going with my friend, however he has pulled out. Will we be refused access if my dad (who's obviously not a child anymore) tries to enter using a child ticket? This sounds like a stupid question, but it doesn't actually say that it's a child ticket on the ticket, plus I want to be 100% before I sell one. Thanks.

May as well give it a go if it's not far for you to travel. But I'd go fully expecting for him to not get in, just so you're not disappointed. I hope he gets in, enjoy the game :)
As far as I know, when you enter the ticket in to the machine at the turnstile it will come up as saying "child ticket" for whoever is supervising at the time. You/he might get lucky and be let off, or they may reject his entry since he will obviously not be a child. As far as I know, you can't upgrade the ticket to adult either (stupid in my opinion, but I guess that's the rules).
So, you can risk it and hope the supervisor is having a good day, or sell the ticket to two children.
I got a season ticket and when u scan any ticket it will either flash green for adult or orange for concession... A concession can be child or disabled or senior so its not obvious what kind of ticket you got. I have never seen anybody give a crap let alone turn someone away. The only place i can think that there might be possibility of being stopped is the East Stand Lower (Family section) as the area is designed for family friendly.
Some people get turned away, I think that's hilarious. Try and cheat the system, don't be upset if you get rumbled. Some get through if the friendly gate bloke isn't paying attention.

Seriously, we'll be fine? Thanks :)
He means well, but you should take almost everything he says as a joke.
It's a pretty solid burn to those from Stoke.
Yeah pretend like you can't read basic English and people will think you are from stoke. they all look older than they are up there. /s
Can the mods please ban this dude form the chelsea sub?
Absolutely not
even though his a cunt, he doesn't deserved to be banned for joking around.
Piss off.
Solid burn, but come on. No need to string him along below.
It shows that it's a concession, but you'll probably be alright. Often get tickets mixed up with my little brother and so mine'll come up as a concession, never had an issue with it.
