so why do the tickets for the terrace (block d by the way) also have a row and seat number :scratch:

D1, row D, seat 6. Does seem a bit specific for a terrace. Good luck to whoever has to try and herd us lot into shape at that time of night.

The row and seat numbers on the terrace tickets have amused us home supporters as well. :scratch:

Basically I think that it's the only way that the ticketing software can count how many tickets have been sold for each block.

The terrace is divided into four blocks and tickets are marked accordingly. You will only be admitted to the block shown on your ticket.

...

See you on Friday.

Good that they've learned from Twickenham and are catering for our 'nation'!


This is worrying me -
As of the Saints versus Glasgow game in October 2012, every food and drink outlet at the Saints is Barclaycard contactless, meaning any purchase of £20 or less can be made with just a swipe of your compatible Barcalycard at the till.
Does anyone know if that only works with Barclaycard, or does it work with any credit card that has the contactless chip thingy?

The contactless payment is, as far as I know, Barclaycard only at the moment - but they all still take cash as well.
