How can fans prepare?
• Ensure you have a valid form of COVID certification in your possession before you leave for the ground, or you will not be permitted entry.
• The best form of Certification is the COVID pass. You can download the COVID digital pass using the designated NHS App (see below) or to your wallet or camera roll in case there is no signal.
• Bring your original printed NHS COVID Pass on the day of the fixture if you are unable to use the digital version.
• A negative Lateral Flow test result will be permissible should you be unable to provide a COVID pass.
• Make sure your passes are easily accessible to ensure efficiency and speed of access when approaching the turnstiles.
• We have seen already this season that changes in ticketing checks at the turnstiles can lead to issues with fans getting in in time for kick-off.
We advise all fans to be prepared and to get to grounds earlier than usual, as these extra checks could lead to increased queueing times to gain entry to the stadium.
Also, it should go without saying, but make sure that your phone is well charged if you’re going to be relying on it for proof of vaccine status for entry.
