The Club reserves absolutely the right to eject from the Ground any person failing to comply with any of the Ground Regulations or whose presence within the Ground is, or could, reasonably be construed as constituting a source of danger, nuisance or annoyance to any other person.This could lead to further action by the Club including, but not limited to, the withdrawal of any season ticket (without reimbursement) and other benefits.
Entry to the Ground shall constitute acceptance of the Ground Regulations.
Hope the police are around at the next game as they can start to either eject/arrest some of these people who persist to stand & about time the club starts taking action against these people who fail to comply with the ground regulations as by coming in your all comply to these rules!!
So the club reserves the right to prevent fun.
They tried this three seasons ago and had a PR disaster on their hands that made them laughing stocks. The Chief Executive who masterminded this clampdown on the few people who were "spoiling it for everybody else" was relieved of his main duties shortly thereafter.
The club then couldn't wait to cosy up with the main protagonists over a cuppa and a garibaldi.
They won't make that mistake again.
