How to use a season ticket booklet? (1 Viewer)

there is usually a number on the turnstile - the extra ones are for cup tickets

I hope by the time everyone has the booklets the turnstile staff and stewards are told what number fans should be using.

against the Gills, the steward we asked while queuing had no clue what he was being asked (would it not be simple to tell the stewards in their briefing what the number is, so when asked, they can inform fans, rather than just standing round looking useless waiting for the odd bag to search), then someone I know went to one turnstile and was told by the person behind the gate it was number '3' for that game, on the assumption I guess that 3 followed 2 (1 and 2 were used for the first two games at Sixfields, presumably so we didn't have to try and remember which numbers had been used outside of the Ricoh) so they, along with many other fans I guess, handed over number 3.......yet it was number '14' for that game. Had the friend not found out and promptly returned to the turnstile to change to the correct number, they would not have had a number '3' ready for the actual game where '3' was required.

Oh, and there was no sign saying what number it would be outside the turnstiles. That would be the easiest option for the club

14 was gills game

I actually only took ticket number 1 to the Gills game, thinking it would be game one at the Ricoh. The steward refused me entry at first as he told me it was number 14. I refused to move so he took my number one ticket and let me in anyway!

So the moral of the story seems to be , take the book with you .

......and then they can't throw it at you!

(I'll get me coat!!)

Always use to have to bring the book at HR. Also I seem to remember that they introduced a random number for each game i.e. not in game/number order. Not sure why but, there you go.
