New ticket system ?

Post by GThornton » 11 Feb 2018, 19:13

What's your view on the new season ticket system for getting into the ground ?
Some didn't make it in in time.

It's not the fastest system that's for sure

Big Queues these moving along at snail pace, the young lady was trying her best having to scan each ticket with a hand held scanner , there was a lot of disgruntled fans, it makes you wonder whether its worth while trying to support the club by purchasing a season ticket as a lot like me will miss a couple of games during the season paying on the gate seems the thing to do as there were no queues at the pay as you enter

Heard it’s cos a lot of people who had season ticket last season didn’t pay any monthly instalments and the club lost money.
These cards can be stopped by the club if people don’t pay.

Wrong

A season ticket is a luxury though, I save for one

Would help if they turned some of the cash gates into ticket ones. Never understand why there are so many cash ones along Weldon road end with no one even using them!

Fair point, and the suggestion of scrapping it probably wasn't well thought out :lol:

Perhaps bring the dates forward? Shorter month payment plan then they'd have an earlier list of those who've not paid etc?
