Please don't shout at me about this but I have been asked to pass on a message that Turnstile 8 ISN'T open.
Apparently it is on the season tickets by mistake and the turnstiles are the same as last year.
As I said PLEASE don't shout at me...................................................

Why isn't turnstile 8 open.,
Typical council inteference with sport again.
About time we had a revolution.

2nd thouoghts, maybe thats a bit extreme.

north stand -season ticket holders should be able to use turnstile 8.
its a long way to bottom of car park and then to walk along front of north stand, when it is raining. dont forget we have already walk from broadway were we park the car.
it will be a long winter if we cant use turnstile 8 . - come on board help us out.
our gates / crowd wont be that big.
it might be better in the future to pay cash and go through turnstlie 8, but the trouble with paying cash you dont go to every game.

Dammit, I just read an email from MFC confirming that turnstile 8 is a mis-print and that 5 & 6 are the ones to use.

Seems to me that the extra walk along the back of the Stand and then to your place on the Terrace via the Program sellers and the 'Open the Box' vendors is probably both educational and fitness-promoting! We coul end up with the fittest season-ticket holders in League 2!

dont for get we already walk from broadway were we leave the car, and on a rainy day its not very nice standing - soaked. I dont need to do a fitness promoting exercise. i am already fit i cycle to work every day in the rain. - priority to season ticket holders, not cash.

Incredible the things some people moan about, if your matchday experience isn't worth walking the length of the North stand or getting a bit wet sometimes (umberella is a useful device), give your season ticket to someone else and stay at home with your feet up fella. ;)

Seriously..... if you're a season ticket holder then you will know week in week out which turnstile to use at the far end of the car park, but if you're visiting the ground for the first time then you have to pay cash, surely it makes both financial and logistical sense to use turnstile 8 on Lancaster Road where new supporters are more likely to congregate and look for a cash entry point. We do want to make it easier for new fans don't we ?

YEAH! Extra 80 yards each way be my reckoning. That's ...errr...3680 yards to walk each season (except when I need a pre-match pie). Or err...some miles and a bit.

Actually I'm joking. trueshrimp .... cheer up mate.
