im sure it says in your season ticket you have to take the book! and now theyre just trying to cut down on the people that dont i guess!

Condition number 2 in the season ticker rules......."BRING THE FULL BOOKLET" (to summarise)

No problem at all with taking the full season ticket to games!!
The only thing i had a problem with was a bloke in the east stand with gloves on tryin to tear a ticket out of the book and havin great difficulty,I know it was cold today but gloves and ripping tickets out of books do not go ,hence entrance to the east stand gate 9 -10 was a little clogged up....

It looked no better at the entrances at the West side corner of the South stand.

to be fair thats probably a condition that i could find in my 1981 Wilderspool south stand season ticket. which is why ive always taken my full book.

just wanted to know where this "warning" was given out i dont have a problem with it, it stops people giving their match ticket away to any random person that they wouldnt trust with their full book, if they cant attend.

i think it caused problems today that could have been avoided

I know what yer saying ,Today reminded me of the first game at the HJ what some seven years ago now,things a little dissorganised people not quite sure where they should be which queue to be in etc,I know its different but man utd seem to get over 75,000 through their turnstyles every 2 weeks without so much as a hitch so whats going wrong?????

United have more than 7x the turnstiles for the 7x spectator. They have spent thousands on computerised turnstiles and most importantly MOST supporters dont turn up 15-20 minutes before kickoff.

As for warnings, I did hear that all season ticket holders had received letters from the club about the new ticket arrangements hence why i asked a question weeks ago as my daughter hadnt

Inside your season ticket booklet; Conditions of Issue MUST bring your full season ticket book for admittance at the turnstiles.

I rip my voucher out while queuing and show the book as I hand it over, and have done for years without a problem. I understand that all season ticket holders were sent a letter, although I didn't get one.

I would imagine there's no problem doing it in front of the gateman. As others have said, it's something that's always been in the booklet.

I went with 4 other season ticket holders and none of us got a letter. We all took the full book anyway so that wa fine, although the only complaint is the queue to get in! Took well over 20mins and we missed the first try!

Oh not the only complaint sorry the south stand was very jam packed, and we had to watch the game stood by the wall on the yellow walkway.

On a positive note: this supports the idea for expanding the stadium!!
And a cracking game to watch!!! Impressed by Joel after a dodgy pre season

The Queues today were awful for the South Stand. Took me 10 minutes to get in and I started queueing 25 mins before kick off.

Queues were bad for the East Stand too. When people are queuing across carparks and roads you would think Mr Health and Mr Safety would be in attendence! I would have been a bit peeved if I was still queuing and missed the first try - and no, not everyone left it late and poured out of a pub! I left home at my normal time but queued for around 10 minutes when I normally go straight in.

Apparently ALL tickets for the south stand were sold so in theory the south stand was as packed as it will be for Wigan/Saints (and possibly Leeds)

Got to the ground in plenty of time, queued for a bit longer than I would have liked but was in place with plenty of time. This has always been the rule so ignorance is no excuse.

They do.

It was a bit of a farce getting in today. It has probably said in every season ticket since year dot that you have to bring in the full book but it's never too my knowledge been strictly adhered to.

So why do it now? As for the warnings, I know because I come on here. My dad got his season ticket last week and wasn't told. My lad got his yesterday and was told.

I got to the ground at 2:15 and the south east turnstiles where very busy so I met my mates and decided to try the south west corner.

We just got in for kick off and there were loads of people queuing behind us. Surely they should have got to the point where they realised it wasn't working and instructed the stewards to go down the line and tell people to rip voucher 1 out for themselves.

It'll be interesting to see if they do the same at the next home game.
