Visiting fans will have to wait a little longer for a roof.

Scarborough Athletic play their first home game of the season tomorrow.

But the visiting Banbury fans will have to do without the new away stand the construction of which has been hit by a delay.

Boro Chairman Trevor Bull says some progress has been made but it may be a couple of months before the new stand is in place.

Scarborough's ground has see some major changes over the summer and although the new away stand isn't yet fully in place, club chairman Trevor Bull says both home and away fans will notice the difference.

Boro have been able to make an extra 100 season tickets available for home fans following the alterations to the away end.

Saturday's game will also see the first use of the new Fan Zone the club say:

"Our brand new Fan Zone, located behind the Fortus stand will be open for the first time!

Although a work in progress, we are delighted that The Victory Bar will be open from 12pm, as well as a new food van and coffee shack. We hope this will improve the fan experience and we hope you will support the club by supporting the Fan Zone.

Take 2 will be playing live in The Victory Bar from 1pm."
