Chester City Statement About Possible Covid Breaches

Chester City have released the following statement:

'This morning Chester Football Club was invited to a meeting with representatives of North Wales Police, Flintshire County Council, Cheshire Police and Cheshire West & Chester Council.

During this meeting, the Club was given a joint letter on behalf of North Wales Police and Flintshire County Council which outlines potential breaches of Welsh Coronavirus Regulations at our fixtures on 28th December 2021 and 2nd January 2022.

It also states the Club may commit further potential breaches if it continues to play home fixtures with crowds while the current restrictions in Wales remain in place.

We were informed this was based upon direction from the Welsh Government that the premises of Chester Football Club are governed by the Welsh Regulations. The Welsh Government was not represented at the meeting.

It was agreed that all parties would seek further legal advice given the complex issues and future implications of any outcome.

We will provide a further update to our supporters as soon as we are able to.'

Chester City are away at Bradford PA tomorrow. Their next home game is on Saturday January 15th.
