CLUB STATEMENT: South Stand and Slab

Ahead of the 25/26 season, the Club has made plans to rearrange the areas of the EBB Stadium housing away supporters that will allow us to claim the full East Bank as ours.

Please note that all changes are currently subject to approval from Health and Safety stakeholders and all developments will be communicated as soon as possible.

Changes proposed will see all current areas of the EBB Stadium designated to away supporters (The South side of the East Bank, the Away Terrace Uncovered and the East side of the South Stand Seating) now designated to home supporters.

The West side of the South Stand Seating will now become the seating area for away supporters with the Slab now becoming the Away Terrace. This will also apply to segregated games and further details will be communicated once plans are approved.

The Club already faces a high stewarding bill and with costs increasing further, we have had to look at all possible ways of reducing expenditure. The current setup of away fans entering via Redan Hill utilises significantly more stewarding than would be needed under the new proposal and therefore will save the Club money.

We understand that this will mean some of our loyal supporters will have to change where they support us and we apologise for this inconvenience.

Unfortunately, until the proposal has been given the green light by the Safety Advisory Group, we will only be able to offer season ticket renewals in the Slab and west side of the South Stand Seating and those in question will have their season tickets reserved until a decision is finalised.

Anyone looking to renew their season ticket in the Slab or the west side of the South Stand Seating, may be subject to having their ticket relocated upon the approval of these plans.

Until a decision has been finalised, no new season tickets will be available to purchase in these areas.

We ask that these supporters are patient as we will communicate any developments as soon as possible. Our Earlybird period will be further extended this summer and we remain hopeful that a conclusion will be reached before prices rise, providing all supporters the opportunity to purchase at the lowest possible price.
