Doesn’t stop them walking along the top of the stand but I’m not sure some of them are bright enough for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the steward on the other side will see a coloured light and expect a certain aged person to come through. Guessing that stops adults with kids tickets. Especially if the club pays the steward a ‘give-a-fuck’ bonus. Sorry but most stewards won’t want to put themselves in the way of someone who wants to buy a £50 ST instead of a £250 one.

Well, if adults are using kids tickets then they deserve turning away ... & ticket removing too. It's effectively shop-lifting. Doubtless some will see it as unnecessarily harsh & officious ... & blame Neil Hart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said this couldn't have been implemented mid-season ie for Accy, but surely they know which season ticket holders have attended the PJT games so far? Isn't that part of the remit of insisting you're a member? Our average attendance at home in the PJT is 3300, so the 2600 tickets should have initially gone to away ST holders, then ST holders with previous PJT attendance. It can't be hard to do. 2. I'm not arsed what time they go on sale, but (i) more than half a day's notice would be good and (ii) don't implement a queue system mid-season and not tell people about it. People logging on at the specified 10am time for Accy tickets stood little/no chance of getting tickets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They always look as busy as ever to me so if that isn't translating to cash being taken on the bus then they need to be having a chat with Tyrer's. 2 hours ago, Traf said: 1.

Posted this previously but the precedent is already there from Burton away in 2017/18 when priority was given to people who had attended two or more away games that season. Again, the whole of this season (and most of last season) has - in theory - seen every ticket assigned so should be a doddle really. 1 hour ago, Traf said: Neil says £8.20 to park is more than fair.

Dr. Feelgood Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 I've never used one of the buses as I come from 65m away but it'd be a very retrograde step to stop them. Not a very Auntie Sharon thing to do. She'd be the person to appeal this to. £8.20 is steep. Is Comrade Burnham involved ? ... & if not, why not ?

Big E Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 I never realised how much the parking charges piss me off until recently. £8.30 to be sat there ages after kick off is ridiculous. Forgot I lived an hour away on Saturday and was parked pretty much in Preston on that car park. Rammed and £8.30 surely we can keep the buses going. Especially with the green initiative Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must admit I did use that as my warning shot and have spent the last however seasons assigning them to the right people just in case as least it’s easy enough to search for their names when assigning each one Pay on the day is tough luck.
