Given that the 'early bird' concessions are designed to bring in money when there is otherwise less opportunity for the club to generate income, it's understandable, if this is true, that the club don't use credit card payments.

But I'm not at all sure if that's how credit card companies/banks do operate, or whether it's just how they treat all or certain football clubs.

What i cant get me head round, does a debit card payment not go out right away?
