Admission prices have been set at £8 for Adults & £5 for Under 16s and Concessions. Admission will be ‘pay at the gate’ on the night although advance tickets may be available before the game.

Some disquiet has been expressed that the final is not being played at a Football League venue but due to various other commitments and issues outside the control of all parties both Chesterfield FC & Derby County were unable to offer their stadia for the match within the regular playing season.

In the acknowledged unavailability of the preferred stadia, the competing clubs agreed that Ilkeston FC was the only alternative viable option to host the final and we thank them for agreeing to stage the match.
