I said last year that I was amazed that the stadium isn't card only for everything. You might like to use cash but lots of places are going card only. Banks are few and far between nowadays so banking the takings is a pain in the neck. ...problem is many public car parks still require you to pay with cash so I always carry a supply of coins with me.

Last year if you tried to do that, you were directed to the website where you had to buy a ticket online like everybody else. That said, I believe you can pay on the gate (card only) for the greyhounds, so perhaps they’ve introduced that for 2023. Is that the case? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I've gone on with is that what it says more or less is that tickets are available on the day subject to availability and a price increase from the advance price. Just copied and pasted the bit from the website. 2023 Pay On The Day Ticket Prices – Online Pay On The Day E-Ticket Oxford Cheetahs Matches – Adults 16yrs+ £22 – Accompanied Children Under 16yrs Free Oxford Chargers Matches – Adults 16yrs+ £14 – Accompanied Children Under 16yrs Free The mention of E Ticket suggests its buy through the website Edited March 5, 2023 by Triple.H.
