Chief Executive David Baldwin said: “Home fan accessibility in the David Fishwick Stand has always been a topic brought up in our regular consultations with supporters groups.

“We have listened to these opinions and agreed to open this area on a trial basis, to judge demand and any issues this may have caused the club in regards to ground safety and stewarding.

“We are delighted with both the attendances and behaviour of fans in this area during the trial period, and feel it would be a fantastic opportunity to now open this area up for home fans for our next four home games at Turf Moor”.

Football League rules state that all fans (home or visiting) must be charged equally if not using one of the four allowed ‘local’ promotion games.
