ID checks for away tickets

This could get all big brother in the end. Imagine if they start to cross reference purchases in the ground against names on tickets. West Ham for example, I admit I did go in on another persons ticket who couldn't attend, but then I spent with one of my cards in buying a round of drinks. Officially I wasn't in that ground, yet I spent money in there.
There are plans to have facial recognition replacing tickets within the next 10 years

Your face will be your ticket to open the turnstiles like how you unlock your phone.
 

When your bank knows every penny spent, the supermarket knows what bog-roll you use and there's a digital tracking device in your pocket... what are you volunteering to keep secret?
Not you personally mate. Everybody. There was an argument against ID cards in the '90s, but not now.

Don't say that mate. I live 3 miles from Spuds and the Arse, and travelling 600 miles is the only way I get to see us play! ;)
You should be forced to follow the Orient to save the planet for future generations

My god they will have to be really sophisticated to recognise those Neanderthals on Tyneside.
