Bruntonpasty Online Ball Boy Posts: 36 Likes received: 13	The crowd today was far more than I expected but still only two gates open at east stand home end? I walked up to have ST scanned and ...... well ......... no scanner! Instead, they some new fangled idea for keeping track of numbers. A piece of paper and a pen! I couldn't quite believe it, ffs can we regress any further?

Looks at programme notes from Jenkins for next home game. . .

"The silent majority of fans fully appreciate the move back to pen and paper to count our attendance. I am confident that the removal of the electronic scoreboard with an old board with letters on it that some old guy has to climb up to and then put the scores on will be equally well received. If I can just persuade Curle that playing without substitutes is the way forward."

nah would never happen!!

Not sure where wifi comes into it Deano but you`ll know , but the hand held scanners in B stand certainly worked we were scanned in no bother. So are we saying that the official gate was a bloody good guess. I certainly didn`t think it was over 6k - they should have knocked a thousand off I`d say was more like it.

Wifi was up in certain areas of the ground, at different stages between 1:30pm - 3:00pm. The scanners are basically ipod touches with a scanning device attached to it, and they use a wifi connection to connect to the server. With no wifi connection, there is no connection to the server, and therefore no scanners.

There are very old fashioned counters on the turnstiles, at least in the Warwick RE there were anyway. These are no longer used, and probably haven't been used for 20 odd years.

I had no problem collecting my match ticket (pre-booked) from the ticket office, apart from the young lass having a bit of difficulty locating it on the index system. Scanners in the Pirelli had been temporarily down, but were working fine when I handed my ticket over. Having said all that, I found that the old system worked quite well, albeit you had to be patient now and again. I hope the club haven't invested a fortune on a load of junk in the same way as a lot of our local authorities who bought caller systems that benefit no-one.

Surely the club are legally obliged to have an accurate record of how many fans are entering the ground.

If there was a fire or something and no one had any idea how many were in the Warwick it wouldn't look too good.

After failing to book tickets onlie despite multiple attempts I rang the office on Friday... held on for 15 minutes before I had to hang up and do some work. Not ideal but I thought... no problem, I'll swallow the addition £3 and get it on the day instead. I turned up an hour before kick off and asked for my usual seats... to be told that the system was so slow that you couldn't choose your seats, and that you had to take the seats that the system allocated you instead! So I ended up sat behind some railings for the first few minutes... then moved to my seats, which were free. It was like bloody musical chairs in the East stand after 5 minutes. They do need to get this sorted pretty soon.

When the gate between the Paddock and Warwick was first allowed to be opened, a few years ago, after the dividing gate being kept shut for a while, , it was supposed to be shut at kick off. Only when the attendance in the paddock and Warwick Road End was known was it allowed to be opened, and then only if the combined total of paddock and Warwick Road End wasn't more than the capacity of the smaller one. I dont know if that still applies.

Wukkie Online Youth Team Player Posts: 258 Likes received: 103	The club call it teething problems but I have another word for it - Shambles. Can the club not be fined for 'making up' the attendance and what if there is a shortfall in the books when they realise there was 5300, does Jenkins have to stump up the difference from what we should've made?
