Ahead of tomorrow's Emirates FA Cup game versus Chorley, we'd like to thank those who have purchased tickets as we prepare to test ourselves against Vanarama National League North opposition.
To gain entry to the game, ticket holders are asked to report to the gate adjacent to Turnstile 1 and have their ticket(s) ready for scanning on entry.
Almost 300 tickets had been sold by midday today and this will help greatly with getting fans into the APEC Taxis Stadium as quickly as possible, easing any potential congestion at the two turnstiles.
Both turnstiles are off Stockham Lane, which is the only access road into the stadium and car park.
There is ample on-site parking. Please park sensibly and considerately to ensure that no space is wasted and entry/exit routes are kept clear.
We particularly look forward to welcoming those travelling from Chorley and anyone visiting us for the first time.
Everyone at the club is committed to ensuring that all attending our games enjoy the experience and invariably, the feedback we receive suggests that this is the case.
Regrettably, we have recently been made aware of anti-social behaviour within the ground and involving a very small minority of fans, which is disconcerting to other fans.
This will not be tolerated. The club is closely monitoring the situation and will not hesitate to take firm action against the perpetrators, as necessary, should such issues persist.
There will be an increased security presence at the game.
Our security team will deal with any instances of public nuisance or unpleasantness promptly to ensure that enjoyment of others in the ground isn’t affected.
Equally unfortunate is recent social media activity which has seen not only our players but also their partners targeted for personal abuse.
This is also completely unacceptable and should it continue, we will deal with it appropriately. This is a final warning to those responsible.
Tickets for tomorrow’s game will be on sale until 2pm on matchday but the game is not all-ticket and at-the-gate admission will be available as normal with turnstiles opening at 1.30pm.
Admission is £10 for adults. £7 for concessions (65+, 19-22 year olds) and £2 for Under 18s.
Cash and card payments will be taken at Turnstile 1. Please note that Turnstile 2 is a cash-only entrance.
There is a fully-licensed clubhouse bar along with a tea bar selling hot food, confectionery, tea, coffee and soft drinks etc. Our Madri van will also be in operation.
Matchday programmes are online only while tickets for our 50-50 half-time draw (the prize being half of the takings) and for the Golden Goal will be on sale as usual.
We would appeal for fans' patience in any potential queues both inside and outside the stadium.
Please also respect our matchday staff and volunteers, who are here to serve and assist you.
Most of all, enjoy the occasion and the game!
