"Aftermuch debate through our Executive Committee this morning we have made the following gesture of goodwill regarding last night's abandonment.

"We will make a significant donation of £1000 to the FC United Development Fund from last night's gate receipts. We have also agreed with the FC United Executive Committee for reduced admission prices of £4 adults and £2 all concessions to the revised fixture as and when the UniBond League reschedule this.

"On top of this, for the revised fixture only, the first 500 people through the turnstiles will receive a free programme."I would like to commend everybody for the sensible and calm way the ground was evacuated last night and apologise once again for any inconvenience caused.

"The FC United Executive have thanked us for our actions last night and our kind gesture today and our great relationship with them continues."
