I'm not. Cup games are not included in the season ticket. People who want to pay on the day wont have a card. What I am trying to say is the club have yet to announce how they will deal with it. Every other week someone on here moans about the queues at the turnstiles. I never have. I think queues are good, shows we will have a big gate. However I have been to other grounds where they have card systems and the queues at the Ticket / card office have been big. If you can do it on line a few days before than that will be good , but asking at the shop, nobody knew. Yes there are a 7 weeks to go, but lets say 4000 people have Season ticket cards. If we have a gate of 8000+ which is feasible. This means 4000 people will have to get a card, and I would say a lot of them we want to buy them "on the day." Why is this question a dig at the club? It is a QUESTION that has yet to be answered. Meanwhile don't wear your hands out They're not going to give out Season Cards for one off games, they'll just give out paper tickets with a barcode on, ya know...same as every other club that have dragged themselves out of the stone age.
I expect paying on the turnstiles will be an option too. Not sure why you're starting a whole thread just to bicker with people over this.
Bax do you know if we're gonna be able to buy away tickets online next season?

Can't expect them to be totally competent in one hit Tom(s)!
I think I'm away for the first home game, and I'm GUTTED to be missing the meltdown when nobody can use their cards, just bashing them at the reader or waving them at the guy operating them. Tempted to cancel my trip.

Firstly, I'm bot bickering with anyone, they are bickering with me. Secondly I had no idea that this was a happy clappy forum. Thirdly some of you are very brave behind a keyboard when the truth is a lot of you are just old codgers who wouldn't say some of these things to my face. Fourthly I've seen some arguments on here that only toddlers would understand. Fifthly if we want to really get out of the stone age then the Mem needs bulldozing rather than tarting up.

It's hilarious..
I totally understand that change should be questioned for the better. The better for whom, and everything that goes with it.
Unless you want to uninvent the wheel, we are and have been in a progressive technological age, so this is a natural step in the right direction.
We are neither leading the way, nor last to become up to date, but I see so many positives as opposed to negatives on this one.
Apart from the obvious cutting down on fraud, the customer has a more convenient experience of obtaining priority bookings and the club retain closer direct contact via email on notifications and promotions. Hopefully leading to a promotion!
This time next year, after a few teething problems, most will accept it as normal and wonder what the hell we done without it..

As anyone else who had a copy of Early Man for Father’s Day knows, if we want to get out of the Stone Age then we need Maisie Williams up front.

Renewed my ST ticket today, can't wait for the new Card to arrive! It will be interesting to see how long it takes. A friend paid to renew three season tickets immediately after the season ended but has received nothing. I guess the club are waiting until Wednesday's deadline passes before sending off all the renewals to the card making company in one batch? Once up and running it will be a far better system. Just hope there are no major problems such as late delivery, machine failures on first matchday...... sure it will be fine!

When purchasing my season ticket/card a couple of games before the end of season, I was told it would be posted out end of June.

Well the ticket is being replaced by a card. Now as we all know the season "card" ( I like to be up to date) covers all leagues games at home. Just wondered what do we do for cup games? Queue up at the Portakabin windows to have the card updated? I just wondered as we never seem to bother with a plan B Phone the shop and ask 🤔

Oh and if you are so sure, spill the beans

Who didn't believe there would be new turnstiles with the season cards? Odd bloke.
