Arrive Earlier Due To Extra Screening For City V Gillingham

Last updated : 19 November 2015 By CNS Staff

In light of the Paris Attacks last Friday, there will be increased security for Coventry City's game against Gillingham at the Ricoh Arena on Saturday.

There will be extra screeening and supporters are advised not to bring rucksacks or bags in order to speed up the screening process.

Safety Officer Chris O'Neill said: "After the recent events, the club's safety team and ACL stand firm in our ambitions to make sure that the Ricoh Arena is a safe place to visit.
 
"We're currently taking all the necessary precautions to ensure the safety of supporters and will require the patience of supporters during additional screening on Saturday.
 
"With every game, we'd like fans to remain vigilant and review all safety precautions, and urge supporters to speak to any steward if they spot a problem before and during the game."
