Plymouth Argyle are the visitors to the Jonny-Rocks Stadium on Sunday and our information guide should provide you with the information you need to know about attending the game.
Kick-off on Sunday is at 3pm and tickets are available to purchase online with fans advised to buy before midnight on Saturday to save £2 on matchday prices.
As our capacity is less than 10,000, and our standing capacity is less than 4,000, supporters are not required to carry out Covid certification to attend the game.
We encourage fans to take lateral flow tests before heading to the stadium and to not attend if suffering from COVID-19 symptoms or needing to self-isolate.
Supporters are also asked to wear face coverings when indoors, on public transport or in busy areas.
COVID-19 MEASURES
Due to capacity being less than 10,000, and standing capacity being less than 4,000, supporters are not required to carry our Covid certification to attend the match.
Fans are advised though to take a lateral flow test before attending, to wear face coverings in the correct areas and to not attend if suffering from any COVID-19 symptoms.
A 'Red Zone' is in place and this can only be used by specific personnel. This means that the pitch, tunnel, patio area and players entrance are all strictly out of bounds.
Social distancing from players and coaching staff is also to be maintained
The club's Safety Certificate has been updated for this season and Gloucestershire County Council, the issuing authority, make the following recommendations for attending matches:
• Use hand sanitizer stations at ground
• Maintain social distance from others not in your group as far as possible
• Wear face masks when entering via turnstiles, indoor concourses/refreshment areas, when leaving the ground and any crowded areas (apply personal preference to remove whilst seated)
• Follow stewards instructions and any social distancing signage when moving around, exiting the stadium and using toilet facilities etc.
• Consider taking a lateral flow test on day of game
• Don’t attend if you have symptoms or told to self-isolate
• Listen for any Covid 19 related PA announcements
PRE-PAID TICKET COLLECTIONS
Pre-paid tickets for the Autovillage Stand, Paddock, Tunnel and Prestbury Road End can be collected from the matchday collection point in the car park next to the bowling club.
Tickets for the Colin Farmer Stand can be collected from the new ticket booth located just outside the Parklands turnstiles. We advise fans to arrive early to collect these as we are expecting this area to be busy in the lead up to kick-off.
Away supporters can collect tickets from the entrance to the Hazlewoods Stand where they'll be located during the game.
