The gate at the bottom of the John Charles West Stand Car Park (gate 1) will be closed after the final whistle until all travelling away coaches have been refilled and departed. The John Charles Car Park will remain closed until all coaches have left the coach parks. This could be up to 30 minutes after the final whistle.

For safety and security reasons, the bottom of the John Charles West Stand car park will be sterile and there will be no opportunity for fans to gather in this area.
