Home Supporters Ticket Info
Tickets for supporters of the Generals will be sold via our ticketing site in a phased approach with priority & restrictions to ensure that as many Chesham fans as possible are able to purchase tickets.
We are currently SOLD OUT with 3300 home supporters cheering on the Generals on Monday night. There may be more tickets available as we receive returns from competition required allocations early next week
Away Supporters Ticket Info
Tickets are on sale to Lincoln supporters following their priority windows from Sunday 10am https://www.weareimps.com/news/tickets-chesham-united – Lincoln supporters should only purchase tickets from their own club website, with any Lincoln fans purchasing from the home allocations will have their tickets cancelled and refused entry to the Meadow on matchday.
Matchday Details
Supporters should be aware that this will not be a normal matchday at the Meadow and we will have different arrangements in place for the fixture, these will be communicated via this Matchday Info page and our social feeds.
Thank you to those of you that have purchased your tickets already, and a welcome to those who haven’t been to the Meadow before or those Imps supporters travelling down from Lincolnshire.
Here’s what you need to know:
– The ground & turnstiles will be open from 5pm, there will be NO cash/card admission on the night so make sure to purchase online.
– The Chess Suite will be OUTSIDE the ground for this match, with no access from the Chess Suite to the ground pre-match.
– The match will kick off at 7.15pm with extra time & penalties if required.
We do have some boring, pre-event housekeeping that we need to tell you about as well;
– Please either print or download your match tickets in advance, you will need to show your QR code at the entrance gate
– If you cannot find your ticket email – subject will be “Your Ticket Delivery”, you can download your tickets by going to the ticket portal choosing your order and then pressing the “Download My Tickets” button.
THE CHESS SUITE
The Chess Suite will open at 5pm and be OUTSIDE the ground before the game on Monday night. Last orders will be called @ 6.30pm and the bar itself will close at 6.45pm to allow enough time for everyone to make it through the turnstiles before kick off.
Once the bar is empty, the doors to the Meadow pitchside will be unlocked for access to the bar area & toilets – however the bar itself will be shut to purchases until after the full time whistle – this is due to FA regulations on serving alcohol in view of the pitch.
SEATING
Seating in the J.Bennett & Sons Main Stand will be available on a first come, first served basis – there are approximately 130 seats on the far end of the stand with the near end being temporarily re-purposed as a press area for the night.
PROGRAMMES
We are producing a special bumper 60-page FA Cup edition of the programme with content from supporters of both sides, ChatGPT among other contributors, as well as the usual array of facts, stats & articles from the regular programme contributors.
Just £5 for this special commemorative 60 pager. These will be available just inside the turnstiles in the run up to kick off, purchasable by both cash & card.
