Doodson Sport Cup - Ashton at Stalybridge

On Wednesday 4th December, FC United’s home game against Ashton United in the Doodson Sport League Cup will be played at Bower Fold, home of Stalybridge Celtic.

The postcode for the ground is SK15 2RT. Directions to Bower Fold can be found on Stalybridge’s website here

How to get there by public transport

For supporters without a car, getting to and from Bower Fold is straightforward by public transport.

The railway station is well served by trains from both Victoria and Piccadilly. Buses connect with the trains at the station and there’s a bus stop right outside the ground.

Of course if you’re feeling energetic (or want to stop off at a couple of pubs on the way) it’s a walk of just over a mile to/from the station.

What’s on?

Most of what happens at a home game at Gigg Lane will also be happening on Wednesday:

- The membership stall will be located inside the ground, where our trusty volunteers will be on hand to help you with membership applications, Community Share Scheme information, copies of the Pink (while stocks last!) and to provide general club information to supporters.

- The Pound for the Ground raffle will take place at half time where you can win £200.

- The Matchday Programme sellers will be out in force, don’t miss this Wednesday’s edition at only £1.50, all proceeds go to club funds.

- The social club will be open both before the match and at half time (located inside the ground).

- The Megastall will be pitched up temporarily inside the ground and will have a variety of merchandise available.

- The Development Fund barrels will be located around the ground for your loose change. .

The early turnstiles will be open at 6:30pm, so get there in good time.

Don’t forget this is a cup game so season tickets are not valid. Usually admission prices of £8 adults, £5 concessions and £2 under 18s apply.
