Someone else using your ST when you can't make it ... [Uh oh. Post 43]

[wellquickwoody]

And for those who don't drive ?

Grow up?

 

[wellquickwoody]

In the same wallet I left at home, which incidentally has my cash in, and my cards.

To be honest, no ST, photo ID, bank cards or cash? Don't think you will be watching the game this afternoon sir.

Grow up? [emoji38]

For those wh are banned ? Get a time machine ?

Trusting that this does not prompt another knee jerk reaction from insider who apparently is empowered to make commercial decisions on the fly. There is an issue in that old season tickets can be revoked in terms of ground entry, but they still entitle you to free travel on match day within the travel zone.

Not a major money spinner, but where there are clearly a number of people (and here I do understand Insider's frustration) who seem to revel in getting something for nothing, no matter how trivial. Who enjoy sticking two fingers up at the club and the vast majority of fans who pay for what they get and expect to be treated fairly if there is a mishap

I just read the beginning of the thread until insiders post. I do not believe anyone was advocating any bad practise. There were many posts which said that cards need upgrading if they are concessionary. There were others who postulated about touts abusing the system and said the club should keep an eye on that and there were other posts which mentioned legitimate reasons that one may wish to pass a ticket on, there were no people who 'wanted something for nothing' just fans who wanted clarity.

Therefore, I was surprised at the strength of insiders comments as they seem out of tune with the sentiment expressed to that point.

We could all supply a phial of SPERM. This will allow DNA testing to ensure the right people are in the right seats but more importantly, could enable the club to CLONE everyone so if they don't turn up, the duplicate STH can be brought out and PLONKED in their seat anyway.

This would also solve the issue over the pretendance.

Do ladies not attend matches then? I am sure I have seen one or two.

This thread must surely go GOLD

They could have a sample of MY sperm to take along ?

Looks like my Mrs would never be able to get in then..

For the ladies, a cheek swab would probably do the trick.

Which set of cheeks?

Perhaps if there was a fixture on Christmas Day or your birthday she might?

 

[Goldstone1976]

Reaction:


"oooff"

"Blimey"


I'm confused.

That would sort out the sperm as well. Job done

The phrase 'Poacher turned gamekeeper' was tailor made for people like Paul Camillin.

 

[swindonseagull]

Are you quite a big fella then?

explain

 

[Goldstone1976]

Please play the ball, not the man.

It's one thing to criticise the decision, quite another to make disparaging comments about a particular individual.

 

[Notters]

It seems the club are really going out of their way to prevent any new fans from getting involved with the club, which will put the club down the pan in the long run. I've introduced lots of new people over the years, some of whom are now season ticket holders, who would never had shelled out £30+ for a ticket.

Why? Happens all the time on here.

Why can't a ticket be sent to a mobile device and used on the gate for entry this way? It seems extremely antiquated that a ticket has to be printed in the first place (although a 20th century paper option is useful for some).
If a pdf ticket can be used, like airport boarding passes, then why is there £5 charge? It is greener, can be completely automated, minimising staffing cost, and is easier for the club and ticket holders.
Can you explain why, with such a supposedly state of the art stadium, we are stuck using a system and technology from previous centuries?

Its a good question.

I bought tickets on Stubhub for the baseball on the morning of the game. They sent the ticket to my phone, someone at the turnstile scanned the barcode off my phone screen with their little scanning gun, and in I went. Doddle. No paperwork faff involved whatsoever, could not have been easier.

[Notters]

Put another way: why should the club bother ? If one decides to buy a season ticket it works the same way as a railway season ticket. Use it or lose it.. I would suggest that anyone who is bothered when they don't use their season ticket shouldn't buy one in the first place. The purchase doesn't come with an entitlement for refund of unused games. On the contrary, the relatively cheap game by game price is offered precisely because it is a commitment to pay for all games.

Sorry if this has already been said but this has been asked several times already. The ticket exchange WAS in place for last Saturday's game.

It isn't really.

This is possible at the Amex. I've done it (scanned the bar code on my phone, rather than printing the ticket) myself.

The technology is absolutely NOT the issue, here.
