    Respect for others ? coming from you ?
    'Leave it those who are more civilised to ask the question' ??
    Not much respect shown from you there. Maybe, just maybe you should practise what you preach ?

    I wasn't suggesting anything, other than the fact that cleaning the place would cost barely anything in the grand scheme of things and you'd expect any business with paying customers to at least attempt to make it a decent place to go.

    The fact that you're even quoting international strikers suggests that you're deluded...

    You were the one that suggested keeping the place clean wouldn't be affordable with 2-3 signings to be made. <laugh>

    It would need to be cleaned thoroughly every week,every single seat? It's a huge task?

    Look,I'm not denying it's unsavoury and it needs to be addressed at some point but quite how that's achievable is open to debate.

    In terms of manpower,man hours and frequency.The painting of the Forth Rd Bridge springs to mind.

    I think one-off tickets are a big part of the problem. The gate I use hardly ever has any queue at all. We scan our passes and get straight in. On Saturday when many people were using one-off tickets either printed or as a QR code on a phone, they struggled to scan them a lot more. Mine was alright but someone going in in front of me was trying for ages to get it to scan and he didn't seem to be doing anything wrong.

    The Chelsea cup game a few years ago was similar which is why I'm wondering if it's the cup tickets that are the issue.

    don’t be ridiculous, we’re asking for cleaning of the known problem areas more than once every two years, and also addressing why they’re problem areas in the first place.

    Sorry Muzz but I stand watching people try every permutation with their card or whatever and wonder if they have memory issues. I walk up place the bar code uppermost I’m in in a second or two max it’s so easy . People queue at the first two turnstiles and don’t move along to the others , dither generally don’t care about anyone else so just don’t get a move on . Then I go in have drink got to the toilets always found a paper towel , toilets are fine for the type of venue , go to my clean seat in the dry in E7 , after an FC match there’s food and drink spills all over the floor then I enjoy the match .

    Really depends on the bird! If its Blake Lively, then yes, that is very fortunate. If its Kathy Burke- You've clearly been a bad bastard in a past life.

    It's not always that easy, I've been using bar-code cards since the stadium opened (they had them for corporates long before the rest of the ground) and mine still doesn't work every time, it can regularly take a couple of minutes before you can get it to work, even when you've used it hundreds of times before.

    Never bother with the bar code, much quicker to hold the season card against the rfid reader. Our bar code readers seem to be quite fussy about the distance the bar code is from the reader, which is one of the reasons I thin queues build up on busy days.

    Seeing people try to scan their paper bar codes against the rfid reader after watching the guy in front use their season pass is always good for a chuckle.
