How does cash at the gate work?

Much as I'm tempted to make some joke about writing a cheque...the OP is actually asking a valid question.

There will be some gates accepting cash and it will be well signposted. Pay your dosh and sit in a vacant seat.
 
Ta all haha

Just meaning is it only certain gates, and do you just get whatever the next seat in the bundle is?

Never done pay on the gate.
 
From the Huddleboard:

Turn up at the gate, find someone bigger than you, squeeze tightly up against them and get in for free. Blozzer in the bog is a given.

Couple of Hail Mary’s and you’re good to go the following weekend.

Seriously though, you hand over a tenner and a wee lassie with a torch escorts you to your seat.
 
Come on to f*ck mate, I know you hand over a tenner at a gate and then go in. Is it really ridiculous to ask if seats are allocated and if it's only specific gates?

It is FF BlueBear81. What else did you expect? In addittion it is FF on Saturday night. Half the board is half scooped and posting nonsense, another half is fully scooped and posting absolute nonsense. The third half (see what I mean) are teetotallers who never go out on a Saturday and through lack of alcohol are permanently upset and therefore always post nonsense.
 
You stand in the boys queue with your full beard and Harrington, half pissed and still drinking beer and they let you in when you give them the money. ;)

It's been a while since I've paid at the gate.

The rest of the posts are funny, but he thought he'd heard all...nevermind.

Got a ticket online as I just couldn't figure all this out...do I just pick that up at the gate?

Nope at the ticket office or portacabins close by if office shut.

Normally to plan ahead for pay at the gate the club deliberately don’t sell tickets for a certain area (Copland Rear for example) then make all CR turnstiles cash only and it’s up to you to just sit wherever you like.
 
Jeezus I’m old.

How easy it is to forget that some of the pups on here have no experience of handing over cash to get in to a game.

Or the lead man going through first, the rest them handing him the three crate loads of cans of beers through so he can guard them when the rest of the lads then pay and clunk through the turnstiles to catch up with the cargo. :D

Cheers bud, I was fishing with the ticket pickup question, but thanks for the decent reply.

I get your point. I am old enough to remember paying in but I would have to ask if you sit anywhere or get a ticket with an allocated seat at the turnstile etc? The "I have heard it all" are the words of somebody who has led a very sheltered life!
 
You pay you’re money and they rip you off a ticket. You go to said row and seat on the ticket.

You can use any Barr’s Irn Bru glass bottle tops that have 20p too 50p marked on the top, they are heavy to carry and you you are not permitted to take the bottles past the turnstiles into the match but they can be used as currency so I guess if you have the 50p bottle tops 20 would get you in without having to hand over cash ?

20p ones looking at 50 maybe do part cash and bottles ?
