Hi all, re return of Fans to Moss Lane, just had the following email from Bill that has been sent to all Season Tic holders in last couple of hours...
From: Bill Waterson <bill@altrinchamfootballclub.co.uk>
Subject: The return of spectators to The J. Davidson Stadium
Dear Season Ticket Holders,
Thank you for your support through this season and thank you too for your patience in waiting to regain access to The J. Davidson Stadium. For you all the wait is over – I can state with 99% certainty that Season Ticket holders will be able to attend the Yeovil Town and Torquay United games in person. Trafford BC have confirmed that as a very minimum we will be able to accommodate you all for these two games. There is still one issue to be resolved before we can admit fans in greater numbers, but you are all assured of access to these two games. And as I write this on Saturday morning, on a train out of Euston as the rain falls torrentially, one a day looking more like October than May a postponement of the Eastleigh game may even give us an unexpected third game that you can attend!
We will be putting the tickets for Yeovil and Torquay “on sale” for season ticket holders next week. This is a change to our normal procedure – normally you would just turn up on the day and gain admission. However, we want to control fan access, to be able to predict numbers attending and to have the ability to Track and Trace attendees. Therefore, ST holders will be required to obtain a matchday ticket for each game, although of course this will be free of charge.
At the moment we have only had confirmation for seating from Trafford BC, hence the restrictions on numbers remaining for now, so you will be expected to select a seat as part of your ticket acquisition. Once we have standing confirmed, we will have strict attendance limits on parts of the ground; the seating; the Mausoleum, Golf Road and associated half of the Pop Side; and the Chequers End and that associated part of the Pop Side. The Media Balcony will act as a divider and no access will be possible from one part of the ground to another.
These arrangements may seem draconian, but we are committed to making the return of fans as safe as possible for our supporters, and of course we want to be fully compliant with the regulations in place. This will be a more onerous matchday experience for our fans than before the pandemic, but frankly I would happily comply with more imposed restrictions if it allowed us to get you all watching Alty again.
We will launch the e-ticketing for these two games in the coming days, with further instructions on how to make it work. And we are also hopeful that we will announce a more general ticket sale – always to home fans only as soon afterwards as we can.
Thank you again for your continued support
Bill
