Before the game, the 1878 supporters' group will lead a special welcome for the team, creating a lively atmosphere as the players arrive at the stadium. Details about the team's route to the stadium and safety information for fans will be shared through the club's channels in the lead-up to the game.
After the final whistle, the fans will be invited to stay in their seats for a special on-pitch celebration. This will feature guest presenters, appearances by current and former players, live music performances, and a big screen showing specially curated content that captures the history and memories of the stadium. The ceremony, called "End of an Era," will last about an hour.
This will be a bittersweet occasion for fans, who will be saying goodbye to the stadium for the last time before the club moves to their new home on Bramley-Moore Dock. Thousands are expected to attend the game, making it an emotional moment in the club's history.
