Ahead of Saturday’s final Sky Bet Championship match of the season against Leeds United, we wanted to remind the Green Army of some important safety protocols.
While we are aware it is often tradition for fans to enter the field of play at the end of the season, this is a criminal offence, and anyone identified in doing so will be passed to the police for potential prosecution.
This will also impact any potential post-match activity with the Argyle squad keen to show their appreciation and thanks to the Green Army for their unwavering support, with a lap of the pitch following the final whistle.
With much riding on the game for our visitors, we are expecting Leeds United supporters to travel to the South West in numbers and the surrounding area of the stadium to be very busy in the build-up to the match.
As a result, we will be enforcing an outer ring to aid security measures, meaning ingress into Home Park will be slower than normal. We will therefore open the stadium two hours ahead of kick-off for this game.
Supporters will need tickets ready for scanning to enter the outer ring. Please have them ready to enter the stadium to ensure a smooth access for your fellow fans.
We would like to remind fans that it is a break of our ticketing terms and conditions to sell your ticket outside of the club’s approved methods, and anyone who does this will have their ticketing account suspended. Both home and away ticket holders may be required to show ID upon entry to ensure tickets are not sold on.
If Leeds are crowned champions, a small stage will be erected in front of the away end with the Leeds players able to celebrate with their travelling fans as per league traditions, and similar to when we won the league away at Port Vale. This will take place once the Argyle players have departed the field of play.
Finally, we want to thank the Green Army for their incredible support throughout the season and look forward to seeing you all back at Home Park soon.
