Excellent should be far quicker to get served now

Poor shame for russ having to go round with card reader for his raffle though!

I believe we are still taking cash in the trust shop and the half time draw tickets

Ridiculous idea imo, for the young and the elderly. As for the Barrow Eats idea - carnage.

I get it (and please don't patronise 'the elderly'), but a minimum £50 to load a child's FairFX card?!!!

So now you can apparently catch coronovirus by handling money?

I wasn’t patronising the elderly in any way, in my job I deal with a lot of older people who stress they can’t use ticket machines as they don’t use bank cards and prefer to pay cash, that’s all

Can see some awkward questions coming from my bank on my Bovril spend

If anyone is signing up for a Fair FX card as mentioned in the article, PLEASE, use the Trust's Easyfundraising page BEFORE you go to the page.

We can earn £3.50 from every sign up IF you go through our page first

Dont worry lads you can order your draft pints from the tally ho to be delivered to the fanzone all is well!

can understand the ticket side of it but all you have to do is tap your card on a machine to pay for something!,
we have a SLO WHERE was the consultation with the fans ? ffs that's his job!
Now we're told to contact him after the horse has bolted really poor from him !

How does this benefit any fan? If you have been to Barrow Rugby and tried to use the Barrow Eats app for drinks you’ll see what absolute carnage it is and end up waiting an hour for a drink.

Uploading £50 for a kid? What planet are they on?

Old folk who don’t have an app and draw out a specific amount of money to spend? Then have to fight their way through a crowd to get their tea at half time?

By all means, if you need to make tickets cashless to help the flow of fans then do so. But I can see many bringing their own food as drink and/or using local pubs rather than the new fan zone.

My feeling is that when you start giving people full time jobs, people get busy and look for ‘innovative’ ideas to justify their role/worth. Often they forget about what is best for the majority of fans.

I don't think this is a good step at all. The negatives far outweigh the positives.

That's why there should have been some consultation Matty!
