Thornaby FC is providing free season tickets to approximately 24,000 local residents in Thornaby, Stockton-on-Tees. This initiative, backed by Thornaby Town Council, aims to increase attendance at both men's and women's home league fixtures for the 2026/27 season. The club's chief operating officer, Ryan McKnight, has been advocating for this program for over a decade and describes its launch as a significant milestone for the community. Interested residents must claim their tickets by July 31. Thornaby FC previously faced criticism regarding its women's team, but attendance is hoped to improve significantly with this offer.
