However, that plan was paused by the Government this week as part of a number of measures to try and curb a spike in Covid-19.

In a statement, PNE set out the alternatives:
1. Supporters can choose to retain their season ticket for the 2020/21 season and will be able to attend all remaining PNE home fixtures as soon as Government legislation permits fans back into stadiums (subject to restrictions).
Prior to being allowed back into stadiums these supporters will receive free access to iFollow PNE for all remaining 2020/21 home league games. In addition to this they will receive free access to the seven midweek away games scheduled and available to the club to offer via iFollow PNE (subject to these games being played behind closed doors).
2. All supporters who have purchased a season card for the 2020/21 season will be able to apply for a full refund, should they wish to receive their money back.

Supporters can choose not to claim a refund, but they can carry this payment over and take it as payment in full for a 2021/22 season card, effectively fixing the price of their 2021/22 season card regardless of which division the club are playing in or any price changes announced in advance of that season.
Supporters who choose to take this option, will also receive the benefit of free access to iFollow PNE for the live fixtures away at Queens Park Rangers and Reading as an added bonus.
All season card holders will be contacted by the club and they will be asked to make a decision on which option to take before close of business on October 12.
