Please remember to take the advice given by @CelticFCDAO when attending matches at Celtic park. The front concourse at the main stand needs to be clear to allow visually impaired supporters to pass safely to their seats behind the dugout #AClubForAll #CelticFC

⚽️ Football clubs already have people in the stands who would benefit from audio descriptive commentary 🎧
Bringing in new supporters is a by product of introducing this service at clubs, as I explained in the @CeltExchange Podcast

'Being able to see the far side of the pitch, players expressions, fans cheering, it's fantastic'
Crystal Palace is the first football club in the world to offer permanent technology for fans who are visually impaired.
Sky's @Mollie_Malone1 explains.
