Mariners Respects

We’re proud of the fantastic support we receive, home and away.

We also recognise that most supporters come to enjoy the match in a welcoming environment. Abusive or indecent language, as well as any discriminatory or threatening behaviour – including racist, homophobic, sexist, sectarian, xenophobic or anti-disability shouting, chanting or actions – has no place at our games.

The Club may issue bans, including indefinite bans, to anyone found to have engaged in discriminatory language or violent behaviour.

We thank supporters for their continued backing and wish everyone a safe journey to Cambridge.
