Due to the deeply sad news regarding Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II’s passing, at kick-off we will be holding a one-minute’s silence, as well as singing the national anthem, God Save The King. Therefore, we advise getting to your seats slightly earlier than you would normally do so to avoid disruption.
