Sunday info

Post by Leisure » Sat Sep 13, 2025 10:08 am

The home team bus will now arrive at the north east corner of the stadium opposite the Rapidz Fan Zone. Supporters are encouraged to be in place from 12pm to welcome manager Scott Parker and the team off the bus.

Sunday's fixture is dedicated to Burnley FC in the Community, the Club's official charity. To support their programmes and donate £1, text UTC to 70560.

Access to Turf Moor

On matchdays Harry Potts Way and Yorkshire Street can be congested, therefore we encourage all supporters to arrive early. Harry Potts Way will close to traffic at 12pm.

Belvedere Road is open to supporters. At 12pm the road will close for road users just beyond the Cricket Club entrance to the Wellington lights junction.

The Club encourage fans to be considerate if parking on residential roads around Turf Moor.

Further stadium information

Entry to turnstiles will open at 12:30pm for both home and visiting supporters. Please bring photo ID with you as this may be checked as part of our standard ticketing policy.

Please note, the Ticket Office will open at 10am on Sunday.

For your safety, we have increased search measures around the club on matchdays therefore it may take longer to enter the stadium. Supporters are encouraged to arrive in good time ahead of kick-off for extra bag checks at the turnstiles.

There will also be extra bag checking measures in place for all hospitality areas and the Rapidz Fan Zone, so please allow for additional time to gain entry.

All extra measures are in place for supporter safety and we thank you for your cooperation.

Has someone been sneaking their own vodka in Hospitality?

I can't think of any other reason for our posh supporters to have their bag searched.

I think they might have a bit of wake up call at 12pm when there's about 50 folk stood there :lol:

No problem with the team bus now tipping up on the north east corner but why couldn’t they have just left everything else as it was - Cricket field stand and Ormerod yard. I can’t actually work out what we’ve gained out of all this, even with the tunnel etc. Even when driving in to park it’s caused real problems.

No idea why these changes have been brought in.
Road closures, moving people out of the car park at short notice, closing routes to the ground all for what ?
For a few fans to see the players get off the coaches ? How many of our fans are going to turn up to the ground 2 hours early just to see the players for a few seconds ?

In my view if they put as much effort into improving the fan experience around ticketing and things like match day catering, improving concourse facilities this is a lot more relevant to the majority of fans than this kind of nonsense.

I read the match info email but can’t remember if they have mentioned carrying photo id with you before? Is this a new “request”.

To clarify, although Belvedere Road will be closed tomorrow, it will be open for @Burnley_CC for 🍻& parking from the fire station 👍🏻

Ormerod Yard is for away supporters still!

Tomorrow will be the first big test of the wisdom of our esteemed leaders, because when we leave the Turf it will be lashing it down.

In the past I’d have dashed out straight away, up Ormerod Yard, back to the car for a 2 hour drive home only partially wet.

Tomorrow I’m expected to be like a drowned rat queueing to get past the club shop, and no ability in the car to dry off. Like Beddie said, I can’t see who has gained out of this, apart from the away fans.

Nobody did gain apart from the away fans. It's ok for the majority of fans to say 'it's no worse for me', but it is worse for a fair proportion of us.

I really don't get it.

Away from the ground, if you're travelling in from out of town, down the M65 from the west, avoid J9 like the plague. The roadworks on Accy Road/Rosegrove Lane/Rossendale Road are absolutely shocking. Today the temporary traffic lights were permanently on red for at least 2, if not all, of the roads joining the junction.

AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE.

Worked out pretty well for me and those around me in the CFS. No pillar blocking the goal, much better concourse pre match and halftime and I don’t have to walk round half the ground in a massive crush to get to the pub.

It’s been on this sort of article for a long while (well over a season). I’ve never been asked.

Is that a club tweet or something?

Belvedere Road IS open for home fans to get to BCC on foot from Harry Potts Way traffic lights.

It’s also open by car from Leyland Road/Holcombe Drive
