Scunthorpe planning for sell-outs

Scunthorpe United

Scunthorpe United general manager Jamie Hammond has said he expects nearly half of the Championship games at Glanford Park to be sold out next season.

The most eagerly awaited of them is the midweek meeting with Newcastle United on 20 October.

"Nigel [Adkins, manager] and the team love a midweek game and a sell-out crowd. It's going to be fantastic," Hammond told BBC Radio Humberside

"I think we'll have towards ten sell out gates this season."

After being promoted from League One via the play-offs, Scunthorpe begin life back in the Championship away at Cardiff on Saturday, 8 August.
