In my opinion they should change the layout of season tickets each season to ensure no one gets in with old ones..
Also the Pepsi tickets the kids get..I know for a fact people got into grounds with 2004 versions last year would it not kill the cluubs to check these tickets and make the dishonest ones pay?
Our season tickets clearly say 2009 on the front, also they are scanned at the gate so you couldnt get in with an old one.
Youths ones were black last season and pink this year, with a photo of the League Cup squad on the back
My ticket for 2009 has a bar code so I assume they'll be swiping them at the gates in Tallaght. Also 2009 is quite clear. Surely a fan that went to the trouble and bought a ticket at some stage wouldn't try and scam in?
I doubt may people get into grounds with season tickets from previous seasons. Who ever would let them in with those at turnstiles would be very amateur
Agreed..Quote:

I know the tickets are scanned going into Terryland so there's no way it would work, and besides if you were a real fan why would you want to do this
but there is still ppl just out 4 themselves
Agreed, its a pity cos there doing their own club out of a bit of doshQuote:

Aren't clubs supposed to have measures to prevent this under licensing? Pats use individual tickets in a season book. Stopped using the card system about 4/5 years ago
I know most fans wouldnt do it but teenagers with 5 year old pepsi camp will.I have also seen them put there thumb over the club crest and get into away grounds doing it
If it's Ticketmaster involved then the barcodes are a standard feature from what I've seen at other clubs.Quote:

I saw the thread title and booked the rest of the week of work such will be the number of possible answers.
Ok this is what clubs should do. This is the kind of Marketing that we've been waiting for, Apres Match For The Rebel Army:
