Reporting form
We offer an anonymous online form for supporters to report any concerns around safety or inappropriate behaviour and chanting in or around the stadium. Use the QR code which is situated around the stadium or click here.
Stadium facilities
Our unisex accessible toilets can be found in each corner of the LNER Stadium, as well as each bar and hospitality suite. Supporters can find them on the stadium map and signposted with toilet icons in and around the LNER Stadium. These toilets also include baby changing facilities.
Bins and recycling
We would like to make supporters aware of new legislation which requires the football club to separate waste. In order to apply, clearly designated bins will be located throughout the stadium. Please help us keep the LNER Stadium clean and tidy by putting your rubbish in the correct bin.
Like every business throughout the country, the Imps are now required by law to comply with new waste regulations, failure to do so will result in the club receiving a fine. Thank you to all supporters in advance for their understanding and cooperation with this matter.
Have you spotted the Ellgia-branded bins around the stadium? Nothing you put in them will end up in landfill!
Love football, protect the game
Every fan should feel safe and enjoy an inclusive experience when they attend matches at the LNER Stadium and dangerous or anti-social behaviour have no place in our game.
City joined other EFL clubs in the Love Football, Protect the Game campaign to educate supporters on the impact of anti-social behaviour and pitch incursions which can result in banning orders for the individuals concerned and significant fines being imposed on the club by the football authorities.
Regulation changes and tough new measures have been introduced this season which will see people who are found to have committed offences face stadium bans and potential criminal prosecution.
In addition to bans and criminal sanctions, a range of in-stadium, in-classroom and online resources will be rolled out under the ‘Love Football Protect the Game’ banner, to educate adults and children alike about the hurt tragedy chanting causes. Ground regulations have also been updated to incorporate references to tragedy chanting.
The game will also continue its efforts to combat dangerous, illegal and unwelcome behaviour off the pitch, be it in the stands or online. Last season a host of new measures were introduced by authorities which saw enhanced sanctions applied for people identified entering the pitch, using pyros, taking drugs to games, throwing objects or for discriminatory abuse.
