Went on the Club website this morning , FB page and Fans FB page have threads.

No doubt about charges for cash as if cards don’t charge.Perhaps they could have “your cash transactions sponsored by” on a tannoy in the booth.They’ve seemingly monetised everything bar breathing

[64]

I’d Say Harness will rattle some cages and this gets resolved quickly

[Sanfran49]

Never have been a fan of ” This is it take it or leave it” !

I would stop buying any extras ! Don’t get it, this will alienate and at this time that is not the way to go.

It’s going to happen eventually but this seems rushed and I reckon a decision taken below board level.It will be repealed

Reading many of the comments most are against it offering up many reasons and some erring on calling the decision hypocritical.

Keep telling you the club are run by muppets and cant be trusted on what they say and do.
What’s the kids supposed to do are they supposed to have bank cards.
Want your cash for the season tickets but then go cashless for other things wtf
The club are really going that extra mile for the fans who’ve backed them all the way, how can a club who are supposedly strapped for cash be picky.

[MK Iron]

Thank goodness we will have some football to moan about soon.

Will there be a bigger own goal all season. Glad we can trust Michelle and tuthers on the board to look out for our best interests lol.

Seemingly Glanford Park is part of the global conspiracy of lizardmen to bring in the great totalitarian state of neo-Marxism via capitalist economics. Harness will be attending the WEF this year, no doubt.

yeah … What he said 5555

[Northumbiron]

And the cost of employing a security firm to collect the cash is?

Or perhaps one of the junior staff could pop down to Barclays on the High St and stick it in the night safe?

[Deereyme66]

I hear the sound of distant…piggy banks being smashed. Do muppets listen to supporter feedback and change decisions accordingly awaywego?

Someone has seen the reaction and acted and we can all agree rightly so, was it a Muppet who changed their mind or did it come from higher up, whichever that’s twice in a week now the club have had to react to fan dismay. The hierarchy need to get on top of it and stop upsetting fans, whoever it is needs a word it cant be allowed to carry on.

“In Michelle we Trust” questionable at the moment

[Deereyme66]

I think listening to supporters and reacting accordingly is a perfectly acceptable way to carry on. Trying to move the club to Ilkeston then Gainsborough wasn’t.

[MK Iron]

Listening to fans and acting accordingly has not happened for 10 years so let’s at least recognise progress.

[Awaywego]

Of course Deerey it’s good that they listened. But surely you can agree that there not getting it right on a regular basis and needs sorting.

[64]

Regular? I’d say they get it right most of the time .Us not agreeing doesn’t make it not right

Talk to the fans is much better, it helps build bonds. They have just experienced 13 years of being told and opinions ignored. Let us hope the new style stays.

[Awaywego]

Lol.Where’s the talk they’re just reacting to fans dismay.
The new style was started last year by Hilton he’d announce something then have to change when fans weren’t happy with it (training in ilkeston and the academy) nothings changed.

[ironfromafar]

What happened to the 1899 rip off ??? was that a cash deal , seems like an age ago when that was mooted.

[barriethomas]

If they had gone totally cashless and John Staff was still with us would people have had to buy 50/50 tickets by card ??? UTWI

No, 50/50 sellers still deal in cash at other grounds.
