I am predicting chaos at the turnstiles before tomorrows first game of the season v Tottenham. This afternoon you can't get through on the helpline for mobile ticket issues for this game and it has been going on for weeks.
The first game of the season is going to be a nightmare at the turnstiles and City know it !
 
I anticipate some fans will not have downloaded their tickets from mancity.com or their emails. I think in the previous season there was no reason to do that. That may catch some people out.
 
Go back to when they made it all digital ticketing only and there was a collective shitfest on here before hand predicting widespread chaos for weeks in the run up to the game. As it happens, there was nothing of the sort. There might be some problems, especially with the technologically illiterate but I suspect the process of gaining entry into the ground will be swifter if anything.

I hope you are right but I think the end users technical know how will be a minor issue tomorrow.

Tomorrow is going to be going chaos, I've been told that around 9k fans haven't downloaded for tomorrow. So if you have any ticket issues expect to be in a big queue. When I rang Fan Support today the guy on the phone told me it's been a massive issue for them. Feel sorry for the staff having to put up with these shit systems we get in. If it's not broke don't fix it.

This is the feedback I am getting.
 
I'm predicting Carnage not chaos. The turnstiles at Entrance J would just not NFC my phone, despite everywhere else on the earth allowing me to tap and go.

Hopefully these new readers are more reliable, but i think a big problem will be people who haven't downloaded their new tickets, forgot to enable NFC or are using old school thick leather cases that block the signal.

Removing the ability to can a code tomorrow won't help, but it'll all sort itself out soon enough.

My 14-year-old cousin has a problem every time she goes in the ground tbf. She gets her ticket transferred but the scanners just don't recognise her phone. She has to be let in via key every week. Hopefully this new system will actually get her in the ground first time. No idea why we can't just go back to them plastic cards we had, or back to the old paper system so the club can pay someone to check it and give a kid a job for 3 hours on a Saturday.

Based on last season's game, not getting in might be a mercy.
