    I've said before that the whole entry 'inconvenience' is an excuse used by people that are just looking for one. You can walk up to Dens and buy a ticket for The Coxy without having to deviate your journey, same with Main Stand. You might have a slight detour if you want one for The Derry, but if you're that concerned about the extra walk you just go into Coxy or Main - same price.

    You might need to queue for five minutes to get the ticket but once you have it the queue to get in is usually less than a minute - much less if you're smart enough to notice the queues in the Coxy are always shorter at the further away turnstiles. Rarely queues at the Main Stand turnstiles.

    Loads of different reasons contributing to lesser crowds, but ticketing arrangements us definitely one..

    No need whatsoever for stands to be all tix

    You know the reasons for ticket only turnstiles.

    I reckon one cash turnstile in The Coxy could be easily justified - again for reasons that we all know it's not possible in The Derry.

    really is about time this q'ing twice to get in was looked at
    absolute nonsense imo
    last season i about turned twice and went home
    buckie game this season i was about off again after standing in a q over 100 deep only to get a third from the front and the steward to say that there was actually 2 turnstiles open
    anyone who defends the present entrance policy is sadly out of touch with the fans views

    3k people desending on the club shop for a tkt would tip some overboard never mind 30k

    You know full well that the safety certificate doesn't allow cash turnstiles in The Derry.
