    2022/23 Season Tickets now on sale

    Season tickets for the 2022/23 campaign are now on sale.

    You are able to renew or purchase your season ticket for the upcoming campaign here.

    2021/22 saw a record number of you commit to getting behind the team and committing to a season ticket. The club are, as ever, hugely appreciative of your support.

    Following a top-six finish and confirmation of our first-ever adventure in the UEFA Europa Conference League, a season ticket will not only guarantee you priority tickets, should they be limited, but also a discount on our first European match at Fir Park in a few months.

    Our popular WELLevate scheme for free junior season tickets and our Well In scheme, providing free season tickets for the unemployed, will also be continued in 2022/23.

    It’s easy to buy new. Head here to our online ticketing platform and then press ‘season tickets’.

    You’ll then be given the option to choose where in the stadium you would like to sit. From there, you can create yourself an account and then buy your season ticket for the 2022/23 campaign.

    Alternatively, call us on 01698 333333 or email tickets@motherwellfc.co.uk.

    What’s different this year

    We’ve made a few changes to our pricing categories.

    We have switched our Junior ticket so that you qualify if you are 11 and under. At the same time, we are expanding our discount offering on the Young Adult category to now include everyone from ages 12 through 17.

    The other change is that we are increasing our concession ticket age group, bringing us into line with the rest of the Scottish Premiership clubs, to age 65 and over. However, any renewing season ticket holder currently aged 59 to 64 will continue to enjoy a concession discount until they reach the age of 65.

    We are extending the option to pay your season ticket over a maximum of six standing order payments directly to the club, with no interest payments of fees, providing full payment is made by December 2022.

    Prices

    For those renewing their season ticket from 2021/22, concession tickets are for anyone aged 59 and over. For those buying new in 2022/23, it’s 65 and over.

    In addition, concession prices also apply to full time students with a valid matriculation card.

    The Early Bird discount will end on Friday 17th June 2022.

    A message from the Chairman

    First off, I want to thank you for your interest in purchasing a season ticket for the 2022/23 campaign.

    Fir Park has always been a home from home for me, I’ve spent the last sixty years of my life coming to this ground, making memories, enjoying magical moments and, too often, dealing with despair. It makes football what it is.

    This year we again ask you to help underpin the financial health of Motherwell FC by renewing your season ticket for the forthcoming campaign. I very much hope you will continue to do so with the same unwavering loyalty and generosity that Motherwell fans have demonstrated across the decades, but particularly so in the last few challenging years.

    Our aim is to always do the right thing by you, our supporters and that was particularly true during the Covid-19 crisis. We stood by our promise to roll over season tickets from the ‘behind closed doors’ 2020-21 campaign, into the current 2021-2022 season.

    That, together with our Well In scheme, which was backed so fantastically by other ‘Well fans and helped 750 supporters attend matches when they otherwise wouldn’t have been able to follow the team, combined to give us almost 5,700 season ticket holders. Our best total by some distance.

    As we emerge from the pandemic, we do appreciate life is tough and pressures still exist. We’ve tried to make this season ticket easier and more flexible than ever to buy by increasing the option to spread interest free payments. But what is very true is that we need you now more than perhaps any time in our history.

    Motherwell FC is fully fan-owned and therefore, fully fan-funded. Our determination to compete, our attempts to recruit the best players to maintain a challenge for the top-six and European football, our dedication to maintain our academy at elite status our willingness to continue to improve our facilities, depends entirely on your support and backing. We literally couldn’t do any of those things without you.

    Clubs often say that season ticket holders are the lifeblood of the club. As a fan-owned club, that really is true.

    For our part, the club will continue to examine new ways of generating additional revenue streams and look at ways to streamline costs and make the club more efficient. We will roll these out over the coming months.

    But this needs to be done whilst remaining competitive in what is probably the most challenging top league in Scotland for decades.  It is not an easy balance to get right, but it is essential that we do. Our club only works properly and with a chance of success when all the component parts – fans, owners, playing and coaching staff, the management team and the board – work in unison.

    We have done that so well since the transition to fan ownership and I once again ask you to come with us on the journey for 2022/2023.

    Thanks

    Jim McMahon
    Chairman

    WELLevate scheme

    We are delighted to continue our WELLevate offer, which has been running now for a decade.

    Any Adult or Senior Citizen Concession ticket can claim one free Junior ticket in the John Hunter Stand and Phil O’Donnell Stand and up to two in the Davie Cooper Stand.

    We are making one small adjustment to the offering this season. On several occasions during the 2021/22 campaign, we have been unable to sell matchday tickets in the John Hunter Stand, with it being effectively ‘sold out’, despite a significant amount of seats lying empty, the majority of which are non-attending WELLevate tickets.

    In order to try and avoid that, we are asking anyone wishing to take advantage of the scheme to do so at the point of renewing / purchasing and not on an ad-hoc basis during the campaign.

    Pay by Standing Order

    We are offering the option of paying for your season ticket through a standing order payment each month.

    There is the option to pay your season ticket over a maximum of six standing order payments directly to the club, with no interest payments of fees, providing full payment is made by December 2022.

    To set this standing order up, you must contact us directly.

    We are available on 01698 333333 or email tickets@motherwellfc.co.uk.

    Activating your online account

    If you haven’t already registered online and are a season ticket holder, you must activate your account.

    If you’re a season ticket holder looking to renew your season tickets and/or buy cup game tickets, you must activate your account before you can buy.

    Verify your contact details, including an email you have access to, and create a password. Then, save your details. You’re in.

    I am renewing

    If you wish to renew your season ticket, all you have to do is login to your online ticketing profile at the top right hand side of the page.

    Once you have done this, you will be taken back to the main page.

    Select ‘season tickets’ at the top right. You should then have a notification to ‘renew now’.

    Then select ‘add to basket’ and follow the on screen instructions to complete the transaction.

    Due to alterations of prices, there will be a wait before your season ticket card is sent to you directly.

    I didn’t have a 2021/22 season ticket and I want to buy one

    It’s easy to do this. Head here and then press the profile icon in the top right.

    From here, select ‘create an account’ and fill out your personal details.

    Once completed, you will be sent an email with your customer number.

    You will be taken back to the homepage of the website where you then select ‘season tickets’.

    You’ll then be given the option to choose where in the stadium you would like to sit.

    Alternatively, call us on 01698 333333 or email tickets@motherwellfc.co.uk.

    The Well In scheme

    The Well In scheme, which was launched last summer to help families from low income and unemployed households continue to watch their team, will return again in 2022.

    After matched funding, that led to almost 750 people in the local area being able to watch their team when circumstances may had prevented them.

    We are once asking supporters who feel financially able to donate towards the scheme this year.

    To donate, please go to donate.motherwellfc.co.uk or alternatively you can call us on 01698 333333.

    New hybrid pitch to be installed

    New hybrid pitch to be installed

    On Thursday of this week, we will begin significant development works at the stadium with the installation of a new hybrid pitch at Fir Park. 

    We have selected industry-experts SIS Pitches, who will work in partnership with AllGrass, to rebuild the pitch literally from the ground up.

    That will see the clearing of the current pitch, and the previous one that still exists beneath the current surface, the installation of an enhanced drainage system, a new irrigation system and new undersoil heating piping.

    When the pitch construction is concluded and seed is in the ground, around five week’s worth of work, SIS will then complete the process of ‘stitching’ the new surface.

    Hybrid football pitches consist of 95% natural grass which is reinforced with synthetic stitched fibres. That allows greater durability, enhanced drainage and longer playing time with the feel of real grass.

    When complete, Motherwell will be the fourth Scottish Premiership club to have a hybrid pitch following Celtic, Hearts and Rangers’ installations in recent years.

    “For the last decade or more, the club has spent considerable cash, each summer, patching up the pitch to try and get us through the following season,” Chief Executive Alan Burrows said.

    “Owing almost exclusively to the skill and talent of Paul Matthew, our current Head Groundsman, and his deputies, we have seen a marked improvement over the last few years, albeit the root problems continue to persist under the surface and maintaining a reliable, stable pitch is becoming increasingly more challenging, particularly through the winter months.

    “We are throwing away good money every year by not fully fixing this issue.

    “So the Board have decided to do just that, which will not only provide an enhanced and reliable playing surface, but will also materially reduce the annual maintenance costs and allow us to further commercialise the pitch and the stadium, much like we have done in the past, but have been unable to in recent times because of the poor pitch construction.

    “As a part of that rebuilding process, we also plan to reduce the slope of the pitch, which runs from the Cooper/Hunter Stand corner at its highest point, to the McLean/O’Donnell Stand corner at its lowest, by half of what it is now.

    “That will improve the playability of the pitch for players, whilst significantly enhancing the sight lines in both the Cooper and McLean stands lower corners.”

    Rangers game switched to Saturday

    Rangers game switched to Saturday

    This weekend’s match with Rangers will now go ahead on Saturday 23 April, with a noon kick off.

    Rangers made a request to the Scottish Professional Football League, Police Scotland and to host broadcasters, Sky Sports, to seek permission to bring the game forward 24 hours.

    Following approval from those bodies, Motherwell FC agreed to the proposal.

    “Based on significant feedback over the years, we believe most of our fans would rather watch a match on a Saturday rather than a Sunday, and with our only other home fixture after the split being a Wednesday night, that was at the forefront of our thinking,” Chief Executive Alan Burrows said.

    “In addition, the club believe it sensible to support all Scottish clubs playing in European matches.

    “That being said, we would like to sincerely apologise for the length of time taken to make this call and the subsequent lack of notice of the change, which has been largely out with our control. We were initially approached on Good Friday, but we were only given confirmation of the change at 3:10pm today (Tuesday 19th).”

    Keith Lasley to depart at the end of the season

    Keith Lasley to depart at the end of the season

    Keith Lasley will leave Motherwell this summer to become St Mirren’s new Chief Operating Officer.

    The ‘Well legend has spent more than 20 years at Fir Park as a player, captain, coach and, most recently, assistant manager.

    The 42-year-old is currently enrolled on the Masters of Sport Directorship at Manchester Metropolitan University with a view to taking a new route into the non-playing side of football, and that has been expedited by St Mirren’s vacancy and offer.

    “We were very keen for Keith to stay at Motherwell and have helped him in his development towards a new career path but we also acknowledge this is a very exciting opportunity for him,” chairman Jim McMahon said.

    “Keith has been a fantastic servant to Motherwell, he is a legend in every sense of the word. We thank him for all his hard work, effort and dedication, on and off the field, across two decades and wish him well for the future.”

    Lasley joined the Steelmen in the late 1990s under then boss Billy Davies and finished as one the highest appearance holders in Fir Park history, playing almost 500 games in claret and amber.

    He was rewarded for his impeccable playing service with a testimonial match against Bolton Wanderers in 2015.

    Graham Alexander added: “I am reluctant to lose Keith from our coaching staff as we have a very good relationship, and he plays a significant part in what we do.

    “However, when he set out the direction in which he saw his career going and then with this role presented itself, it was clear it was too good for him to turn down.

    “I want to personally thank him for all his help and support over the last 16 months and wish him every success in his new role.”

    “It has been a pleasure and a privilege to serve Motherwell Football Club for 20 years,” Lasley said.

    “There have been some very special moments along the way. From making my debut at the age of 19 through to captaining the club and ultimately on to my current role as assistant manager, I have enjoyed every single minute.

    “This club means so much to me and my family, and will continue to do so. I will continue to serve the club with great pride and determination until the end of the season and wish Graham, his staff, the players and everyone at the club continued success in the future.”
