Alcohol is available to purchase in the away end, along with soft drinks and hot drinks. The usual offering of burgers and pies amongst other snacks will also be available.

What time do the turnstiles open?

The turnstiles usually open around 90 minutes before kick off, so this would be 6.15pm for our match.

Can I get a programme?

Programmes should be available. They are usually £3 but may be cheaper with it being a cup match.
