FC Halifax Town supporters heading to Rochdale’s Crown Oil Arena for the upcoming clash have key details to note. The Shaymen, finishing 8th in the 2025 National League table with 70 points (20 wins, 10 draws, 16 losses), will look to build on their recent form (2W-1D-2L) as they prepare for the new season.
How to Get Tickets
Tickets for the match are available online via Fanbase or in-person at the Main Reception Ticket Office from 10am. Home fans can sit in the David Kilpatrick Main Stand or Sandy Lane stand, while away supporters will be in the Willbutts Lane stand. Last season’s final league standing saw Halifax finish 38 points behind leaders York, but the team’s recent 2-1 win over Woking (2026-04-25) offers optimism.
Food and Drink Options
The Ratcliffe Bar opens at 5pm with food and hot drinks, though Main Stand supporters must visit before kick-off due to ongoing kiosk renovations. A temporary kiosk in the Sandy Lane end will offer a limited menu. The club’s new away kit, featuring a pink strip, will debut on Tuesday, with the Club Shop open from 4pm for purchases.
Season Card Collection
Physical 2026/27 Season Ticket holders can collect their cards from the Main Reception Ticket Office, open from 10am. With 69 goals scored and 66 conceded last season (+3 goal difference), Halifax aims to strengthen their attack under new management.
What to Expect
Fans can expect a lively atmosphere as Rochdale unveils their new away kit for the first time. The Shaymen’s recent form (WWLLD) includes a two-game winning streak, setting the stage for an exciting start to the season.
