We are expecting a very large crowd to attend our game against Leyton Orient on Saturday 13 April (k.o. 3pm), so have made special arrangements for the game as follows.

We know that the number of Leyton Orient fans wanting to visit the KCS for this game will be many more than our usual allocation to away clubs for segregated matches. We have therefore taken the decision on safety grounds to extend the areas of the stadium that will be available and restricted to away supporters. This means that the segregation gate will be at the Gander Green Lane end of the covered terracing on the Collingwood Recreation Ground side, which will therefore be available only to Leyton Orient supporters. For some U’s fans that will mean not being able to stand in their favoured spot for this match only, but we hope everyone will understand the reasons behind the decision.

In order to facilitate easy access to the stadium, we will be selling match day tickets in advance of the game. This is to reduce congestion on the day and, of course, to guarantee admission. Leyton Orient have been given their own supply of tickets to sell for their area of the ground.

For Sutton supporters, season tickets and reserved seats are valid for the game in the normal way. U’s fans who are not season ticket holders can buy tickets as described below. ”Ticket only” turnstiles at the Gander Green Lane end of the ground will admit season ticket holders as well as those U’s supporters who have pre-bought their match day tickets. There will also be “cash only” turnstiles to admit U’s fans , but we would recommend that as many Sutton supporters buy their tickets in advance of the game to ensure all fans are accommodated as smoothly as possible on the day. Please also arrive as early as possible on the day to ease congestion.

Tickets for the home end of the ground can be bought at tomorrow’s game against Havant & Waterlooville at the following times: 1pm-2.45pm – Players’ Bar; 2pm to 3pm – Gander Green Lane entrance, just inside the ground; 5pm-5.45pm – Club office on the ground floor.

Tickets for the home end can also be bought from the club office at the following times : Mondays 10 am to 12 noon; Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays 10am to 3pm . Also Wednesday evenings 7.30pm to 8.30pm. You can also ring 020 8644 4440 at those times


Tickets for the home end are also available on line www.suttonunited.net/product/sutton-united-v-leyton-orient-national-league-april-2019/


NB Unreserved seat tickets for the grandstand will not be sold in advance of the game but will be available to buy, on a first come first served basis for the usual £2 stand transfer charge, payable in the usual way. Please note; these seats are limited in number.

Does that mean there will be no space for Sutton supporters along the covered terracing on the Collingwood recreation ground side because if it is raining it might be a problem accommodating all our fans under the Gander green lane covered terrace ?

Makes sense from a ££££ point of view. If they are gonna bring loads of fans and it's segregated, I suppose giving them half the ground and letting in as many away fans as poss will gain the maximum attendance figure, and maximum gate money. Don't particularly like being moved out of our place tho. Ho hum.

The problem is they will come in large numbers and it would be impossible to enforce segregation on entry - they sound like us! Therefore you give them enough space so they don’t feel the need to use the home sreas. And pray for good weather.

Yes we will want to maximise revenue for a game like this it goes without saying. I'm guessing we will have a fair few supporters of our own on the day as well.
