Warwick Hunt Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 You should have joined Oaky. He was the fat guy sitting on his own, looking smug. I thought that was you. Sumo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a family food budget of £60 per week? I am smug though. Why the f**k wouldn't I be and why does it bother you so much? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronnie Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 Possible first gate changed as I was there at 2pm first time ever and the last. Sitting in an empty stadium feeling cold one hour before kick off is boring to the extreme. I was there at 2 O'clock got my ticket when ticket office staff eventually got key to box with tickets in that was around 2.05-2.10 there was no queue then. Took a walk into Dunfermline as really grudge paying for overpriced rubbish food in football stadiums. Never found anywhere I fancied for food so walked back to stadium for 2.40 and no queue at any turnstiles just quite a big queue for ticket office went to first turnstile and without the need of someone in a yellow jacket scanned my ticket and went in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronnie Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 (edited) Pretty sure there was a similar situation in April when we played Morton we won 4-1 no mention of turnstile/tickets issues after that game.

Ronnie Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 That would be because it was pay at the gate.... My point being I got off the train and joined the queue at Morton which was half way towards the home end I got in after game kicked off and there was still a large queue outside waiting to get in we won 4-1 but don't remember the outcry from fans who missed part of that game. Pay at the gate didn't stop the issues that you have when 1000+ people turn up to a football match within about 15 minutes of each other. Buying tickets first doesn't help but pay at the gate wouldn't really have made much of a difference going by Morton experience. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't realise there were issues, I was in the ground about 20 mins before kick off, waited no more than 5 minutes to get in. Take your point though, we won the game so no moaning followed. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were only 2 turnstile open that night and remember 2 or 3 buses arrived just as a few hundred of us piled off the train end result being a massive queue quickly followed that took a while to get in. Only way teams can avoid these issues is having quite alot of turnstiles open but more often they aren't willing to waste the money on wages for staff to sit at empty turnstiles for the majority of the time they are open. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I though there were 4 turnstiles (2 pairs) open that night. Don't matter much now right enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was out by just 38p at which point salmonbuddie said "No it isn't it's 13%" or some such stupidity and you called it a "lie" and then I realised the kind of person who uses phrases like "lie" to describe an undershoot of 38p isn't really the sort of person to be engaging in polite conversation with. At that point I got bored having won the argument backed up by figures from a different poster who thought my figures could even be reduced. At that point only two of us were still engaging on that thread. Finally TPAK thingy waded in liking every post the fishy posted at which point I got bored and moved on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hambud Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 Think they ran out of change that night at Cappielow which is what caused the queue Yup, they were giving back £5 instead of £2 in change to keep us happy/quiet. That and a whole load of youngsters getting in for free as "under 12's" bought a lot of goodwill. We would have been rude to moan about such hospitality. In all seriousness I think Morton changed the rules on the gates quickly that night to get people in. Ie everybody was allowed to go in through the concessions gate etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
