Why don't the club get with the times and have cards which you just scan as you go in? We have had them for years. It is meant to be a new stadium. Where are the moderns facilities to make things easier?

Do the club realise that an unpleasant experience for a fan could mean they don't buy a ticket again... that needs sorting.

Very silly.

The club has been clear on this (in a relaxation of the rules after the first game)

Bring your season ticket booklet....rip the voucher out before reaching the turnstile......show your booklet at the turnstile when handing your voucher in.

Is it just me or is that tooooooooooo simple to understand ?

Apparently it is!!!

Agree we need to move with the times. Its okay people saying u know the rules but when they change so often its confusing!

agree, if u cant make the match then give it ur mate and they can go. Whats the harm? But the rumour of a ticket forging scam must be the worry for the club, they must want to avoid another situation like the first game at the hj when hundreds sneaked in over walls and with forged tickets.

Start of season...new rule on tickets
After game 1......problem identified, apology from club, new clarified rule issued
No change since. I'm really worried for you if that's "so often"

As for the whole contractual relationship / using mates ticket etc, this is a problem for all sports clubs. Some have spent thousands of pounds introducing additional technology. Some have actually increased prices (thus reducing the benefit of season tickets) to compensate them for such use.

yep when i was going in (near the rodney end) the stewards were telling people to rip the tickets out the book ready

Utter toss, what does it matter? How about lost revenue from people who may pay to come to a game? Think that's fairly important, don't you?
Quite a lot of people try to get in using junior tickets both home and away, go and blame them, or is that acceptable as its human nature?

We should rent our stadium from a football club, we'd have one then eh? That's the only reason you have one.

You never cease to miss the point, it's really quite amazing.

I had my ticket ripped out my book to hand the operator took the book off me and asked me my address ?????

All you need to do is rip the ticket out of the book so that it's ready, but then keep the book in your hand so the operator can see it.

Been doing that since 1993 with no problems.

Stalker Alert...

Is this thread real?

read my second sentence if an adult passes his to a friend to use dont see the problem dont agree adults using kids tickets though

Read my second sentence, then my third.

It depends which way you look at it from a club point of view its lost revenue to the individual its money well saved in these times of financial hardship

And of course the club will be setting the rules from ITS viewpoint. if a season ticket holder cant make the game...tough. If a person was going to the game..and doesn't have access to an unused season ticket then the club gets the money.

OK, so it doesnt stop Fred lending Mick his full season ticket booklet but the club is likely to be working on averages....

If 10 people cant go, on average 3 might not know anybody to lend ticket to. Of the remaining 7, 4 might not be willing to give their mate the whole booklet but would be more than happy to give them the individual voucher.

agree with all that Mike

the sooner ther betr they go on to a credit card type entry where you juss put the card in the machine and it lets you in the better

They cant afford it relative to the benefit involved. Wigan only have it because Wigan Athletic paid for all the equipment.

if these morons can't understand a simple instruction then they don't deserve to be let in. Its not rocket science. How hard can it be. Some people are just plain thick stupid or backwards

I'm sure if Salford can afford it you lot can too.

That set up is already in place at the North Stand (unless its been taken out) which the scousers used when they played reserve games here.
