For some supporters, they may have to use an exit they would not normally use but the club asks them to listen to and adhere to the stewards' advice as the exit system set up for the evacuation practice drill is the most time efficient.
The players of both teams will not come back onto the pitch following the final whistle but will be accessible via the autograph signing station outside the south-west corner of the ground.
Prior to the game, a new version of Vangelis's "Conquest of Paradise" will be played for the players to run out to. A cut-out-and-keep songsheet will be available in the match day programme but in case supporters do no wish to damage their programmes, here are the words:
CONQUEST OF PARADISE
Hmmmmmmmmmm. Hmmmmmmmmmm. Hmmmmmmmmmm. Hmmmmmmmmmm.
There shines a light in the heart of man That defies the dead of the night A beam that glows within every soul Like wings of hope taking flight
A sunny day, when a baby’s born The little things that we say A special sparkle in someone’s eye Simple gifts, every day
Somewhere there’s a paradise Where everyone finds release It’s here on earth and between your eyes A place we all find our peace
Come - open your heart Reach for the stars Believe your own power Now, here in this place Here on this earth This is the hour
It’s just a place we call paradise Each of us has his own It has no name, no, it has no price It’s just a place we call home
A dream that reaches beyond the stars The endless blue of the skies Forever wondering who we are? Forever questioning why?
Come - open your heart Reach for the stars Believe your own power Now, here in this place Here on this earth This is the hour
There shines a light in the heart of man That defies the dead of the night A beam that glows within every soul Like wings of hope taking flight Like wings of hope taking flight |
