Women will still spend ages trying to find their purse and then their card. I watch my missus do it all the time.
You’ve also failed to take into account the amount of times payments fail or get rejected. My office shares a campus with two universities I hear sorry your card has been declined when buying lunch pretty much every day.
When it works contactless is great and I agree is quicker. But it’s not always practical and I don’t believe overall it makes a huge difference time wise so why not keep both?

The guy who asked the question is not able to use the train as he is unable to walk up the slope to the stadium but can use the lift the other end of the stadium for the coaches.
Donn't get me started on women at tills
Hopefully the stuff Barber was referring to from Amex includes much better terminals and card readers. Separate cash/contactless kiosks (rather than queues within the same kiosk maybe) would also work (and allow the club to measure relative speed of service, so useful in that context) but they need to be very clearly marked (unlike now, with people missing the 'card only' or 'cash only' signs and only finding out after they're ordered that they can't pay).

With 8k on the waiting list and the next goal set, I noticed PB took the (nailed on) expanding stadium question a bit more seriously this time around.
I got the feeling he was intimating a few more seats might be possible than the "maybe a couple of hundred" responses of the past.

Sounds like a matter which should have been handled personally then, via email or in person afterwards. Rather than asked in a forum with the club/individuals under scrutiny.
I agree; he doesn’t. All the more impressive that he does it despite not being entirely comfortable - he doesn’t have to; most Chairmen don’t.

For an evening match, getting to the Amex using a seagulls travel coach/bus from East Sussex is completely different from trying to use public transport. Is there a bus that runs from the Amex to, say, Eastbourne at 10pm on a Tuesday night?
Thankfully evening matches in the PL are few and far between.

So that the thousands who turn up to watch the women's team can be seated.......

You're completely wrong. The person who read the question out, was actually the father of a disabled fan. Hence the somewhat 'child' like nature to the question - and also why Paul was aware of who she is...
So no trans fan, just a dad asking a question for his disabled daughter so that everybody gets the chance

Thanks but I went there and that video is currently unavailable.
But reading through this thread I get the feeling that I'd be better off not watching it, but reading the decent questions and answers here instead.

How can you form your own opinion if you don't hear it first hand?

There are significant costs incurred from handling cash, e.g. storage, counting, transporting. This is probably the biggest driver towards going cashless, more so than any time savings at vending outlets.
Cash is also getting a bit more difficult to obtain, with free cash machines slowly disappearing, further driving contactless use upwards.
Like it or not, it will be when, not if, the stadium goes cashless.
Opinion on what? Someone asked why ball boys/girls are behind the advertising, and it's because the adverts need to be seen. Ok. Someone wrote here that the club would like to become a top 10 club. Cool.
What am I missing?

It's entirely up to you. I thought you liked to be pedantic and have attention to detail.
