Welcome to the official Walsall FC homepage, your one-stop hub for all the latest club updates, confirmed fixture schedules, and real-time ticket booking services for the 2024/25 campaign. As the Saddlers gear up for their latest push for promotion out of EFL League Two, the club has shared a raft of exciting announcements for both long-time supporters and new fans joining the community this year.
First, on the transfer front: the club has officially completed the signing of 21-year-old forward Josh Stokes on a two-year deal from National League side Solihull Moors, with an option for a third year. Stokes, who scored 17 goals across all competitions last season, is set to make his pre-season debut in the friendly against Aston Villa U21s on July 27, and manager Mat Sadler has praised his pace, finishing ability, and willingness to fit into the club’s high-press playing style. Additional transfer updates are expected in the coming weeks, with the club confirming it is in advanced talks with a veteran central defender to shore up the backline for the upcoming season.
Next, the full 2024/25 EFL League Two fixture list is now live on the site, with key dates marked for supporters to plan their matchdays. The Saddlers will kick off their campaign away to Grimsby Town on August 3, before hosting their home opener against Milton Keynes Dons at Bescot Stadium on August 10. Other high-profile fixtures include a home clash against recently relegated Stockport County on October 19, and a Boxing Day away trip to near neighbours Wrexham. The club has also confirmed its EFL Cup first round tie against Championship side Sheffield Wednesday will take place at Bescot on August 13, with extra time and penalties on the cards if needed.
For ticket information, early-bird season ticket discounts are available until July 15, offering 12% off standard prices for all stands, with adult season tickets starting from just £299 for the full campaign. Single match tickets are now on sale for all pre-season friendlies and the first eight league matches, with adult tickets starting at £18, senior tickets at £12, and U12 tickets priced at just £2 when purchased with an adult ticket. Family bundles, which include two adults and two U16 tickets, are available for £40 for all regular league matches, making matchday access affordable for fans of all ages. The club has also launched a new digital membership scheme for 2024/25, offering exclusive benefits including early ticket access, 10% off all club shop purchases, and access to exclusive behind-the-scenes content with players and coaching staff.
Finally, the club’s annual pre-season fan open day will take place on July 21 at Bescot Stadium, running from 10am to 4pm. Fans will have the chance to meet the full first team squad, get autographs and photos, watch a public training session, and be the first to see the club’s new home and away kits for the 2024/25 season. Entry to the open day is free for all members, and £3 for non-members, with all proceeds going to the Walsall FC Community Trust, which supports local youth sports and community outreach programmes across the town.

Been a Saddlers season ticket holder for 18 years, and this year’s pre-season signings and fixture list have me more hyped than I’ve been since our 2015 promotion run! Snagged my early-bird ticket last week and already marked the home opener against MK Dons on my calendar – can’t wait to hear the Bescot roar again.
I’m travelling up from Bristol with my 8-year-old (who’s just started playing for his local youth team) for the September 14 clash against Notts County, and the affordable junior ticket prices are such a win for families. Does anyone know if there are pre-match stadium tours available that day?
Just moved to Walsall for work last month and decided to pick a local team to support, and the welcome info on this site is so helpful! I’ve already booked my ticket for the fan open day, and I’m hoping to meet some other new supporters there to learn more about the club’s history.
The EFL Cup tie against Sheffield Wednesday is such a great chance for us to test ourselves against higher-league opposition. I’m already arranging a group trip with 12 of my mates for that match – hoping we can pull off an upset and make it to the second round!
