Why are you calling me out?
I'm interested in the opinion of an astute business person, you seem to know a lot about business.

To add to the posts about checking tickets, my u11 son and I get our season tickets checked before each game without fail. Also had to ditch a water bottle they discovered once as well.

Good lord.
The point was that STFC were making the stated aim of being more open and transparent than other clubs - the goal to be number 1.
The current CEO then responded to a question last night where he seemed more than comfortable with what we produce as being sufficient, when it is indeed more than the minimum, but nowhere near what CAN be done. Examples were provided and he seemed oblivious to them.
If the club wants to be number 1, then what they produce is clearly insufficient.
So either they a) up their game or b) change their stated aims
I am merely pointing to examples of what more openness looks like. From a little bit more, to a lot more. Every little bit more provides people step changes in how they can review the information - maybe Joe Bloggs gets little, but I can review Tranmere's accounts and give you a summary of their performance at a far more detailed level than I can for Swindon. With Carlisle's, I could probably get close to making some decisions on what to do with the business, so detailed are they.
You can't do anything with Tranmere and that's my point. I've said all along they can give more detail. Get off your high horse.

Checked how? Before you reach the turnstile? Which stand do you have STs for? I’ve never had mine, or Mrs Audrey’s, ST checked. Just rock up at the turnstile, scan the ticket and go in.

Be 69 in April. Mrs Audrey is a whippersnapper.
I know what you’re going to say, but I don’t look a day over 67.

I had mine checked before Mansfield. Not sure they knew what they were looking at but there was a delay. We probably use the same turnstile, mind.

You'd think it would be pretty easy to clamp down on this. The old Tube ticket gates used to flash up CHILD if you used a child's ticket, or it can beep at a different tone, alerting a steward. I really don't think this is the source of our issues somehow...

Like many things with the club, if they paid the money for the proper technology that shows what ticket fans are using, then they could avoid it. They won’t pay for it though.

ive had my ticket checked that its an adult one recently.
its the equivalent of Thames Water going after leaky taps, when the pipes are bursting all over the shop and sewage is being pumped into the sea.

This is the water. And this is the well. Drink full and descend. The horse is the white of the eyes and dark within.
