The decision was taken following a series of complaints from pensioners who have attended matches at Headingley in recent weeks. Last season, pensioners paid just £6 on the gate to watch the county. However, because the club do not currently offer any concession to retired supporters who become full members of the club, it was decided to also scrap the reduction on the gate for pensioners resulting in an increase from £6 to £15 per game.
