Cheltenham Town are the visitors to Blundell Park tonight in Sky Bet League Two, kick-off 3pm.

We will be looking to build on our positive start to the season against the Robins who parted company with their manager Michael Flynn after defeat at Oldham Athletic last weekend.

Listen to what David Artell said about tomorrow’s game in yesterday’s press conference:

Tickets can still be purchased by clicking here or by visiting the Ticket Office from 9am tomorrow up until kick-off.

We do have good availability in the Osmond Stand where 1878 Club members can unlock exclusive prices of £20 for adults and £5 for concessions. There is limited availability in the Ramsden’s Home Interiors Stand, Technical Absorbents Stand and Pontoon.

Dave Worthington book signing 

We’re thrilled to welcome back former Mariner Dave Worthington for a special signing of his new autobiography, ‘Worthy’ in the Club Shop between 12 and 1pm.

In his book, Dave reflects on his incredible journey from his playing days – from making 293 appearances in the league for GTFC, to a 20-year career as a Premier League scout, working with clubs like Bolton, Chelsea, and Everton. The book offers a behind the scenes look at football, sharing stories of discovering rising stars, working alongside top managers, and the experiences that shaped his life in the game.

The former Mariners skipper will also be our guest in McMenemy’s and will take part in a pre-match Q&A.

 

The Fan Zone will be open for supporters from 12pm, with the Chicken Man and Docks Beers providing refreshments. The Lower Bar will also open from 12pm, with other bars around the ground opening from 1:30pm when the turnstiles open.

Tomorrow’s food caterers around the ground are:

Lower Ramsden’s Home Interiors – Food Dudes

Upper Ramsden’s Home Interiors – Sharky’s

Pontoon – The Dogs

Technical Absorbents Stand – Cooky Cooks

Osmond Stand – Hatricks

Away End – Dave at the No1

The Mariner will be available to purchase around the ground for £3. Inside you will find an exclusive interview with Evan Khouri and a look at our opponents and so much more.

The Club Shop will be open from 9am until kick-off for supporters to get their hands on some Mariners merch or souvenirs.

Mighty Mariner will be around the ground from 2pm onwards and will be available for photos with supporters. If tomorrow is someone’s first game, just contact fran@gtfc.co.uk and we’ll provide you with a complimentary certificate.

We’d like to remind fans to enter Blundell Park by the entrance stated on their ticket to avoid any delays.
