Home matches will be played at Chichester City’s Oaklands Park ground for a period at the start of the season due to the 3G pitch installation at Nyewood Lane.

Ticket prices on the day will remain as last season — £12 all adults and £6 for under 18s. However, for matches at Chichester the club is reducing to £10 and £5 as a thank-you to travelling supporters.

Season tickets: Terracing: £200 for adults, £165 for over-65s and £99 for under-18s.

A spokesman explains: “As last season we are offering a senior season ticket which gives a 35 per cent discount to the normal admission price. Anyone not able to purchase online can pay by card, cheque or cash.

“With an ‘early bird’ offer, you can buy your terracing season ticket online between Tuesday, June 16th and midnight on Monday 22nd for just £180 adults, £150 for over-65s and £80 for under-18s.

“As for stand season tickets, we cannot sell these at present as there is no means of controlling them at Chichester. As soon as we know the date we will be starting back at Nyewood Lane we will put stand season tickets on sale on a pro-rata basis once we know the number of matches.”

The club will be arranging a return supporters’ coach from Nyewood Lane to Chichester for the first Saturday match at £5 return. There will be more info available once we have the fixtures, which are expected to be announced on July 11th.
