In the cases of Schofield:
On any day that Wrexham Town AFC play a regulated football match away from their home
stadium during the period commencing three hours prior to kick off and ending six hours
after kick-off, enter any area which is within 100 yards of the main entrance to Chester
railway station except for the purposes of his work with the Royal Mail,

In the case of each appellant the order will last for four years from January 7, 2005, the date
when they were sentenced.
