HOBBO RETURNS, CLEAN UP DAY & TICKET PRICES

(24th June 2009) 

Manager Chris Dolby has started the process of building his squad for the forthcoming season and on Monday night held a formal  signing session for the players currently available and not on holiday. Amongst the group was former Sheffield favourite, centre back Jon Hobson who joins us from Belper Town, for whom he was skipper last season and was voted Players Player of the Year in 2007-2008. Training for the first team commences next Tuesday (30th June).

 

This coming Saturday (27th) the club has it's annual pre-season clean up day at the stadium and all supporters and friends are welcome to come along and help with the tidy up. Bring along any tools etc that may be of use and obviously appropriately dressed.

 

Admission prices for the coming season remain unchanged. Admission is £6 (£3 for concessions). These prices also apply to the forthcoming friendly games although unlike last season there will be no season ticket on offer to cover these games. The season ticket prices for all league games also remain the same - £70 if bought before the end of July, £90 thereafter. Concessionary season tickets are priced at £20 if bought before the end of July and £40 after that date.
