Supporter Behaviour...
Cambridge United would like to issue an important reminder to all supporters ahead of this Saturday’s final game of the season.
In the interest of safety for everyone inside the stadium, please remember that the pitch is strictly for players, managers, and match officials. The stands are where your support belongs—and we encourage you to make your voices heard from there.
Unfortunately, recent seasons have seen a small minority of fans across the country enter the field of play, whether in celebration or otherwise.
These pitch incursions are not only dangerous but also illegal. Any individual who enters the playing surface will face significant consequences, including, stadium bans (at the Cledara Abbey Stadium and potentially nationwide), police action and criminal charges, which may result in a record that can affect employment, education, and international travel.
These actions do not only impact individuals - they can also have consequences for family members and for Cambridge United Football Club as a whole. Our message is simple: Keep the pitch for the players, and stay in the stands to show your support.
A reminder that segregation will be in place for Saturday’s fixture in line with EFL Regulations.
Birmingham City supporters will be in the South Habbin, with the away allocation now sold out.
Away fans without valid tickets are strongly advised not to travel. Please note that home stand tickets are only available to existing account holders with a purchase history from the last two seasons. Matchday ticket sales will require valid ID.
Any away supporters found in home sections will be ejected and may face further sanctions.
Let’s come together to support the team in a safe, respectful, and positive atmosphere as we close out the season.
Report It...
Safety at the Cledara Abbey Stadium remains a key priority on a Matchday and should you witness anti-social or discriminatory behaviour, please speak to a steward, report it via the Club's anonymous reporting textline - 075224 73291 - or through our online Report an Incident page.
Enjoy the game!
