Dear All,

At the request of the ownership of Cross Keys, no analysis boards should be taken downstairs in the venue on Monday night (15th August) until the televised football match between Liverpool and Crystal Palace has concluded (around 10pm)

Games themselves are otherwise unaffected.

Thanks,

Sanjoy
