As all members have a membership card surely it wouldn’t be to an issue to present the card when paying by either card or cash at the turnstile. No point in purchasing tickets via ticketsource for friendly matches.
Whilst recent incentives for membership are welcomed unless you live in the immediate Rushden area they are of little benefit.

But it's only around 15 minutes from Luton, so they probably knew that a lot of luton fans would turn up.
That must be incredibly lucrative for them, I know we tend to get fairly decent attendances from the Northampton friendlies but I wonder if we could be doing more to try and get a good payday from this fixture with a large attendance

It can be, yes, or you can get them in advance.

We’d really recommend getting tickets in advance to help the turnstile volunteers get people through the gates quickly, especially as we approach kickoff. We’re expecting a really good crowd.

Can we open the turnstile at the other end?? I'm happy to volunteer if manning the gate is an issue

Both turnstiles are due to be open tomorrow (I keep both ready to be opened on any match when asked). One entry may be for pre-purchased tickets - but that will be decided by the match day team, so look out for signage.

I'd be inclined to agree with you, but this again smacks of missed opportunity to reward membership, and promote early sign up.

£10 for standard entry, as mentioned others have charged this and more, but £5/6 for 2022/23 members.

Gain the few quid extra per head on those only here to see the league side, but also reward those loyal members who have already committed for the new season
Good feedback and idea. I will put this forward to the secretary and COO.
