Getting There:
From M6, J19. Follow the
A556 towards Northwich for approximately 3 miles. Turn right onto
the A559 towards Lostock (just as the road becomes a dual
carriageway). Turn right at the traffic lights immediately before
the Slow and Easy public house. Turn left at the crossroads by the
Black Greyhound public house (Signposted). Follow the road until the
Renault Garage (Lookers), on the left, turn left into Wincham
Avenue. The ground is at the bottom of the road on the right.
Parking: There is a large car park at the
stadium. £2 charge per car.
By Train: The nearest station is Northwich which
is about 2 miles away.
The Stadium: Officially opened in 2005,
the Victoria Stadium is a neat and tidy ground (be even better when
they finish it!). The focal point of the stadium is the Victoria
Stand, which is all seated and covers half the length of the pitch
on one side. Opposite this is the Danebank Terrace which was
originally part of the old Drill Field ground and was transported
here piece by piece.
The two ends of the ground are both open
terraces, one of which is unsurprisingly allocated to visiting fans.
Admission Prices: Seating: Adults £14,
Concessions £12, U16 £7, U11 £3.50
Terrace: Adults £12 Concessions £10, U16 £5, U11
£2.50

Fans Views
Name: Maggie Nixon
Describe your club in one sentence. Hard
work sometimes, but watching them is still the best way to spend a
Saturday afternoon.
What are your expectations for this season? Mid-table, hopefully
nearer the top than the bottom.
How was last season for your club? Better than expected,
given the injuries we suffered and the fixture congestion at the end
of the season which saw us playing 15 matches in 40 days.
What is the best signing you have made this season, and why?
Simon Rusk, he looked good in pre-season and has been great in the
two matches so far, scoring at Ebbsfleet. Not bad for a right back.
Any shock departures? Where do you want to start.....Steve
Burr, Paul Brayson, Danny Mayman.
What can visiting fans expect on a trip to your club? A good
stadium in the middle of an industrial estate, a good playing
surface and good views from the Danebank stand.
Which game are you looking forward to most, and why? Torquay
away, never been before and we will make a weekend of it.
Where is the best place to get a pint and a pie before the game?
Not sure, but there is a bar at the ground and I hear the Salt Barge
in Wincham is OK.
What are your predictions for the games
against Burton Albion? Two close home wins.
