2021/22 Friendlies

[PIRATE OF ZARAGOZA]

I would imagine we will hear something on this next week.

Has anyone heard any whispers on home friendly fixtures as yet??? I think a game against Cheltenham was mentioned???

Cheltenham have a friendly away to a unnamed non league side on the 20th July so I'm guessing that might be Harriers.

Stourport Swifts (A)* – Tue 13th July – 7:45pm
Evesham United (A) – Sat 17th July – 3:00pm
Cheltenham Town (H) – Tue 20th July – 7:00pm
Walsall (H) – Sat 24th July – 3:00pm
Stratford Town (A) – Tue 27th July – 7:45pm

Officially announced. No mention of the Wolves U21 game but that could be behind closed doors.

Reading the pricing for the two home games is a little confusing. Also expensive if you buy at the gate.

Advance or online purchase is priced at £12 for adults, £8 for Over 65s/Student/Young Adult 18-21 and £1 for U16s. Please note, purchases made at the box office on the day of the game are subject to a £2 surcharge (except for junior tickets).

For supporters wanting to attend both matches, adults wishing to purchase full price tickets for both matches can save money by purchasing a bundle for £20, entitling entry to both fixtures in the same stand.

In line with the club’s desire to welcome more families to Aggborough Stadium, we’re delighted to announce a family ticket, enabling two adults and two U16s entry to a friendly for £20 in the East Stand only. This is available for both home friendlies

So does that mean that concessions etc do not get a discount for buying both game tickets together?

Looks that way, it says "full price" suppose they consider £8 is reasonable.

I`m assuming i can get into the 2 home games free due to giving up my st, not sure how that will work.

Only the Walsall game will be free to ST holders from last season.

I just went on the Harriers shop tickets section and got both matches free

Still, an interesting fixture.

Ethan Laird, Nathan Bishop and Dylan Levitt are all highly rated and will probably be in the first team within 3 years.

Greenwood, McTominay and Rashford all came from the U23's and James Garner is the latest to be promoted.

We'll be there.
