Stadium Turnstile Upgrades

Spoke to a man on the phone from City today as I had a few questions about next season. I mentioned the new turnstiles and he was pretty confident in the next few years, facial recognition will be used for fans entering the stadium.

Of course it will. It's life and in all walks of live we are moving with the times. Technology is advancing all the time and City won't be the only club getting this in. We just have to crack on i'm afraid. Personally can't see an issue.

One step closer to facial recognition upon entry

Security are scanning for known shop lifters at entry points, stores loose untold millions a year to shop lifting self service tills lose them money as well but, clearly less than the cost of staff to man tills The world is now covered by CCTV

Someone gets beat up - can’t get in the ground as face looks a mess and then loses their season ticket for not attending enough games..
 
You make me happy when?

I'm far from a conspiracy theorist mate, but like many other fans I'm suspicious of where this might lead to. And it's not like the club have covered themselves in glory on certain issues over the past few years. The disabled parking fiasco, for example, led to a total climbdown when fans pushed back, yet instead of apologising the club came out with a bullshit statement about it never being their intention to bring it in.

And it was 'always their intention' to release new season tickets with the opening of the new stand. Despite City Matters reps telling us numerous times there wasn't any plans to release any new season tickets. Seems to be their go to line whenever they meet resistance. Hardly any wonder people are cynical.
 
This is not just connected to the turntstiles of course and more of a wider range of issues but the turnstiles fall under this. Im almost 60 and currently hate the world and its creeping technology on our lives. Yes I understand all the pros and the negatives and yes im a grumpy old bastard but i hate the way everything is being taken away from us. I detest using self service. I like to talk to people, i feel its fucking important for humans to do that, to say hello and pass the time of day. We are social creatures and ive not been trained by Sainsburys, Asda and Tesco's to do their job and save them money employing people.

The way it's going there will eventually be more people out of work than in work. My wifes a therapist in a school and the issues dealing with kids and issues with social media and mobile phones is unprecedented. I don't want to join in with everything being forced upon me. The only alternative is to accept it or if you stick to your principles and ideas then you have to remove yourself from things you want to do in life. There is no other option.

Its not just football, its not just turnstiles, but like a few other things in life I will have to think long and hard about continuing to take part and be a match going supporter once this takes effect. Maybe its my age, maybe its just me that doesnt like conforming to everything were told is good for us but im tired of it all.

There certainly is an age element in it. I’m 62 and hate it all.

What a wonderful post, fair fucks to you sir for articulating it so well
As for the lickspittle “if you’ve done nothing wrong then suck it up” idiots, how happy would you be with the police raiding your house every fortnight on zero evidence while eating your dinner on a Saturday?
Same thing, same applies, guilty until proven innocent. After all, rules are rules

When i go shopping at a supermarket, it's early as I don't like to wait in a queue for ages, there's no one to serve me on the tills but sometimes a manager will say you can do self service, in which I always reply how much do I get a discount as im doing someone out of a job, and every time they get someone to serve me
