As the Clapton CFC season gets back underway, the Old Spotted Dog Ground Trust are working hard to make improvements to ensure quicker and more efficient service – including increased staff/volunteers, additional bars, and improved equipment. They will do their best to reduce the queues so you can get back to the football.

However, the OSDGT dneed to reinforce that the licence and ground regulations only allows for alcohol to be consumed within the ground if purchased from the Old Spotted Dog bar/s.

If you have alcohol from elsewhere when you arrive, please hand it over at the gate ready for collection upon your exit. You will be given a ticket that you can show to collect it when you exit at the gate (or at the bar, if you are leaving after 6pm).

It is a key part of our values that we do not police one another, and would not want to enforce bag searches upon entry, but the OSDGT do need to keep to the terms of the licence so thank you in advance for your co-operation.

Finally, a reminder that all glass bottles are prohibited on site.
