    What happens to people who can't arrive at the time chosen for them?

    Thats why I'm not going. No way am I sitting in my seat for a hour plus before kick off.

    That doesn't particularly bother me as such but with an 8:15pm kick off it seems a bit odd to expect people to rush straight from work.

    I don't blame the club because a lot of this is rushed and forced upon them by idiots but it baffles me that we are using turnstiles that need to be sanitised before each person can enter rather than opening the massive gates and simply having a ticket check point

    See they have scrapped the photo ID rule. I wonder what happens for people at full time as it would seem odd if everyone can leave at the same time when people could only arrive staggered.

    I can only assume that the staggered entry is due to the convoluted entry system they've had to implement. We won't be exiting via turnstiles or having to show tickets, empty bags etc

    More importantly do we need to take a plastic bottle to pee in? I definitely won't last for over 3 hours especially if it's a cold night!

    If it's a cold night I'd struggle to reach the bottle

    > You may, however, bring soft drinks in plastic bottles.

    Doesn’t state clearly. But I believe that’s what it means. Photo ID. Taking mine just in case. Not pretty mind.:)


    When you arrive at the stadium, you will be asked to show a form of identification to show that you are the person that the ticket was issued to. Your turnstile will be sprayed with sanitiser to ensure that it is clean before you touch it.

    I wonder why there is such an emphasis being placed on making sure that only the person who's name is on the ticket uses the ticket

    I'd imagine it's so that only season ticket holders can go, otherwise, I could have asked someone who didn't want to go to get a ticket for me to give to my dad.

    Presumably because there is a need to make sure the person whose phone has the ticket on it, is the person filling in the 'I don't have any symptoms' questionnaire.
