stu_mfc Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Whole process was pretty painless. Ticket paid for and on my phone. Happy days. That Morton didn't think to tell any of us until yesterday on the other hand.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add to that the fact that people think it's physical tickets needing bought just makes it worse. The official Facebook page was swarmed with yer das moaning about how clubs at this level don't need all ticket etc when actually Ayr have made it perfectly easy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morton to blame for lack of communication this time. Buying the tickets was a skoosh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The official Facebook page was swarmed with yer das moaning about how clubs at this level don't need all ticket etc when actually Ayr have made it perfectly easy. The only problem being that for older folk or anyone not using technology (or deciding to turn up on the day) - they have to queue twice. Things were seemingly better on Saturday though so hopefully the 'pay at the club shop' system will work without too much hassle. I'm glad so many folk have got their tickets bought already - and you're right Morton should've let their fans know immediately. No excuse for that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well they don't really, no club really needs to but that's the way it's going these days and to be fair to Ayr they have indeed made the process very smooth, Morton on the other hand are haddies stuck with a useless waste of money electronic turnstile with a shanty online ticket purchase scheme, thanks again Iron Man.

But who could have possibly predicted a few years ago that a scannable code on your phone would prove more useful than some shan card/ticket/turnstile effort instead?

Let’s also add that instead of getting someone in to create an easy function on the site that sends you to a page to screen shot your ticket, we instead have that bronzed devil Lesley Ann licking 2nd class stamps and sending them out, or have people queue up at a refurbished burger stall. The legacy of Iron Man lives on! Edited July 31, 2019 by M0rtonfc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought the queues at the turnstile looked longer than usual but on the flip side moved a lot quicker. Totally sold on it now I've used it, the next step would probably be to launch an app but that requires time and money. The website works perfectly fine for now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, but.... i can just go on the Ayr site and purchase a concession. We NEEDED to spunk £130k on the shan turnstiles because literally HUNDREDS of Morton fans were immorally and unlawfully claiming concessions, denying Morton of THOUSANDS of pounds of their rightful money. We are in a much better financial position now since we cracked this whole sorry affair... Edited July 31, 2019 by Jamie_M 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a guy in front of me on Sat, prob in his 50s, who asked for a concession ticket and the wee lassie asked for ID./Proof. The guy said he didnt have any, never had to provide any before etc and she just processed a concession for him. Warren would be mortified. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
