If you are going to the FA Cup replay tomorrow night please read this information

Our FA Cup 2nd Round Replay v Scunthorpe United on Wednesday 17th December 2014 - 7.45pm Kick Off replay is officially Sold Out.

Anyone without a valid match ticket will not be able to gain entry to the game.

For many of you attending this may be the first time you have attended a Worcester City game at Aggborough. We want your experience to be a safe and pleasant one and with that in mind the following information will answer many of your questions.

With a large capacity expected at Aggborough we please ask that you arrive as early as possible as turnstiles and the surrounding area are likely to be extremely busy.

GENERAL GUIDANCE

Regrettably, due to a small number of incidents at our home against Greenwich Borough and away at Scunthorpe we will be undertaking searches at EVERY turnstile. We recognise that this may cause an inconvenience but we are determined to ensure that all supporters have an enjoyable experience. We would be grateful for your co-operation.

Anyone found to be in possession of illegal objects, particularly smoke bombs and flares will be refused entry, as will those in possession of or deemed to be under the influence of alcohol.

The club wishes every one of its supporters to get behind the team – you are the 12th man. However, we would ask you to do this in a sensible manner. Please remember that we are a community club and want to uphold that reputation. Foul and abusive chanting and language will not be tolerated and persistent offenders will be removed from the ground.

Although it was not done with any malice, the incursions onto the pitch at Scunthorpe were reported to the Football Association. Any further incursions may bring with it sanctions from the Football Association. Please therefore do not enter the pitch at any time during and after the game.

Carl and the Team are grateful for the support you give them and would like to acknowledge the contributions you as supporters make.

However they cannot do this if there are spectators on the pitch. Please therefore respect the players’ wishes and allow them to acknowledge your support.

CAR PARKING

Parking around the stadium is limited and this will result in supporters needing to find nearby parking.

We can confirm that all usual car parks are open including the overspills at the nearby Church and Skills Centre. For this game ONLY there will be no charge to park.
