The excitement is palpable as local football fans gear up for the new season with the delightful news that "Football for a Fiver" is making its much-anticipated return to Latham Park.

The Robins are all set to kick-off the season in style by offering fans the chance to watch their favorite team in action for just five pounds.

In addition to this pocket-friendly deal, the club is also offering reduced season-tickets, giving loyal supporters the opportunity to experience all the thrilling moments throughout the season without breaking the bank.

Last season's success in Phase 2 witnessed impressive crowds, with an average of over 400 fans attending games, and an astonishing 1,823 supporters showing up for the thrilling play-off final. With such fantastic support, The Robins are eagerly looking forward to expanding their fan base and welcoming new supporters to the fold for the upcoming season.

One of the key initiatives that will be up and running this season is the highly successful "Next Generation Robins" program. Spearheaded by the dedicated Community Officer, Dylan Downs, this initiative aims to engage and inspire young football enthusiasts, fostering a passion for the sport and nurturing the talent of future football stars.

The excitement continues to build with the introduction of the new "Barmy Army" badge in the Robins' home shirt design. This badge is now available exclusively for the junior supporters, ensuring that the young fans have something special to cherish and connect with as they cheer on their beloved team.

The Robins are gearing up for an action-packed pre-season. On Saturday, August 5th, as the club takes on Guilsfield in the League Cup. The kick-off is set for 5 pm, and fans are eagerly awaiting the clash between the two competitive teams.

The real action begins on Saturday, August 12th, when The Robins open their League campaign by welcoming Penybont to Latham Park. This will be a thrilling encounter, and supporters are already gearing up to turn up in full force to cheer their team to victory.

With the combination of affordable match tickets, reduced season-tickets, and exciting initiatives for young fans, The Robins are all set to make the new season a memorable one. So mark your calendars and be ready to experience the thrill and passion of football at Latham Park. Whether you're a seasoned supporter or a new fan, there's no better time to join The Robins' community and be a part of the footballing magic.
