    I liked the idea of opening up the gates and allow the toilet smokers outside into a drinking area at halftime

    They should expand that outside properly and put the serving hatches on the other side.

    Probs could do this in the east stand as part of the extension when they get to it.

    The path on the outside of the south stand and east stand is super wide. If they put temp fences up during the first half, there would be loads of room to let people out at half time into a smoking/drinking pen, which would make it easier for people who are buying at the kiosks or going to the toilet.

    Don’t know if it’s been mentioned ( to many posts to go through) but I was told we’d all receive an email in June letting folk know they can opt for the old plastic card rather than digital, did anyone get one ? Popped up the ticket office yesterday but the queue was to big for me to wait in gona try again the day

    Aye. But the geometry of the building means that this is one thing that cannot be changed, without pulling down the outer perimeter wall and moving it back. Very big job.

    So it's always going to be a bit cosy there!

    Why not just have it on ya phone. Much easier to use, one less thing to carry and much easier to share if you can’t go and you’re letting a mate use your ticket

    Because I work away and like me ticket to be used and it’s a pain in the bum to assign then print off so much easier to have a card

    Print off??? What?

    You literally just assign and it pings over to the other person to add to their apple wallet

    If there’s one thing the e-ticket system has over a physical card it’s ease of sharing

    What’s your problem I asked a simple question and you wade in with all the ticketing site stuff
