spartans

Spartans have issued advice for supporters heading to Berwick tonight for the William Hill Scottish Cup replay which will determine who will meet Hibs at Easter Road.

The convoy of 11 coaches containing the Spartan Army will drop everyone off at the ground and then go to the bottom of the drive and park up behind the Black and Gold.

For the many travelling by car, parking will be on the grassy area around the outside of the ground, however this may be filled up quickly. In that case the visitors may need to park in the side streets.

Spartans and Berwick fans will arrive at the turnstiles, those wishing to stand should go to the right hand (from outside) set, those wanting to sit to go to the main turnstiles.

Disabled fans and carers to enter by the gate next to the main turnstiles. There should be no problems if fans enter by the wrong set as they can move around on the concourse. Disabled viewing area is near the pie van and main stand.

Spartans fans would be expected to occupy the north (far end) part of the stand and terracing. Toilet facilities and catering will be available on both sides.

The Club Shop is just inside the main turnstiles. Programmes and 50/50 tickets are on sale inside the ground.

Match prices are £12 Adults, £6 Concessions and £2 for Under 16s.

At the end of the game, the Spartans fans in the stand can exit by the exit gate at the rear which will take them to the buses, those in the Ducket can leave by Exit 6 and walk round the outside of the ground to the buses.

Stewards will see the Spartans buses away and may need to man the junction if there is a lot of traffic.
