To all supporters:

There have been instances recently where fans under the age of 18 have been seen drinking alcohol which has led to our stewarding team having to confiscate drink which is clearly an unsatisfactory situation for everyone involved. We are concerned that adult supporters have on occasions purchased alcohol and then passed that on to persons under age. This is not acceptable and in line with the club’s zero tolerance of under age drinking has to be dealt with severely should any such instance come to our attention. Please could we ask all our supporters to strictly adhere to the licensing laws and on no account seek to purchase alcohol if under age and on no account if over 18 purchase alcohol to pass to someone under that age. Our Stewarding team have strict instructions from the board to monitor these concerns and to act appropriately should they observe any breaches of the law in this area. We will be introducing strict measures to ensure that these concerns do not arise going forward and we would ask all supporters to respect and observe those measures to assist the Club in our aims in this regard.
