Clydebanksaint Posted August 11, 2017 Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 Can anyone confirm if our tickets stipulate the away end or a certain stand etc. As there is rumours on twitter the home end tickets don't say anything meaning in theory but one and gain entry into the away end because if it didn't scan if the new turnstiles are installed at away end you could just show steward the ticket to override it and get in if don't say home or away end if mention a stand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Bundy Posted August 11, 2017 Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 From the Morton website: "We host St Mirren at Cappielow this weekend in the first Renfrewshire derby of the 2017/18 season – and we would like to urge all supporters to please come along to the ground to purchase or collect match tickets as early as possible tomorrow. Any fixture against our local rivals is guaranteed to be busy, but with a larger than usual crowd anticipated combined with the issues we have experienced with our season cards and fan cards, this advice takes on more significance. Fans arriving early will reduce queues both at the ticket office and the turnstiles and ensure speedier entry to the ground for everyone ahead of kick off. Can we please reiterate that there is no cash entry for St Mirren supporters on the day. This is an all-ticket match." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If as is mentioned in twitter every fan that travels down and does what I'm thinking then it could be very very busy at the turnstiles and as you say it doesn't state away ticket or away support then I may need to get to the ground early Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djchapsticks Posted August 11, 2017 Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 Just looking at my ticket and this is in fact correct. There is nothing specifying a stand or home/away. Any buds wanting to go tomorrow who missed out, just head down to cappielow, buy a ticket and pop in the away end! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each turnstile has a counter for entry so they collector knows how many have passed through....once it passes the number of tickets sold, they're going to be well aware that there's more in the stand than tickets sold. At that point the police could easily shut the turnstiles. More entering a gate than tickets sold is potentially trouble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julian Banjos Posted August 11, 2017 Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 Surely not.... Maybe the home end tickets have something which distinguishes them from ours? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think so mate. I reckon that's what the barcode is for eventually..to differentiate between the stands. Problem is, no-one is scanning the barcode in our end tomorrow. They're simply checking it is in fact, a ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This diddy club in Greenock can't seem to even get the turnstiles working at all for the home fans, the only admitted today the website to buy tickets and seasons book doesn't work, and they have panicked at even the thought of setting up a ticket kiosk for away fans. Where is this efficient entry counting turnstile going to come from overnight?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kemp Posted August 11, 2017 Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 The home end was supposed to have this new system set up for tomorrow. It hasn't happened but you would assume those tickets are going to look different from the away end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
