How can we only have 1 adult ticket turnstile open at the blackthorn end for what was obviously a big gate, it was a joke getting in, a steward commented that it was due to holidays that the other 2 were closed. Why can't the club cover holidays for times like this. So on to the food outlet in the same end, they had 3 people working in the second and the one young lad who couldn't work the till, they took him off it in the end, poor lad was gutted being belittled in front of everyone, they had obviously had no training and their organization was non existent. What is going on at our club, it's just another example of our badly ran club.

No problems getting into the south stand and the pasty hut was well staffed.
Woo woo!

Yes we actually added it up for him, the girl took over and gave a sausage roll and a coke for 2.50, now that is cheap, maybe they should invest in a calculator!

Unless you've worked in a pasty shop on the till and you've manned a turnstile, you shouldn't really be criticising.

4/8 turnstiles open on the West side of the ground.
Slices of burger cheese on chips.
Kiosk staff rude, no cold drinks a hour before kick off.
However plenty of stewards stood watching the game.
They have only had 3 months to recruit staff....

I've had to do the simple addition when buying pasties and teas for seasons now. One thing I will defend the club on I suppose: they're not responsible for basic secondary education in the west county.

The turnstile thing was an absolute farce. Got there 20 minutes before but ended up walking in while the one minute silence was happening. Felt very disrespectful. The only reason we got in that early is because someone who was clearly a behind the scenes supervisor opened another turnstile. Why didn't that happen at the start? Were they expecting a crowd of 5,000? Once again the club balls a big day up probably putting off a fair few from coming again anytime soon.

Starting to think only the fans and DC have any interest in the club, one turnstyle open instead of the usual two for the West Stand meant it took 10 misn to get in so didn't have time to spend my usual fiver on drinks etc, added to the replica shirt I didn't get for Wembly that's the best part of £50 the club have lost out on from me alone.
Also waht's happening with the East Strand scoreboard surely that can be fixed?

No organisation and no control from the stewards.
They were letting people push in and had 3 separate lines for one turnstile!! All the stewards care about is checking for bottles in bags.7
Some things never change here! We're a club set up for a fan base of 5k and lower league football. If they were really serious about us wanting to progress to the next level they need to change the set up ASAP as the way we're doing it now isn't acceptable and has cost us dearly.

Unfortunately Rovers seem to be short sighted in every department and have been for years.
