Just googled NFC pass, it should be a kind of digital ticket

I did, what does nfc stand for?
And what about ticket cash, what's that?

NFC = Near Field Communication
Same technology as your mobile phone would use for GooglePay /ApplePay

They're probably going to use mobile phone entry then if that's what's appeared

NFC is when you connect two devices from a close distance. Like when you hold your season ticket against the scanner when you go in the ground. Maybe they've set something up so you can just do it with your phone on entry, rather than activate your season ticket?

I’m all for this going forward. Defo a better chance to stop the touts. These 2,000 tickets would sell for more than a Led Zeppelin comeback gig  ;D

I spoke to a lad in the ticket office, basically ST holders have an option to list a small number of friends and family on their accounts- about 6 he thinks, they can then use the ST but not via the card- they must have the ticket loaded into their NFC enabled phone which they would use at the turnstile, this then guarantees touts cant sell ST’s on at inflated prices as the purchaser won’t be able to load the ticket

Will members be able to do the same with any friends and family?

Wouldn't the STH just had the card out to someone though if they were touting ?

Couldn't any potential tout just list 6 names/mates on the ST account, then get 6 phones and hand them out to whoever they are touting the ST to?

So are you saying that Season Ticket Holders have to use the NFC pass as well when they go to the game.

If not then surely the user can still send use the season ticket like the season ticket holder would.

What if you haven't got a smart phone? how would you get in.

I still cant get my head around people handing over their passport to a complete stranger, in a foreign country. The same stranger that's just absolutely robbed you blind for your ticket.

All for a game of football. You'd risk being stranded abroad for it. It's madness really.

Given that the club still haven't said anything yet, and how long it normally takes them to get even the most straightforward of sales arranged, it honestly wouldn't surprise me if they decided not to bother doing the 2,000 for the first couple of games, and they say that they haven't yet put a system in place.

So 1,500 for them (from Liverpool only) and the rest for hospitality and players etc.

Hospitality will be Liverpool only also, as it’s all general allocation.

That announcement is kind of worrying. Maybe foreshadows that the club will use 18/19 credits when the ground opens up to full capacity again... I only got 12 🙄

I think that they are using 18/19 for credits due to how members last season who got to 15 games may have not been on 13 the previous season, so hadn't done fan update.

Excited to see the ways they can fuck this up!

Just kidding, glad after so long some will be getting the chance to see a game. Might not be all of us who gets to see one for now, but should raise spirits a bit, just hope it goes with major incidents

That scares me.

Totally fine with the local thing (I don’t qualify) it’s the going back to 18-19 season.

I hope that doesnt become a thing when full capacity is back.

I cannot remember but I think I missed Fulham and Cardiff due it being the free for all games.

Last season I was on for 19/19.

Thinking about it is seams to happen like that every other season for me.

They have said 75% of the 2,000 are for general sale to Liverpool city region fans so that's 1,500 local tickets.

Just checked how many I got 19/20 and it was 13/15. I distinctly remember the two games I didn’t get - Newcastle - wedding and partner was best man. Leicester - mums 60th birthday.

Would have gone down well if I missed them 😂
