Solihull Moors Match Arrangements 30th April

On Saturday 30th April 2016, FC United welcome the newly crowned Vanarama National League North champions, Solihull Moors, to Broadhurst Park for our final league match of the season. The match will be played at Broadhurst Park, 310 Lightbowne Road, Moston, M40 0FJ and the kick off time is 3pm.

Please note that it is Youth United Day on Saturday and, with the number of spectators expected to attend this match, it has been reluctantly decided that segregation will be in place. Solihull Moors supporters are asked to enter the ground through turnstiles 7 and 8 at the Lightbowne Road end of the ground.

Entry to the function room bar, for FC United supporters only, can be gained through the main reception from 12 noon until the turnstiles open by cash payment of the match admission as outlined below or by presenting your season ticket voucher, number 21.

Adults £9
Over 60s £5
Under 18s £2

After the turnstiles open, entry to the bar will be for home supporters only through turnstiles 1 to 6, 9-12 and then through the seated area of the main stand. The late turnstile will be at the South East corner of the ground. Full price entry will apply while the late gate is open. All categories accepted.

The bottle bar under the St Mary’s Road end terrace will be open before the match and again at half time.

Please note the function room will have hot food on sale before the match and again at half time. Also please note that alcohol will not be sold in the function room at half time but soft drinks, teas and coffees will be available, in addition to hot food.

Tickets for the Newton Heath branch ‘End of Season’ party, to be held on Sunday 1st May at the ground, will be on sale at the membership stall and from branch members. Tickets are priced at £8.

Parking
Parking is very limited at the ground and supporters using the Club’s car park should be aware of lots of youngsters who may be in that area. Also, supporters should be mindful that there is no parking on:

- St Mary’s Road and the streets off St Mary’s Road;
- Nuthurst Road;
- the West side of Moston Lane and the streets off it.

For £3, there is safe parking at St Matthew’s RC High School, which is less than five minutes’ walk away from the ground.

Public Transport
The nearest tram stop is Newton Heath and Moston on the Victoria to Rochdale line. It is a 15 or 20 minute walk up to the ground, but there is a shuttle bus from the Railway pub (turn right at the top of the tram stop steps).

Football Special buses from City Centre
There will also be two football special buses running from Stevenson Square in the city centre to the ground. The buses are operated by First Buses and they leave from Stop TE in Stevenson Square. Departure times are 2pm and 2.20pm. The cost is £1.50 single. No return tickets available. They leave Broadhurst Park after the game when they are full. Departure is approximately five minutes after the final whistle, from Lightbowne Road.
