Join Us.
Recent weeks have seen the Supporters Cooperative focus a large part of their activity around attracting new members to the organisation, during which time excellent initiatives such as `Get Your Photo Taken with the Trophy` event, have attracted a 10% increase in members ,as well as giving a group of fans something of value to point proudly to in future years.
A further photo session is planned.
An essential part of our thinking going forward on membership centres around the need to attract younger County supporters into our ranks, and we announced some weeks ago, the launch of our 16-25 membership category with an attractive £3 per year subscription, along with our intention to consider creating a place on the Cooperative board for that 16-25 year old category.
We are serious on this matter and we think that younger County fans , as well as being a great asset on matchdays with their loud support, are serious about County too, and we know that they will have issues to sort which we can help them resolve, and if ultimately we create that dedicated position on the board, they will be in a position to raise their concerns not only to the Cooperative board but to the Club.
Notwithstanding the above, we have moved also to initiate an ` Away Ticket Priority Scheme` , a members benefit negotiated with the Club to allow for members to have priority access to away tickets after season ticket holders.
Members must 'opt in' to enable the Co-operative to share their membership data with County by selecting preferences via their account at

New Members: Tick the Stockport County box on the sign-up screen.
We are determined that the voice of County fans is heard, join us and help make it louder!

Make Us An Offer- Update.
Our current effort involves a match worn shirt from season 98-99 worn and signed by James Gannon, and the top offer thus far stands at £150 .
The shirt is sized XL, in very good condition, and has an unusual V in the centre of the collar, presumed to be following a small tear, caused at some point when James was playing ( probably as he swung late to the back post to head the ball home).
There is no appearance of tear or rip in evidence following a very serviceable repair effected at some point, by someone- a third photo of the V area is included here to verify our comments.
Closing date remains noon on Wednesday 27 November, and offers should be sent to hedgegrower@gmail.com
Proceeds shared equally between the Cooperative`s Guardian Account and SCAN.
Upcoming………….. Supporters Cooperative board members will be contactable in the cabin before all future games ( Saturday and Tuesday evening before every game Saturday- 1.30 -2.30/ Tuesday- 6.20 – 7.20) We have our usual rack of interesting County shirts ( at £10), and also half a dozen very serviceable XL top coats at £15, and some track suit tops and bottoms at a tenner. We will also be handing out the remainder of the Football Calendars at no charge, so give us a visit.
Remember all the proceeds from every item we sell goes to the Guardian Account .
And…..we will also be making an appeal in support of the Wellspring, as usual this will be focussed on the Cabin where you can support Stockport`s magnificent homeless charity by dropping off your donated items , on Sunday 22 December immediately before and during the Xmas Carol Concert at EP. Donated items can be left also ,at the above times, on match days. The Wellspring are looking for donations of food, warm clothing and cash would be immensely useful also.
