Chester FC have released a statement in which they detail some of their preparations for the forthcoming season.
Below are a few of the main points:
Stadium reopening
We are
currently in the process of reopening the Deva Stadium ticket office
and will provide an update as soon as possible. Our priority is the
safety of our fantastic team of volunteers who help ensure our club runs
on a day to day basis
Making the Stadium Covid-19 Compliant
One of
the key challenges facing the club at present is to ensure the stadium
is compliant with Covid-19 regulations and provides a safe environment
for supporters to watch football. Director Mark Jones and Safety Officer
Steve Povey are leading this work and this will involve some changes
for our fans when attending matches. These will be communicated with
supporters in good time.
Matchday Programmes
The impact of Covid-19 and resulting guidance means the club may not be able to sell printed copies of our matchday programme The Cestrian
during the 2020/21 season. We are committed to continuing to produce a
matchday programme but its likely this will be in the form of a digital
edition.
CFU Memberships and Membership Cards
We are
encouraging both existing members to renew and new members to sign up
online at present given the current circumstances. You can renew with
your existing login or sign up as a new member at www.cityfansunited.com. Becoming a member of City Fans United benefits your club and gives you access to a range of great benefits as a co-owner.
We are
currently looking into fulfillment of membership cards and will advise
further once we have a further update, which we anticipate will be later
this month.
