Phase three will see an additional 1901 Club area added to the north stand, which will help boost capacity at the Amex to 32,500 and is due to open in time for the 2026/27 season. The new area will offer a more pub-like vibe for home fans only. Alongside the Dugout, those will be the only areas that will allow fans to wear replica shirts; and the new members area will be specifically aimed at those fans who want to be at the heart of the atmosphere and show their support for the team.

As part of this work, the north stand control box will relocate to the north-east corner of the stadium, and the big screen at the north end will be repositioned.

Other works planned will include the introduction of safe standing in the North Stand, taking place in 2025, which the club recently confirmed; and in 2027 the relocation of away supporters into the south-west corner of the Amex. This will be in the space currently occupied by the Heineken Lounge and associated seating – with the new away area including safe standing for visiting supporters.

We are notifying fans now, well in advance of the changes, and have been in touch with all affected ticket holders to advise that supporter services will liaise with them to relocate their seats during the renewal phase for the 2027/28 season; or in the case of 1901 Club members, ahead of the 2026/27 season, in line with their five-yearly renewal window. Fans in both areas should note, there is no need to take any action now.

Moving the away fans will create a new home fans area directly behind the goal at the south stand end of the stadium, and this is expected to include an additional safe standing area, subject to fan demand.
