Every person attending a match will have to purchase an appropriate ticket irrespective of age.

Any person attempting admission with an invalid concession ticket, or is unable to provide proof of concession entitlement, will be refused entry on that ticket and no refund will be issued. The Home Match Ticket will remain the property of the Club at all times and must be produced together with evidence of your identity if required to do so by any official, steward or employee of the Club or any police officer. The Club reserves the right to require the immediate return of the Home Match Ticket at any time.

The Club reserves the right to reschedule any Match without notice and without any liability. Where any Match is cancelled, abandoned or postponed, the Club shall not have any liability to you or your Guests, except that following any cancellation, abandonment or postponement of a Match you shall be entitled to attend the rearranged Match using the Home Match ticket purchased for the original Match date or via such application procedure as the Club shall publish on its Website as applicable.
Upgrading of Season tickets must be requested at least 24 hours prior to kick off and can be undertaken either at the Ticket Office or over the telephone.

Family Seating:
- Tickets in the JobServe East stand (The Family Area) can only be purchased with the intention that an adult and child, up to and including 18 years of age, attend and enter the ground together.
- Each paying adult is able to bring four U11s for free with their ticket. Please be aware that if you are an individual adult purchasing more than four tickets for children under the age of eleven, you will have to pay a small charge for each additional child.
- In the interests of safeguarding, each paying adult is allowed to purchase a maximum of eight child tickets (either U11s, U14s or U18s).
- We do understand that there may be times that the child will not be able to attend the game, but we do not want to penalise the adult(s) by not allowing them to attend.
  Therefore:
  - Season Ticket Holders will need to contact the Ticket Office of their wish to attend without the accompanying child, giving the date of the game in question; this should take place no later than 24 hours before the day of the game.
  - This then allows us to notify the Safety Officer and Turnstile Operators so that they will give you access to your usual place.
  - Matchday Ticket Holders will be asked to move to another block within the ground either at the same cost or as an upgrade.
- If the Season Ticket Holder is a child and cannot attend a particular game, another child within the specified age bracket could use the ticket, or if you have sought permission at least 24 hours in advance of the game in question, we would consider upgrading the ticket to allow another person to attend with you.
- All of these options are subject to monitoring and will be at the discretion of the Safety Officer and Ticket Office Team Leader.
