General Ground Guidance - this is for AFCR&D Matches at Hayden Road over the coming weeks with reduced capacity (initially max 300 - All Pay/All Ticket).

Inside the ground there will be supplemental signage, and you will see the normal YELLOW (Hatching/No Standing Areas) - which are slightly extended and added in narrow/pinch points to ensure flow of people.

In addition the "RED ZONE", which covers an extended Tunnel Area from corner of stand to Bus Stop Cover. This area is out of bounds except to cross to left hand end of ground, though this area will be unavailable for extended periods around player entry and exit. The NHS "BLUE" markers on Terraces/Pitch Perimeter Barriers, denote the standard spacing as per relevant DCMS/FA/SGSA Guidance.


As stated previously, if in doubt ask one of the Stewards, and enjoy the game.

This will be our biggest pre season test. Probably would have been better to be played in a couple of weeks time, but it is what it is. Should have Bully back and will we see Ben Acquaye. Our squad is already 20 strong so not sure how many more we need. Certainly one more striker (the goalscorer Saturday is a strong contender but is being pursued by other clubs) and a back up goalkeeper.... who probably won't get many games!

I really enjoyed the game, it was a fine example of non league football. That must have been our youngest midfield in Slinn, Bell-toxtle and Akubine since we formed a "men's" team. We played better against the wind than with it IMO, and so did K.L., who turned it up 2nd half. A great effort from the lads all round if a little error strewn due to the stiff breeze.
It was hard to judge the triallists.
On the ground covid regulations the one way system will not work. If someone in the terrace needs the toilet it cant be good to send them almost fully around the ground past 200 others, when a short walk past 50 is quicker and easier? Maybe I misunderstood the intention? The other stuff is really well done, good job everyone.
