Apologies if covered elsewhere but it also states….
Full Time & Exiting The bet365 Stadium:
Use face masks while exiting the stadium. Listen out for announcements or instructions from the match announcer or stewards before leaving your seats. A staggered exit may be required to keep supporters safe. You may be held back for up to 5-15 minutes.

On most occasions I drive up Surrey Stokie and it is 380 miles for me. 90% of the time I take rucksack in. Why? I buy a programme that I don’t want to be all creased or to be soaked. I buy the Duck magazine, same reason! I also bring some food as well.
I work 06:00 to 10:00 and then drive. Unlikely to be able to grab any food. I am not prepared to queue at half time.
I will be writing to the club on this if refused on 7th August

And, if all else failed, you could smuggle food in under your hat!

Lol Is that code for 'You and shagger stay on this row, me and Dave will hurdle the row in front so Steve and Pete can go three rows down' There will be more hurdling than the Grand National.

It also instructs anyone going down the steps are to move into a row to allow anyone coming up the steps priority. We’re a polite lot, I’m sure that will work 🤣🤣

Anyone banning bags from a stadium has clearly never taken a kid to a game. 'Dad I'm cold...' Here, put your jumper on *gets jumper out of bag* 'Dad, I'm hungry...' Here, eat these sweets *gets sweets from bag* 'Dad, the sweets have made me thirsty' sigh *gets drink from bag* 'Daaaaad, I'm boooorrrred' Here, play your Nintendo and shut the F up *Nintendo appears from bag* 'Daaaad, the batteries have run out.' *puts bag over own head* Spot on! Sounds exactly like every home game with my little lad that does trouserdog 😅

I'm around 100% sure these rules will be fucked off after the first match. Too difficult to police unless a large majority actively want to comply, which they won't.
And rightly so.

I have been in contact with the club and had an email from Anthony Emmerson who has told me the no bag rule is solely due to COVID and that there is to be no bag or body searches, hence why they have taken the decision to introduce the rule.
There are exemptions for small handbags and purses for ladies and also for medical situations whereby people may need to take medicines or such other to the stadium.
Just thought I'd relay the message.
I'd just also like to thank Anthony for getting back and replying so quickly to my query. That side of the club has improved tenfold since he has been in the role. What used to take days and weeks before now only take minutes and hours.

Agree found Anthony to be very good last season when I raised my concerns and suggestions around the cancellation of early bird STs ..an excellent representative of the club IMHO

I've never taken or needed to take a bag to the match but whilst I understand potential issues it's frankly a ridiculous decision for reasons which have already been mentioned on this thread. I think the club really need to clarify exactly what is allowed.

“In line with current COVID-19 guideline and best practice, cash will no longer be accepted.”
Where in the government guidelines and best practice does it say “you should stop accepting cash”?

What does this actually mean?
“Take care when shouting, singing or celebrating in order to reduce the risk of infection.”

Haven't followed UK guides but US CDC seemed pretty chill about touching and spread. Wear gloves, wash hands, don't touch face, and you'll be fine. Seems like bullshit reasons to me, like the bag thing. In the US the no bag rules are clearly to try and make you buy $14 Bud lights.
