After several recent incidents on the East Terrace and following health & safety advice, the Club has reluctantly decided to close part of the East Terrace on match days to protect ourselves from any further fines and sanctions from the FA.
There have been several occasions in recent months when we have received negative FA/match official reports, which have resulted in an Independent Regulatory Commission closely monitoring our games in liaison with the FA.
We acknowledge that it is a very small section of spectators that are causing the problems and we have already issued some behaviour agreements recently but the problems have persisted despite warnings online and over the PA system.
We would encourage all supporters to report any antisocial behaviour they may witness to the nearest steward or to text any such information to mobile number 07874 615 397, a facility that has been in place for a number of years.
The partial closure of the East Terrace will begin when Needham Market visit on Saturday 23rd September and will be in place for the foreseeable future.
Apologies in advance for any inconvenience to the well behaved majority of our supporters that use the East Terrace.
