Supporters Guide: Walsall v Stockport – News

The Saddlers are back at the Poundland Bescot Stadium this evening as we welcome Stockport County.

Here is a useful, detailed guide for supporters attending tonight’s game.

TICKETS

Tickets for tonight’s game are still available to purchase either from the Ticket Office or via our e-ticketing site here.

Please note, the Poundland Stand is very busy and has limited availability in the lower and middle tier.

We would like to remind supporters that Under-12s can watch all home league games for free by joining Swifty’s Squad and attending each match with a full-paying adult or senior citizen.

We have now introduced the option for supporters to scan a QR code to purchase tickets (see below).

Posters will also be dotted around the ground; simply scan the code and you will be taken directly to our e-ticketing site.

Supporters are reminded to please sit in the seat you are allocated.

MINUTE’S SILENCE

There will be a minute’s silence ahead of kick-off this season to pay our respects to former scholar Cody Fisher who tragically passed away.

#NOHOMEKIT CAMPAIGN

The Saddlers will be wearing their white strip away in support of Shelter’s #NoHomeKit campaign which is aimed to raise awareness of the lack of a home for many this Christmas.

Tonight’s game will be streamed live on iFollow to UK and international viewers.

Video match passes are available for £10 and audio match passes are available for just £2.50 for tomorrow’s game.

More details here.

STADIUM SUITE

The Stadium Suite will be open from 6pm to all home supporters.

It will also be open during the half-time interval but will close at the end of the half-time break and will not be open after the game.

This will be the case for the entirety of the 2022/23 season.

We expect the suite to be busy before the match. It is licensed to a certain capacity and should we reach that capacity, we will be unable to accommodate further supporters so please be aware entry to the Stadium Suite is on a first come first serve basis.

COMMUNITY HUB

The Mick Kearns Community Hub, situated in the lower tier, will be open before the game and at half time to supporters in the lower tier.

It will also be open after the game.

AWAY BAR

Stockport supporters will have access to the away bar in the concourse of the away end.

CASH CARDS

We would like to inform supporters that all cash cards will expire on 1st January 2023.

The cash cards were introduced at the start of the 2021/22 season to aid the transition from cash to cashless.

The expiry of cash cards will bring us in line with other cashless venues and make us a fully cashless stadium.

Please ensure all remaining credit is used by Sunday’s match against Mansfield Town.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

PROGRAMS

We have an 80-page special edition program for tonight’s match and Sunday’s match.

The issue includes special features on the Poundland Bescot Stadium following the recent announcement of the club acquiring the freehold.

Pick up a copy for £4!
