Drew Peacock Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 We seem to be missing a thread about ticketing on the night of the game. I turned up 20mins before kick off, very short queue, ticket scanned quickly. No complaints at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin phantom Posted September 5, 2013 Admin Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 Seemed to work well, on a negative shame it took to the first week in September to sort. Just hope out ST's work on the 14th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BS34Red Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 Walked in ten mins before kick off, average sized queue, all the turnstile were just waiving us all through without even checking our tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could have printed it and got in 50 times. Decent game, some excellent performances, good result but shame about the morons at the end. FA fine on its way no doubt.

This ^ Didn't scan my ticket, just waived me in. I could have easily passed it back outside through the railings to someone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pezo Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 There is a serious problem with ticketing that the club should sort ASAP and in the mean time they need to stop selling E tickets. I had an E ticket for the Williams, the turnstile operator didn't even bother letting me try and scan it - simply took it from me said yes this is the right gate and let me in. I could have printed hundreds of tickets and let people in for free (or a small fee) last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine that scenario mixed with the trouble last night and we could have been in for a right rollocking !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Cyril Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 Judging by the numbers at the eastend of the Dolman left standing in gangways and stairways and a distinct lack of empty seats, I believe at least one naughty boy might have indeed passed his e ticket back out to a mate. He might even have done it twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dezgimed Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 If I turned up at half time and stood outside the Dolman gates I could have just waved a blank sheet of crumpled up paper for all it was worth getting back in. Seems a bit backwards in progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 I got 4 tickets in person from the shop, not e tickets. We all went through the same turnstile, 3 of the barcodes scanned eventually and one just wouldn't. The operator ripped off the barcode and handed back the rest of the ticket. The problems weren't as bad as theyhave been, probably due to lots of people just being waved through, but they aren't fixed yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneManMob Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 I've still not shown a ticket this season. Waved on through Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eco Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 Chap in front of me in Dolman turnstile was having awful trouble with ticket he printed off, I gave up moved to next turnstile where ticket purchased in club shop didn't scan, waved through, this was about 7.15. Laughable really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aizoon Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 Exactly. Remember what happened when we had thousands locked out at the Bristol Derby before. Imagine that scenario mixed with the trouble last night and we could have been in for a right rollocking !! Fortunately, both sets of fans behaved themselves that night. I think that, even in the heat of a derby, people could see how dangerous the situation was. This ticketing shambles has to be sorted out before someone gets busy with their printer - although by the sound of it, somebody already has Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
