Brechin City is pleased to announce that home spectators will be able to return to the Glebe for our second leg Pyramid Play Off match v Kelty Hearts on Sunday 23rd May. There will be no charge for entry to this game.

Unfortunately, due to strict covid regulations, the club has had to restrict the number of supporters to a maximum capacity of 250, with season ticket holders receiving priority. Please note that there is no capacity for away supporters or Brechin City FC non season tickets holders. Kelty Hearts fans should not travel to the game.

Brechin City Season ticket holders are requested to book their place by emailing the club at playoff@brechincityfc.com or phoning or texting 07720861369. In order for the club to safely put in place arrangements for the game, we would ask for all bookings to be done by 5.00pm on Friday 21st at the latest.

Where possible school children who have a valid season ticket, and provided that the capacity is not exceeded, will be permitted to attend but must be accompanied by an adult season ticket holder.

The club hopes supporters will realise that, due to covid restrictions, the match day experience will be completely different from normal, and we would ask supporters to comply fully with the guidance that the club has had to follow as a result.

Can we ask everyone to be patient with what are challenging conditions for hosting a football match. We would also ask tolerance with stewards and staff who are there to make this a safe environment for all under current guidelines.

• Supporters must complete a covid declaration form. These can be downloaded from the club's website - COVID DECLARATION FORM. They can also be collected from the Glebe on Saturday 22nd May between 10:00am and 12 noon. There will also be the opportunity to complete a form at the Glebe on the day of the match from 2pm. These forms should then be handed to the gate checkers on entry to the ground.

• There will be four turnstiles in operation on the day, two at the Trinity End of the ground for those supporters who wish to sit in the David Will Stand or take a place on the Hedge Side Terracing and two at the Cemetery End for those who wish to stand in the covered enclosure at the bottom end of the ground.

• Seats in the David H Will stand will be allocated on a first come, first served basis.

• Only seats marked with a green tick can be used.

• For avoidance of doubt, the Centre Stand will not be available to supporters as this is now ‘red zone’ and set aside to accommodate substitutes from both teams.

• Spectators choosing to stand should be aware of the socially distanced markings on the terracing.

• To allow safe entry to the ground, and avoid log jams, the turnstiles will be open from 2:00pm, with last entry at 2:45pm.

• Stewards will be available on the day to assist identifying unoccupied spaces.

• Temperature checks will take place before entry to the ground.

• Season tickets should be shown to the gate checkers who will have an updated season ticket list for cross referencing.

• Masks must be worn at all times inside the ground.

• There will be no car parking facilities at the ground.

• There will be no refreshment facilities available.

• No Hospitality – including the City Club and Platinum Lounge.

• Portaloos will be situated at both ends of the ground.

• Spectators should be aware that movement inside the ground will be restricted so suitable clothing, to take into account weather conditions, should be worn.
