Members only at Greenmount on Sunday

Hi Neal, my name is Rob Kilvington and I'm chairman at Greenmount.

I just wanted to welcome you and everyone from Bacup to the Log Cabin on Sunday.

I also wanted to let you know about a few of the procedures that we have had to introduce as a result of the covid regulations.

Firstly because our ground isn't the largest and therefore seating capacity isn't massive we are trying to implement a members only policy in an attempt to reduce numbers slightly. This does include members of visiting teams and does allow members to bring their own guests, but our transaction for hospitality purposes will be with the members of both clubs. To help us in this could I possibly ask that you remind any Bacup club members to bring their membership cards just as proof of membership and they will then benefit from members rates on the bar. Our bar staff will however need to ask for contact details for test and trace purposes.

We are actively encouraging people to bring their own chairs to increase capacity, your members are welcome to do the same. All I ask is that when bringing their own chairs people are mindful of the rule of 6 and social distancing regulations when setting them up.

I hope this is okay, I was just keen to try to ensure that as many of your members do bring their members cards as it will make things much easier at our end.
