Queuing systems will be in place for all food and drink outlets, please ensure you adhere to social distancing and wear face masks unless you are sat at your table. Eating or drinking standing up is not permitted, we ask for your co-operation to ensure this does not take place. 

If supporters don’t abide by the new regulations and attempt to take drink into the other stands, we risk having to stop all alcohol consumption on match days and even potentially a further capacity cut. Thank you for your understanding.
