Apologies if this has been discussed already but I found this picture on twitter, no idea how to post the tweet I'm afraid.

It appears to be new ticket booths at the ground, is that right and if so does it mean there is POTD facilities coming to the Amex or are they just for collections?

Bolton are reporting to their fans that they can pay on the day at the Amex! I guess POTD is going to become a permanent facility.

This looks great, is that the North/West side of the ground?

Yes, to the left of the club shop as you look at it.

Maybe, half could be used as betting kiosks as well!

I'm surprised that these weren't in the original plans for the ground. You've been able to pay on the day at the ground for a while.

Ooo this is like one of Jack Straw's Friday stadium update threads, very nostalgic.

What a splendid development, and totally out of the blue!

(just need to make sure the ticket kiosks are fully staffed now and with a single queueing system so you don't end up stuck behind ticket kiosk wanker for half an hour)

Hopefully they won't ask the Transport Manager to organise it

Pay on the Day for Albion fans has been available for quite a long time now.

Is the idea for this (particularly home tickets) to reduce the queues in the club shop on matchday?

Stop the conflicting ticket/merchandise queues - yes. There's no ticket office inside the shop any longer now. Until these windows are finished and open, there is temporary ticket office across from the club shop.

As ticket kiosks go, these look pretty good.

Dunno about anybody else, but I just LOVE this fine-tuning of the stadium. Every little tweak is magic!

No need for human kiosk attendants is there?
