anonymous piece of plastic


bicycle repair man 11 Aug 16 10.29pm

I have received my anonymous piece of plastic called season ticket (it doesn't even have the words Crystal Palace on it ).
As the powers that be haven't provided any information as to how to use it,could someone kindly tell me how it works when i get to the turnstile.

I refuse to believe there are that many people out there that can't spell. Too f**king lazy, that's what I think.

You're sure you're not looking at your Tesco clubcard?

3 years in the Premiership and we are really starting to get some pathetic complaints in.

There a letter with the card telling you all the stuff the club has done in the summer. Do you really need instructions on how to give a ticket to a turnstile operative?

My former flat mate is an Arsenal season ticket holder. They give you a great big box full of brochures and trinkets. Perhaps you would be more satisfied with one of them?

They have cushioned seats and stadium announcer with perfect diction.

I hear their hot dogs are much better than ours too.

Well we have a choice of two football teams we can go and watch. Airdrionians and Albion Rovers.

I don't know what their season tickets look like but I know fine well what their football looks like.

I suspect there'll be someone on hand to help with the new turnstile. You'll then get another eighteen goes at it over the season to perfect your technique.

When I went to the Valencia game there were no "turnstile operatives" just a machine which read barcodes,there is no barcode on the new season ticket.
So despite all the sarcastic replies I have received I suggest people get there early on Saturday,it could be chaotic.

It's got a chip in it, bit like an oyster card - I ain't saying it's definitely going to work though!

Thank you ,a sensible reply to my question.
So no barcode ,the barcode reader at the turnstile must have a chip reader as well.
Bet there's a delayed kick off!

Don't keep it near your Oyster card as it confuses the Oyster card readers. Displays a message about more than 1 card presented.

 


If only ????

Good tip.That's the sort of information we should given with the season ticket.

Looking at the boards on here it is clear that you must have something to moan about. If it is that bad why bother going? Stay at home and moan to yourself
