#FiveorFree Football Day at Scunthorpe United

A tough season for Scunthorpe United with Mark Robins departing earlier in the campaign after some inconsistent results.

Having improved under their caretaker management duo, the Iron are finishing on a positive note under new boss Graham Alexander and Saturday's 3-2 victory away to relegated Crewe Alexandra keeps them in the top ten in League One and with mathematical hopes still of making the play-offs.

The town itself has had a difficult year and the football club have sought to recognise this, organising the excellent #SaveourSteel day against Southend United in the FA Cup in October.


News this week has been more positive on that front as well, investment firm Greybull Capital agreeing a deal to buy Tata's Scunthorpe plant.

The final home fixture of the season is against Port Vale on Saturday 30 April at 3pm and the club have decided to reduce prices for Adults in all areas of the ground to £5 with all Under-18’s tickets free of charge.

Speaking to the official club website, chairman Peter Swann said: "We want to build on the positivity here at the moment and take that momentum into next season, when we will look to push on even further.”
