Sorry if posted already, but what is the 'reasoning' behind the requirement to have photo ID on ST's from next season.

It’s another Wayne Nash ‘classic’, all part of his master plan to piss fans off. I’m not aware of any other club implementing this?

I have renewed but they didn't ask for photos - does this come later or have I missed it??

You’ve most probably got a digital ticket on your phone, £5

Re: Season Ticket ID

They charged me an additional £15! I paid £229 + £15 ! Everybody has unless they opted for phone tickets which was £5 extra I believe.

You have to submit the info as detailed in my post.

Please do not shoot the messenger

Re: Season Ticket ID

Re: Season Ticket ID

There is no reason for it.

They do it because they are control freaks and most likely want to tap into the ticket sharing game, so instead of you lending a season ticket to a mate for a match ticket price, or a tenner, or a pint, or because you are just nice, they can probably try and get you to sell it back to the club.

Just unnecessary, like many things like this. Getting food in the ground is now far slower and far more expensive than it used to be. Hardly progress.

I know it's slower because for years I'd get a pint at half time. I very very rarely do now

They would have to 'inspect' every ST to identify ticket sharing. It's complete b******s. I'm frisked every home game but never at an away ground. As you say, control freaks..

Re: Season Ticket ID

I read somewhere it's an aim to encourage people to use the digital card, making the physical card a "premium" option. I think some clubs have done away with physical cards altogether.

I'm not sure if that reasoning is for the cost, the photo or both but I am glad they didn't say it was for the environment as I could have used my previous one happily.
