| Have I missed something!
When I picked up my season tickets I was told that the Stobart Stadium Swipe Cards (needed to get through the Auto Turnstiles at Widnes) will follow in the post.
I don't seem to have received mine - has anybody or am I jumping the gun?

| I was told that we will receive them in time for the first home game.

| No I've not got mine yet either, they basically admitted they won't be here for the start of the campaign by saying you can get in with just your season ticket!

| 5 of us still awaiting ours. They have another couple of weeks before we actually need them though, so there is still time yet.

| Whilst we're on the subject I remember something about one or the other (ticket book or swipe card) being sent off to be barcoded which was this?
I'm assuming it is the swipe card given my tickets don't seem to have any and the cards are still not out.

| Probably the cards. We still have to take our books with us though to each match just in case there are any problems with our cards.

3076_1671446335.jpg SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

It shouldn't be a problem with just the cards. If they don't work just take then to a manned (or ladyed) turnstyle and they will let you in.
That's how it works at Wigan, but I personally have never had a problem.
Will they use the same cards at your new ground and just reprogramme them?
At Wigan new cards are issued about every three years.

| The cards have been sent out to some people. Mclennan from these boards got his swipe card over the weekend.
Seems like they may be sending them out in batches.
Probably Widnes not used to having to produce thousands of cards.

| When we collected our Season tickets we were told we had to take the new season ticket books with us as well in case the swipe cards didn't work for some reason.

He didn't, it was his season ticket book.

| So what's the point of the card if you still need the book?
Other than to prove once again that Saints still can't organise a p!ss up in a brewery.

Will there still be people operating the turnstyles?
If not, then they won't have to pay there wages.

| When I picked up my tickets before christmas, I was told I would get the swipe card in about 10 days time.
Can't say I am surprised.

TBH no one can say at this stage. When they unveiled the seating plans etc last year I asked whether we would use smart cards & unmanned turnstyles a la the Headingly, at the new stadium, especially given our sponsorship by Livesmart: who deal with such technology and was told probably not as the tech would not be ready by then. I can only assume the guy telling me hadn't a) been to Headingly or b) heard of any of the tech/organisations already using existing RFID or contactless smartcard tech.
