Newcastle United season ticket holders have been asked by the club to fill in a Covid-19 self-declaration form in light of the government’s Plan B requirements when attending large events.

Fans with a season ticket were contacted by the club via email on Friday morning and have been asked to fill in a short (1 minute) self-declaration form to meet conditions for entry at home games.

The email included a link to the club’s self-declaration form which has four small sections, including questions regarding Covid-19 symptoms and vaccinations.

Additional checks will be carried out at St James’ Park on match-days. If proof isn’t shown, fans will be denied entry to the stadium, without a refund for their ticket.

Proof can be in the form of: a Covid passport showing you are double vaccinated, a negative test result within 48-hours prior to kick-off or evidence you are exempt.

Newcastle United told fans:

“The government has implemented Plan B of its Covid-19 response. This means that conditions of entry for access to matches has changed. Only those who are full vaccinated, exempt or have received a negative Covid-19 result in the last 48 hours prior to matches are allowed to attend.

“Once your self declaration form has been registered you will be eligible to access St James’ Park.”

Newcastle added:

“All stadiums will be carrying out extensive certification checks on match days. If proof is not shown supporters aged over 18 will be denied access in line with legal requirements and a refund will not be available.”
