The Reds will be looking to make it ten consecutive matches unbeaten in all competitions in West Sussex this weekend, but will have to avoid defeat to a struggling Solihull Moors side to achieve that feat.
Throughout the last few weeks, your support has made a huge difference to performances on the pitch, with another large attendance expected at Woodside tomorrow afternoon – kick-off scheduled for 3pm.
A reminder that several different rules are being implemented and enforced at the Sussex Transport Community Stadium in order to comply with the National League regulations.
Supporters are still prohibited from consuming alcohol within sight of the pitch, which applies at all times and in all areas/stands from the moment of entrance into the stadium. Fans who wish to purchase alcohol inside the stadium can still do so from various outlets at Woodside, but consumption must take place behind the stands, inside our bars or behind pitch covers.
Smoking and vaping is also strictly forbidden in all areas inside the premises. Supporters who leave the stadium after entering and attempt to re-enter the stadium again won’t be allowed back in.
Timings
Supporters are advised to arrive well in advance of kick-off, in order to prevent being caught in queues and missing some of the action as a result. Fans are recommended to turn up at least 30 minutes before the game is set to start to avoid disappointment.
Please note, turnstiles will open at 12:15pm on Saturday afternoon, not the typical opening time of 1pm. This is to offer supporters the option of watching the Premier League lunchtime kick-off of Arsenal vs Leeds United (KO 12:30pm) in the comfort of our Stand Bar.

13:00 – 17:00- Club Shop Opening Times
14:15 – Team news & Warm-Ups

Tickets
Tickets are still available for the visit of Solihull Moors and are able to be purchased online through the FanBase app/website and on the turnstiles.
However, supporters are encouraged to purchase their tickets online in advance to minimise the disruption when entering the ground. The Club can never guarantee the availability of tickets at the turnstiles in the event of a sell-out. Buy your tickets here: Worthing FC vs Solihull Moors Tickets
Soft Segregation will be in place for this match, which means all outlets, including Linda’s Kiosk in the North East Corner will be available for both sets of supporters.
Both Worthing FC and Solihull Moors supporters can purchase their tickets online via Fanbase.
Please note as part of a newly-introduced league rule, children under the age of 14 must be accompanied by an adult, otherwise they will be refused entry. Refunds are awarded at the Club’s discretion.

Bowls Club Exit
Saturday’s match will be have soft segregation in place, with Solihull Moors supporters congregating in the North East Corner of the stadium.
Our continual agreement with our neighbours at the Bowls Club will be in place, with side exit next to the Arrow Taxi South Stand being opened, which will allow fans to leave quicker via that alleyway and reduce congestion.
The exit will be clearly marked out by our helpful stewards, who will assist fans in departing the ground.
Please not, this is an exit that becomes available after the full-time whistle ONLY and not an entrance point for any supporter.
Food and Drink
FanZone & DJ
Our FanZone, sponsored by ST Containers, will be open and is the perfect place to feel the buzz before kick-off, as the atmosphere builds ahead of another clash on home soil. The early Premier League kick-off of Arsenal vs Leeds United will be screened in the FanZone from 1pm onwards on the televisions.
Refreshments are available to purchase under the canopy, with only alcoholic beverages and soft drinks served at this outlet.
From this season onwards, there are now four points of service, which will increase the speed and efficiency of the bar.
Please note, no snacks are on offer from the Container Bar with the newly-introduced Tuck Shop now the optimal place to satisfy your sugary cravings (see below).
Tuck Shop
Positioned in front of our Stand Bar, the tuck shop sells teas, coffees, cold drinks, slushies (red only of course), sweets, chocolate and other snacks.
Stand Bar
As usual, our Stand Bar is expected to be very busy this weekend, with the area renowned for being one of the more popular locations for supporters to congregate ahead of kick-off.
The Bar will serve alcoholic, soft drinks and hot drinks, but there are no snacks available in here. Again, supporters are directed towards our new tuck shop to fulfil your sugary-based needs!
There are three points of service at the bar and capacity is limited. Please use the inside of the building to queue, rather than outside the door, as the rules for alcohol consumption in sight of the pitch remain in action. Please don’t open the windows, as they are frosted to ensure that we comply with these rules.
St Elmo’s Shack
A reminder that our Kiosk situated in in the North West Corner of the stadium, affectionately referred to as our St Elmo’s Shack, is now serving beef-based products alongside the delicious chicken from last year.
Several items are just waiting to be devoured – including burgers, tenders and even a foot-long hotdog!

Products purchased from these Pop-Ups Bars can only be consumed behind the stand, with the consumption of alcohol in the stand or in line of sight of the pitch prohibited in all areas around the ground.
