The EFL has reminded clubs that James McClean often faces abuse from fans, leading to incidents where missiles were thrown at him, including a cup of Bovril.
Due to the ongoing abuse Mr. McClean endures, the EFL has decided he will now exit the pitch toward the tunnel to avoid further incidents.
McClean's refusal to wear a poppy during Remembrance Day has led to increased hostility from fans, viewing it as disrespect to fallen soldiers.
The protocol change, allowing McClean to leave the pitch by the shortest route to the tunnel, aims to enhance his safety during matches.
