Runcorn Linnets are to carry over all season tickets for the curtailed 2020-21 season to 2021-22.

Anyone who purchased a season ticket for 20-21 will automatically be able to gain admission to all home league games in 21-22 by presenting the same pass at the turnstile.

Chairman Dave Jones said: "The effects of Covid-19 have now brought a premature end to two seasons in succession and this time, the campaign ended very early.

"With the way the fxtures fell and our cup commitments, we played just three home games in The Pitching In Northern Premier League North West Division before a halt was called just after Christmas.

"All our fans have realised that the pandemic has put a strain on clubs like ourselves, who rely heavily on matchday income. They have been extremely generous and supportive throughout.

"Many of our season ticket holders buy season tickets every year and they had already lost out in 2019-20 season, albeit to a lesser degree as the campaign was much further advanced when the abandonment came.

"While true to form, we have not had requests for refunds from any of our 2020-21 season ticket holders, it is only right that we recognise their understanding by ensuring that they are compensated for their investment.

"We are, therefore, writing off the 2020-21 season and starting with a clean slate by offering these loyal season ticket holders what we hope will be a full campaign of football when we begin again, all being well, in August."

Any 2020-21 season ticket holders, whose circumstances might have changed and are therefore unable to take advantage of the rollover will, of course, be refunded on request.
