  Addressing the issue on X, Wrexham wrote, "In response to Accrington Stanley's decision to increase the matchday price by £5 from that previously charged at Wham Stadium for league games this season, we have decided to reduce the price of matchday tickets by £5 for the return game at the Racecourse on 02/03/2023."
