Thats great, but why would a business care about that?
Fwiw if I just dealt in cash only I’d probably ave gazillions 
Never been easier to buy a ticket though, that is pure fact.

They get more from people paying in cash as card transactions cost the business a fee…
And yes it’s very easy!
I don’t think football clubs are allowed to process transactions at the turnstiles due to safety and security issues…. Imagine a local derby and rogue away fans paying on entry to unauthorised areas of the ground - it could be carnage for the stewards and police etc
Besides which and as others have said, it’s easy to purchase tickets on line or at the ground - don’t see an issue myself…
I used to go on about the queues in the car park but since downloading a ticket became so easy it isn’t so much of an issue now. I reckon around 95% of fans are sorted before the day or sort themselves on the day which means for those who want to walk up and pay at a window, there’s barely a queue.
As for todays game. Another tough one. Holloway reckons he’s gonna attack us, which might help us.
I’m going to go 2-1.
With them bringing 1,100 I’d have hoped for 7,000 plus but think it’ll be more like 6,450 given how sales look as I type.

Another great gesture from the club respecting Jack’s lifetime of support - well done WFC

On our crowds it’s odd. I think if we swapped with Bradford and we’re on the kind of run they’re on we’d get more down there today. That building of momentum for a right tilt at promotion and maybe the title. They’re absolutely loving life (different topic but isn’t it interesting how their fortunes have picked up since a certain Mr Cook became unavailable?) and are full of vim, vigour and excitement.
We’re seven points clear of them and yet because we’ve been top for so long there’s more or less a sense of “be interesting to see how we contrive to fluck this up” or maybe complacency.
Those of us there today (and I reckon it’s a good 500 less than if we’d been in the Bradford scenario) need to absolutely give it the full beans today. Everyone. Everything.

Benefits to the club of not accepting cash:
Paying by card means that the club has a record and traceability of the purchaser, whereas with cash they do not (likely a legal requirement) .
Cash has a tendency to disappear into peoples’ pockets.
Cash has to be counted / managed by someone at the club and then taken to a bank.
Banks don’t like dealing with cash and often put limits on it / charge businesses for handling it.
Many suppliers to the club won’t accept it as payment.
I don’t know the answer to this, but can you just rock up at the ticket office with no ticket history, and buy a ticket without giving your personal details, such as address?
When I buy a ticket by phone, I just give my postcode and they pull up the details on th3 system - again gives them traceability.
Really need Salford to do us a huge favour today. Otherwise the pressure to get a win really is on!
2-1 saddlers

Our 7 point cushion could become 4 by the time we kick off today as Bradford have an early sky start at Salford, for once in my life I’m hoping the manc backed outfit can do us a favour.

Bought my Carlisle tickets with cash and had to give post code, so I guess that’s how they control it.

From Walsall ticket office, or at Carlisle?
I thought Walsall were completely cashless.
Really looking forward to this, my first home match since Crewe in November. Hoping for a better result than that but a draw would be a disappointment rather than a disaster.

Actually your right haha yeah that was card. But they wanted my details. Ignore me!
I’m not talking about today when it is a big following but there have been some games where I have heard stewards directing away fans to the away end without getting a ticket from the ticket office.
What is happening there, are they selling them outside the away end or something?
On the grass
Swindon will be smokin Doobies !!!
I’m not talking about Walsall here, or even just about cash. People are far too willing to accept things they don’t like. I include myself in that, of course, I’m no better. As a society, we just get bent over all the time and just take it.
Really need a week where we win and everyone else around us drops points.
Seems in the last few weeks that when we win, everyone else wins and when we lose, everyone else loses

I think weve had a decent rub of the green with those below messing about. Only Bradford who have come from a long way have had real momentum. Cooky even though missing from action has still come to haunt us lol
