As you were for cup-tie

ATHLETIC have retained the small section of the Rochdale Road Stand at Boundary Park for the FA Cup, fifth-round clash with Everton on February 16.

The club has confirmed the same arrangements will apply as for the fourth-round Liverpool game, rather than giving Everton fans the entire stand as had been suggested.

Club director Barry Owen said: “We have secured arrangements we feel are best for the club. It is important to remind our fans that throwing objects and general public disorder will not be tolerated.”

SUPPORTERS at tonight’s game with Yeovil will receive a voucher on entry, giving them eligibility for tickets for the Everton game. The voucher offers priority booking but doesn’t guarantee a ticket.
