Railway Paddock Update
Following the damage sustained to the toilet block overnight on the 15th September 2023 the club had to make the decision to close the block and restrict ticket sales in the Railway Paddock.
The club are now looking at a range of funding streams that are available for the type of work required from the EFL and other external partners.
At the time our initial thoughts would be that the closure would last no longer than two games whilst remedial work took place. Unfortunately, on further inspection it has now been concluded that the best course of action would be to demolish the block entirely and rebuild it.
With that decision in mind, the restriction to ticketing in the Railway Paddock will remain for the foreseeable future and no extra tickets will be available for any game, season tickets will be unaffected.
