The Football Association and National League System clubs
Friday
The FA has banned solid brick, concrete and breeze-block pitchside walls from its stadium accreditation rules after former Arsenal academy player Billy Vigar died following a collision with a concrete barrier while playing for Chichester City.
Clubs across men’s National League System Steps 1 to 6 and Women’s National League tiers 3 and 4 must remove the barriers or install suitable protection. The FA and Premier League will provide funding through the Premier League Stadium Fund.
