    If the club put 2 or 3 electronic turnstyles on each stand, then charged a tenner for the swipe card, then aloud people to top up on line like transport of London do with there travel cards, ie on a match day a bloke can use his smart blower access his account to top up is card at half 2 for £25 for a cat a game then walk up to the gate swipe and walk in no messing do you think this would add a few more to the crowd and would it be a lot easyer for people to get tickets at the discount price and would people start using it

    each season then the club could start the season with a cat c game charge £15 for the first home game but charge home fans a 10er to top up the card for the new season then the first game would cost home fans £25 but then there members for the rest of the season and get the discount, then the club can still stiff away fans, and i'm sure it would cut out a lot of moaning

    Hard to justify

    I'm guessing there are lots of higher priority ways for the club to spend £100k-200k just at the moment. I also wonder if having to load money on a card etc is an even bigger hurdle than simply gettng a membership and buying a ticket ahead of time ?

    HAHAHAHAHA 200k it'll not cost nowhere near that at first all they need is about 1000 cards and 10 card swipers and they'll be charging a 10er for the card and i'm sure the it team could set up a website in no time at little cost
