Because of the volume of supporters expected and the layout of the ground, South Shields have decided to segregate without the need to make it all-ticket.
FC United supporters will be directed to turnstiles 3 and 4, which are at the far end of the ground as you drive to it. Within the segregated area for FC United supporters, food and drinks will be sold, including hot drinks, alcoholic drinks and soft drinks.

South Shields want to encourage as many people as possible to buy tickets in advance to help ease congestion at the turnstiles.
Supporters can get a £1 discount on the turnstile admission cost by purchasing tickets in advance.
