Coppice padlock problem

Went to Coppice this morning, but could not get in due to a problem with the padlock.
I am not sure if it's me being a dickhead, but I tried about 20 times (with the new number on the membership card) but it would not open. I tried in 3 positions and ensured the numbers were lined up correctly.
Does anybody else have a problem with this lock?
I ended up going to Mythe Farm pool and done a 4 hour stint on the waggler, catching 50 or so beautiful looking rud. So not all was lost.

From memory I think you line it up either middle or top then push down slightly on the clasp to release it. Others who go more regularly may correct me

Dickhead here!
Yes that's me. I was only trying last years number as I hadn't realised it changed for 2020.
Went today and gained entrance only because I looked at this years membership card, instead of last years.
Had a decent day on the silvers - had a decent perch of about one and a half pounds, fishing the waggler and maggot. Also hooked into 2 of those carp, no chance of landing these on my set up. More chance of Boris Johnson combing his hair!
