Nine-hours old baby becomes world's youngest season ticket holder - to stop her following Man Utd

A baby has become the youngest season ticket holder in the WORLD after her grandad bought her one when she was just nine hours old. Georgia Wilson was born at 12.22am on September 27 and just hours after being born - she was a season ticker holder for football club Blackburn Rovers.

Her grandad Andy Maxfield, 53, decided to buy her one as he and her mum Kathryn, 29, are Blackburn fans but her dad Sean is a Manchester United fan. So to help her "grow up correctly" he decided to purchase one for Georgia just hours after she was born, but he didn't tell her parents until it arrived.

At the time, Andy didn't realise that Georgia may be the youngest season ticker holder but said he would have 'bought her one earlier if the ticket office was open earlier.' He said: "It's good but I do think it's an easy record to break because if someone was born at 2pm then they can just go and break the record.
