On Saturday 12th August, kick off 3pm, FC United welcome Kidderminster Harriers to Broadhurst Park in the National League North.
Admission is pay on the gate: £10 Adults, £6 Concessions and £3 u/18s.

FC defender Matty Hughes who missed the first two matches will be available for selection on Saturday. Scott Kay and Lewis Lacy are still serving suspensions carried over from last season. Full back Jake Williams has now joined Buxton on a dual registration with FC. New signing Danny Brady is still away.

FREE Shuttle Bus from the Hare and Hounds Pub at Shudehill in Manchester to the ground before the match, picking up at the Railway Pub next to Newton Heath/Moston Metrolink stop. The return Shuttle Bus only goes to the Newton Heath/Moston Metroklink Stop after the game.

This match will be unsegregated and all supporters can gain access to the ground via turnstiles 1-6 at the St. Mary’s Road End of the ground or 9-12 at the Lightbowne Road End.

Turnstile 4 at the St. Mary’s Road End is a designated Donation turnstile which allows supporters to donate money in addition to the normal admission price. The DF Turnstile accepts Adults, Concessions, Juniors entering with a Season Ticket, Match Tickets or cash.

Turnstiles will open at approximately 1.30pm. Supporters arriving before the turnstiles open can gain access to the ground via the main entrance in the Main Stand.

For this season, in partnership with our ticketing partner Eventim, Season Tickets will be issued in the form of a plastic card with barcode that will be scanned at the turnstiles.

Unfortunately there has been a slight delay in getting these cards produced in time for the our first two home matches of the season, so physical matchday tickets for Saturday’s match with Kidderminster Harriers have been posted out to all Season Ticket Holders at no cost to the club or Season Ticket Holder. If your tickets haven’t arrived by Saturday morning, all you need to do is to come to the community cabin before kick-off with proof of purchase or proof of ID and we’ll sort you out with a match ticket.

Season Ticket Cards will be posted out immediately after the Kidderminster match in time for our third home match of the season against Boston United on Saturday 26th August ko 3pm

Season Tickets and Memberships can be bought from the Community Cabin, outside the ground, and Membership Stall inside the ground located between the Main Stand and SMRE terrace.

Both home and away supporters will have access to all bars and food provision.

The Main Stand Function Room Bar will serve hot food together with alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks before the match. Alcohol will not be sold in the function room at half time but soft drinks, teas and coffees and food will be available.

**On Saturday, we have a function booked in the Main Stand Bar after the match, so the Main Stand Bar will be closed shortly after half-time. The SMRE Bar will be open after the match.**

Before the turnstiles open, access to the Main Stand Function Room Bar is via the main reception by payment of the match admission price. After the turnstiles open, entry to the function room will be via turnstiles 1-6 or 9-12 and then through the seated area of the main stand.

The SMRE Bar situated under the St. Mary’s Road End terrace will serve draught beer and bottles before the match at half-time and after the match. Hot food, tea and coffee will also be served at the far end of the SMRE Bar.

Under the Main Stand Food Bar will serve hot food prepared by our chef and pies from Mettricks and non-alcoholic drinks.

The current bottom three clubs have failed so score so far this season, Kidderminster, Blyth Spartans and North Ferriby United.
The Harriers failed to score in both meetings with FCUM in 2016-17.
FCUM’s worst start to a season after 3 games was 2009-10 (1 point LLD) and 2015-16 (1 point LLD)
Jason Gilchrist was the last player to score in 3 successive games, against Gloucester City (H 2-4), Bradford PA (H 2-3) and Stalybridge Celtic (A 4-2) in Oct-Nov 2016.
