If you mean physically hand over cash or tap your card at the turnstile itself then absolutely not.
This would seem to the easiest way to do it, or am I missing something?
Ordinarily on a match day you can’t hand over cash or tap your card at the turnstiles. You have to queue to get a ticket at the window located where the home end snack bar used to be near fanzine / Iron Trust corner, or go and get one from the main office. I imagine there is a reason for this, and I don’t see it changing for the Play Offs.

Everyone who really wants a ticket will get one.
Is there any members of the forum or anyone they know can honestly claim that they wanted to a ticket for an SUFC home match but weren’t able to get one either online or by visiting the ticket office or via telephone?
No, didn’t think so.It’s not a complaint about the availability of tickets. It’s about the inconvenience to all concerned, especially the club staff and systems, when there is an unnecessarily narrow on-sale window.

Do you not think it’ll be pay-on-the-gate?

Are people just frustrated that they can’t post a screenshot of their ticket on their social media?
I think it’s more generous than that – ie. it’s an awareness of the (admittedly short term) undue strain this is likely to put on club resources, plus the hassle involved for those people who don’t buy digitally having to go down to a very busy club office within a very limited timeframe to, probably, queue for ages.

It’s possible that those from recent years might be the subject of gagging orders. Surely any manager between Laws and Nelson (inclusive) will have tales to tell if able. (Maybe leave out those that would send the crowd to sleep before they got to the interesting bits. You know who I mean!)
There was the sense (during Laws’s bit at the Kevin Keegan event) that he was unable to talk about the Peter Swann years, so I suspect you are absolutely correct about NDAs being in place.
Turnbull only half-heartedly tried to draw Laws out on Swann, and it was obvious this was more Turnbull putting Laws on the spot to make him uncomfortable for a laugh between them.
It was also equally clear that there was plenty Laws could say about Swann but wouldn’t, or would say about Swann but couldn’t.

Hopefully no injuries and or red cards in the last 2 fixtures
I think the worst case scenario would be Whitehall getting injured or suspended and having to play Elliott in the play offs.
Start with Whitehall on Saturday, go for it from the off, and once it’s clear we’ve won the game take him off. Then don’t play him at Gloucester.

If it goes in our favour there’ll be plenty of Hand Solos.

10 (seats) x 23 (games) x 18 (terrace price) = £4,140
I’d say 3k is a massive undersell.

Anyone else sick of his embarrassing antics? That trap door that seemed to launch him not long after he came on must surely be dug up from the pitch. If he put half the effort he puts into cheating into motioning towards the ball in the box he might actually become a good player, as it is he just waits for the ball,1st thing you’re taught not to do.
Despite the fact he’s scored quite a few goals this season I think Whitehall has suffered from playing as a lone striker. The JD system highlights the shortcomings in his game (including what you mention) when, actually, there’s a very good player in there.

I reckon when you consider the recent online behaviour of our fans this twitter post has to be considered extremely irresponsible
It’s also highly unprofessional. I expect more from my football club, even when passions are running high.

What you mean blokes pushing 60 not wanting to risk getting battered by a load of drunk (quite possibly coked up too nowadays) fitter youths / young men? Get real! I’ve already said I’ve made remarks in the past and got punched for it. Maybe time for younger guys who heal quicker and better to start saying something? Or better still, for the perpetrators to learn some respect and civility? Too much coke and drink flying about these days, as frequently glorified or humoured on the Facebook page.
It’s not just a punch-up anymore, it’s the risk of a knock-over and repeated head-stamp, too.
