Jason Turner update

[Chicken Balti Pie]

Just had an email from the club which confused me a bit saying:

We can't wait to welcome you back to Meadow Lane on Saturday!

As we won't be issuing you with a new card this season, we recommend you double check you haven't misplaced yours well in advance of matchday.

If you have, please email [email protected] ASAP and we'll be happy to help you.

Furthermore, we have been working hard to enable those who opted to receive a digital season ticket to use this method from Saturday onwards.

Unfortunately, however, we have encountered difficulties during set-up and therefore digital passes will not be in operation this weekend. Please therefore ensure you bring your physical card with you.

We apologise for the inconvenience and are determined to resolve this issue ahead of the Chesterfield match.

I've been sent a new card by post which looks exactly the same as last season. I'll take both along on Saturday just to be on the safe side.

So what's this 'digital' ST? Presumably something you load on your phone? I was held up before the Forest PSF by people struggling to get a scannable image on their phone. I realise that phones now rule the world, but is it really so difficult to take a plastic card to the game?

The digital card is one that lives in Google Wallet or Apple Pay on your phone. If you have your phone set up to do tap and pay, it will use the same app, depending on app of course but I'm sure they mentioned Apple Pay and Google Wallet/Pay was supported which are the two main ones anyway.

Basically, you'll go to your list of registered cards on your phone, select your season ticket and I'm assuming either it'll present a barcode for them to scan or they'll have a tap and go machine set up? I'd assume it's the barcode though

So much more material for your money as well. A 5XL could lose some weight and make 2 shirts out of his one.

A 5XL losing weight would be advisable on so many levels.

I know it's far from your fave listen but Langstaff is on tonight:

Thanks for the explanation, I think I'll stick with the little plastic card.

Surely if you were a medium you'd have known that beforehand?

He's no medium.

Hahaha, I wish there was a like button.

I didn’t know 5 xl existed before Jason’s update, but now I do I want to try one on Saturday. Were they created for some the more sociable members of Nolan’s 2018 squad?

That's 2 of us

So! It's looking like I'll get my season ticket after the 1st home game the way tye delivery is going

Although I'm a tad too old, down here in Olde London Town the tech savvy can get to work via bus and tube, buy lunch and a birthday card and gift for mum, then have a couple of post work beers before heading home all paid for by your (smart) watch let alone your mobile phone.

It's really quite the thing.

Looks like the club are covering all ages and all tech abilities with the options available.

When you renewed your ST you had the option to keep your old card, have a digital pass for your phone or request a new card which incurred an extra £2.50ish for postage. I opted for the new card which I received back end of last week. I'm not sure what the options were if it was a new purchase and not a renewal but can understand why some might have found it confusing. Not great if you are yet to receive your ST. I would suggest calling the ticket office and asking them to have it ready for collection on match day or have a match ticket to your seat number ready for collection on the day.
