Scan your face, sell your scan on, get targeted advertising through the camera on your phone/ computer or when you enter a building that has purchased your info, eg a shopping centre and knows when you have entered. It's here and has been for some time now.

I mentioned the match to a police officer last evening at a friends yesterday, and they said there were some outstanding warrants from last time and they would have spotters out so guess this is just part of that.

In which case I'm surprised they publicise it. Would be better to let them turn up so they can nick them, no?

Exactly! I'm sure it will also be there to pick up wrong 'uns but if people think this hasn't been monetised they are living in cloud cuckoo land!

"Facial recognition will be in operation...

The quote about facial recognition is in the pre match brief

Seen it. Interestingly it was also in use for last seasons cup game looking back to that brief too. I suspect it’s always actually in use and just means they are checking the cameras to see if they Id anyone they know shouldn’t be there. I’ve certainly never seen any sort of technology at our turnstiles that would enable proper automated recognition and suspect it would be a GDPR breach to store our faces without consent. It would also cost a fortune.

I have a cunning plan and will be wearing this. tonight so no chance of being recognised

I’m going to enjoy it when each and every person through the north stand entrance positively matches with each and every middle-aged, pasty white Phil Mitchell look alikes on their database.

IF the club is using FR technology then I assume it would stop people lending out their STs to friends....

I just don't believe they would have that level of technology and why would they use it for the cup game last season when there where no season tickets in use?

So who spotted any FR cameras last night? At the WSU entrance I use there were NO cameras at the turnstiles, except one CCTV camera but there is no way that can cover all turnstiles at the same time. Absolute rubbish by the club and pointless scaremongering
