“ push , Mr Troutface , push ... one more , last push , MrTroutface... puuuuuuuuuush.

-congratulations - it’s a football match .”

I was still looking for a bloke to take my ticket stub... the lovely lady steward sped things up though. Apologies to anybody kept waiting due to me failing to grasp the idea that electronic turnstiles are meant to speed things up!

I'm sure once me and my kind get used to it, then it'll be a blessing that we have them!

That Lady Steward was a Midwife mate !

🙂
 
Two gates in the STF were blocked off due to malfunctioning card readers. Luckily I was early and breezed through a different gate with not much fuss.
 
The only issue was the guy in front of me successfully inserted card , got the green light ......... and stood there.

And stood there.

Then he called a steward - lost his time slot and had to go through the whole process again .

Then he stood there. Again.

“ push the fuckin barrier mate ! “ the cry went up.

So he stood there.

Again.

Was it steve mclaren. I noted he was twenty minutes late
 
I had to wait a while whilst a couple of cretins failed to push (much like the aforementioned incident) after scanning their matchday tickets. This was all while a female friend of theirs, who was already through, loudly accused the stewards of not being able to do their job. Once the two were eventually given a gentle push after scanning the rest of us glided through.
 
No problems for me or nephew. Lad in front was stopped and challenged over his age as he had an under 18 card but it didn’t let him in. Don’t know how it knew that. Steward asked him and he said he was 18 but was 17 when he bought it. Off to the office for the lad. Hope it got sorted.

I quite liked the fact that you didn’t have to go through a cage like at many grounds.
 
It's a perfectly fine system. Works perfectly.....unless you're a fucking moron that is.

Saw a few people standing there like lemons not knowing what to do. Some woman was just randomly waving her ticket in the air for some reason.

How can having a card thats not working make me a moron you fucking dickhead. A keyboard tough guy. Prick

I wasn't actually referring to your experience. I was talking about the 3 people in front of me who just stood there looking gormless. I actually saw one person climb over the turnstile.
