    Hi,

    Does anyone know if season pass holders can gain access to Oakwell at half time? Is there a turnstile left open that long?

    I can't get to the game until then :-/

    Thanks in advance for any replies.

    Not sure but I'm not looking forward to the queues at noon.

    They have a "late gate". I went in late once, against Sheffield United as it happens.

    I once used one in the East Stand. It was a gate right down towards the North Stand. I'd ring the club and ask where the late gate is for the stand you're in.

    I often get to Oakwell at half time and usually struggle. I've found sneaking in beside the redfearns bar in that corner area with the furthest door/gate is best way in - or there's supposed to be a door left open in corner of Ponty stand nearest road, but i've never got in that way before around 3.30pm - I usually have to try a few doors and shout a few times if I can't see a door ajar! Or run around the stadium like a headless chicken as I had to on one occasion.
