E-cash

[SiJ]

I mean having the two options is fine (E-Card and contactless), but the idea of getting rid of contactless is really dumb imo.

People just don't like change. Fast forward 10 years and cash, cheques or cash machines won't exist. 

I don’t think people have a problem moving forward and removing cash.

 

But surely this is a step back from contactless card payment?

Change has got to make things better

 

Introducing a system where you have to queue to put cash on a card

 

Then queue to buy items with card

 

Seems like we are creating additional queues to me

Tbf...anyone who has seen Hoots trying to navigate Hillsborough after a few pints will completely understand his misgivings about an E-Card system.

Exactly

 

I can't always find my seat, how am I supposed to remember where this e card top up thingy is

 

Just figured it out

 

Look for people queuing

 

I'm going to end up in the toilets aren't I?

Back to the point re Ajax and the England match I went to. All the regulars, i.e. the Dutch, just load up their card (season ticket card) with say £50 at the start of the season. It's a great system. Quicker, safer and no faff. 

[OhForAnotherShez]

it's just great only going for the football.

 

No moans about cash, calculators at the till, queues, cold or unavailable pies etc. etc.

 

Less overall cost.

 

Try it !!

What about the ones who aren’t regulars?

**** em. Let's create and build an environment that suits the masses, rather than the minority. Far too much pisssing around trying to appease the 3 game a season fannies. 

 

Its a business. Look after your loyal customers.

But it also creates a lot of 50p admin fees for the club 

 

Points mean £££££££££££££££££££££££££££££

I’m still not seeing how it’s easier for me to add funds to a season ticket than just use my contactless.

 

And I have to put say £50 on it months before I’m going to spend it all. I prefer the money in my bank account rather than somebody else’s.

 

Or I just put £10 on and have to keep doing it and maybe run out mistakenly.

 

i suspect I just won’t bother.  I’m not an habitual spender on the food and drink.  Occasionally I fancy a beer or a Bovril and I therefore buy on a whim.  The hassle will probably put many off.

I have a question

 

What happens when you've spent more than you thought you had spent, and you queue for a pint, the young lady serves you the pint, then she finds you haven't enough cash on your card, and you can't use your contactless

 

We went to an outdoor event in Spain last year, we had to queue to buy tickets for a drink, not knowing how long we were staying we bought enough for one drink each, we then had to queue at the bar to swop the tickets for drinks, both queues were horrendous

 

Buying a pint behind the cantilever, one woman takes your order and your money, a different woman pulls your pint, while she is pulling the pint, the lady who took our money is stood there redundant, so in effect you have two people doing one job, while one is working the other is waiting, I've never worked behind a bar, but surely it's quicker to have one member of staff serving one person, two members of staff to be serving two people

 

I went to an away game at Notts Forest 7 or 8 years ago, Darren Purse was playing for us, they had that pulling system that pulled 8 pints at the same time, that was 7 or 8 years ago, why haven't we implemented this?

They take the pint back off you or offer you a club kneecapping as settlement

People have done nothing but moan about the catering, staff, food etc for years. The club are trying to move forward. FFS give them a break. It's like a mothers meeting on here. Everything from the Presto Tools sign, to the gold elephants and the bag searches gets criticised. It's about time the fanbase at this club grew a pair. 

 

By far and away the biggest set of wet fanny knobbs in the league. However some on here get out of bed, and get through the flipping day is a mystery to me. flipping miracle.
