FC UNITED V STAFFORD RANGERS

Oct 13, 2020 | Club News

After consultation between both clubs we have agreed not to take our allocation of 90 tickets for this game.

We have discussed at length the implications of this decision for all involved. The impact of the covid-19 pandemic has given all clubs huge difficulties in meeting the ever-changing requirements needed to put a game on and so far, Stafford Rangers FC have achieved this.

Our overwhelming objective has been to keep fans, staff, and volunteers safe and ensure that we reduce as much as possible the likelihood of transmission in the community because that’s the right thing to do. We have now needed to consider the responsibility we have by not encouraging fans to travel to areas that have a higher infection rate than that which exists in our hometown.

In respect of FC United we believe that we have a moral responsibility to not encourage fans to travel and we will not be taking up the allocation of 90 tickets on this occasion. It is a difficult decision, and we ask for your understanding.

No tickets will be available on the day from FC UM as the entire allocation will be taken up by their season ticket holders.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

Tickets for this game have been on sale since Sunday and at the time of this post 97 have been sold. This game will be all ticket. Our on line ticket office will close at 4pm Thursday 8th October.

If we do have any tickets left for sale we will tell you on Friday morning 9th October but if you want to secure a ticket we advise you to buy on line. We guarantee entrance for Season Ticket holders.

We are really trying our best to accommodate everyone but we will continue to be scrutinised closely to ensure we act within strict Covid-19 guidelines for the safety of everyone at the football club. Trying to balance everyone’s needs is nearly impossible in the current situation so we ask you to buy on line so we can manage numbers effectively and with as much clarity as possible.

We also ask people who had requested an NHS ticket to collect these by 4pm Thursday 8th October. After this time these tickets will be void. This is not a perfect situation, but we currently have over 60 tickets which are outstanding collection. This gives us great uncertainty in terms of numbers turning up on the day and feel that we have to bring this matter to a close.

Buxton v Stafford Rangers

Saturday 3rd October
EMIRATES FA CUP KO 3:00pm

Stafford fans will access the ground through gate 4 where your very own Director of Football Andy Fearn, will be scanning your tickets.

Please note that the latest FA Cup protocol now requires Buxton to screen all match attendees. They will have additional stewards available to run through a Covid-19 symptom questionnaire and self-declaration to confirm that attendees have not been in contact with anyone who has tested positive for, or displayed symptoms of Covid-19.

As we were offered 200 tickets originally we have now returned 130 tickets back to Buxton who will place them on general sale. Stafford fans can pay on the gate but obviously there is a chance you might not get in. Buxton have a 600 capacity for this game and an average gate of 400.

Ticket Prices ADULT £10.00, Concessions £6.00 – no other concessions apply.

In the ever changing world of Covid-19 instructions the ability to purchase tickets on line through our partner Kaizen will provide great benefit and clarity to club and fans alike. Feedback from fans has so far been excellent and it appears the system delivers both simplicity and functionality. Thank you for your support and enjoy the match.

Tickets for the game against Hyde on the 10th October will go on sale from midday on Sunday 4th October.
