Transport alert

Midweek kick-off

A 19:45 start in Stockport means the last realistic train back leaves around 22:15. Check the connection before you buy a ticket.

Transport alert

Bank holiday network works

Easter and the May bank holidays are the heaviest engineering weekends of the year. April trips into Stockport should be planned around a possible line closure.

Edgeley Park is tightly packed into residential streets — expect a squeeze on busy matchdays.
