Can we pay on the gate at Weymouth or do we have to pay in advance?

As I read it, their website says no payments at turnstiles, but tickets to be purchased from ticket office to the right of the stand, before, reaching turnstiles!
Cash or card at the office, or purchase beforehand by e.mail.

From their website.
General Sale of Match Day tickets for Away supporters. Availability will depend on match restrictions.
Tickets for either Terrace or Seats available online, or from the Ticket Office on a matchday (cash or card) - buying your ticket online is the same price, but will mean no queuing at the ticket office, which is open 1.5 hours before kick off.
Certain segregated games may be ticketed only

It's not been that unusual to buy at a ticket office and then proceed to a turnstile, particularly for the levels above us. From the home club's perspective, the cash is only in one place, so far easier to manage and, dare I say it, making it impossible for any cash-related "leakages" at the turnstiles.
But, things have changed. I'd genuinely be interested into how many turn up for our home games still proffering cash. I'll guess it's far fewer when compared with even a few years ago.
I used to always have a £50+ float of cash in my wallet, but these days I often go out with little or no cash on me at all.
It's getting to the stage where a club's admission price is £x, but paying cash = £x plus some more, because the banks charge so much for handling cash.
Obviously those using non-League football for money-laundering purposes may not be happy with this trend. Good.

On a tangent but the whole cash only versus card only debate bonusesemused me. I was in a pub in Portsmouth the other day and the landlord was moaning about the charges when I paid by card. I was going to point out that the previous pub had been card only and the barman there had mentioned the charges for handling cash, but didn't ewnt to get into a debate.
