Lions To Host Stockport County Friendly

We can confirm that Vanarama National League side Stockport County will travel to Nethermoor for a pre-season friendly.

The game will take place on Saturday 7th August with kick-off at 3pm, just seven days ahead of the start of the 2021/22 Vanarama National League North season.

Tickets are available to purchase online, we recommend purchasing in advance to avoid disappointment and to help queuing on the day at the turnstiles, get yours here.

It is the third season on the spin the Greater Manchester based side will make the trip over to Nethermoor Park for a friendly.

County missed out on promotion back to the EFL with a play off defeat to eventual winners Hartlepool United and will be going full tilt for another challenge next season.

The Lions also travelled to Edgeley Park during the cut short 2020/21 season for a Buildbase FA Trophy Third Round in which County came out on top for the first time in seven competitive matches between the two sides.

Stockport are now managed by Simon Rusk following Jim Gannon’s departure during last season but there’s two familiar faces in their squad in former Lions Ash Palmer and John Rooney.

It is the eighth confirmed friendly for The Lions with home games against Everton U23’s, Bradford City, Leeds United and FC Halifax Town and away trips to Ilkley Town, Yorkshire Amateur and Gainsborough Trinity.
