Unfortunately, the lift up to the raised level accessible, wheelchair user seating at Prenton Park has been out of action for our last few home games. The club have repairs scheduled and hope it will be operational again ahead of the Walsall game on Saturday.

We are currently working with Tranmere Rovers on alternative options and a long-term plan should any issues arise again in the future. We will release these as soon as we have something confirmed in place.

In the meantime, the club have tried to contact everyone they believe may be affected for tonight’s game.

If you have not heard anything, please contact the Tranmere Rovers FC Supporter Liaison Officers on [email protected] or on whatsapp (message only) on 07984 221087 and they will be happy to assist.

Unfortunately, the lift up to the raised level accessible/♿️ seating at Prenton Park is still currently out of action.

We will be working with the club to try to get this fixed as soon as possible.

The lift up to the hospitality areas is currently out of use.

We’re working with the club to ensure appropriate reasonable adjustments are made for fans affected and will communicate further when we know more about it being back in service 🇸🇱⚽️♿️

A message to supporters:

As we get set to welcome the 2024/25 league campaign and the SWA prepare to attend EFL matches up and down the country, I hope we are all united by a renewed sense of hope and optimism for the season to come.

Sadly, in recent days towns and cities across the country have seen some unsavoury scenes that nobody wants to see a repeat of, now or anytime in the future.

Football has a unique ability to bring people together. If you support the Club and its values, you are welcome at Prenton Park whatever your race, religion or political beliefs as long as you treat others with tolerance and respect.

Tranmere has always aimed to create a sense of belonging for people from all backgrounds and provide positive and memorable experiences, whether that be at Prenton Park, at away games or by participating in or through the community programmes that we run.

We pride ourselves on being a welcoming community Club and work to provide a sense of identity, family, and togetherness. It is that football and community spirit that continues to win hearts and minds and why we must do whatever we can to look after and protect it, now more than ever.

Enjoy the new season.

Mark and Nicola

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 England players and staff were targets of online ableist slurs throughout the group stage.

💬 This included over 100 cases where Gareth Southgate was called a r*tard, on X alone.

📈 Disability abuse is rising year-on-year as a barrier to attending live sport.
