I have been advised by the Stadium that due to the large number taking the tour , they need to bring the commencement time forward to 2.00pm
Therefore to enable members to walk and view “the Plaza” and , if necessary find their “tile” if they have purchased one , all members are requested to attend at 12.45pm
Car parking is available and to gain entry via the “security staff” a member requires to say “We are on a stadium tour as part of Maghull and Lydiate U3A group” , the staff will have been notified of this
