New turnstiles...

[Linz]

Just wondered how everyone found them on Saturday.

The bloke in front of me was complaining that his card wasn't working. Kicking up a right fuss he was at the steward. It's a shambles, an embarrassment, you ought to have been able to test them (you were, I pointed out, at the Open Day. He ignored me.)

The poor steward was getting some right abuse.

The look on his face however was a picture as he muttered the immortal words... "You aren't pushing the gate".

Man promptly tried in a huff expecting it not to work - maybe he thought the automatic gate scooped you up and pushed you through? Magically, his ticket now allowed him entry and he very quickly scurried away to find something else to whinge about.

Mine worked first time.

Haha, quality story Linz!

I've not used my card yet, as i got given a ticket for the game, but that worked fine. Will be using my card for the first time against WBA.

 

[LeeSUFC]

All old hat for me been using them since last season so no probs for me.

 

[rachyblade]

Mine worked first time too, was a bit shocked about the queues outside tho but suppose thats what happens when everyone turns up 5 mins before kick off.

Also.... Carling on the Kop!! and you can still smoke

season card!

No problem for me. But I did see one or two not sure about when to push the gate! Maybe a green light with OK or Push now may have been a good idea. Some people need more reassurance than others.

Maybe a green light with OK or Push now may have been a good idea. Some people need more reassurance than others.

Or maybe they ought to record the voice of the old turnstiles blokes... "ok love"...

 

[60Williams]

Green light!

"Ok love" nice touch that, or "Ah up pal how thea doin" when you've reached 10 games

 

[RichJay]

I don't have a season ticket but my match day ticket worked fine.

 

[S64 Blade]

I got in no problem with the card. Very easy and fast.

Now if only the fuckmonkeys that were stood in front of me on saturday can be educated. I was itching to point out that the card wasn't faulty, the wrong way round, upside down, it was more that it was a fucking Visa card. Pillocks.

 

[Gazza1984]

Found it easy- no problems.

 

[Robbie]

Found it easy- no problems.

People who have been to the away games at like Reading and Blackburn and that don't seem to have had a problem.

 

[DazBlade88]

I got in ok with it but like Robbie said alot of the away days last year had them so alot know how simple it is.
