AFC Wimbledon will be aiming to mark the club’s first home game of 2019 by taking three valuable points against Barnsley on Saturday and tickets are available for Dons supporters.
Wally Downes’s men have earned an FA Cup victory and a point at Coventry from the last two matches on the road, and tomorrow Wimbledon will be seeking to build on those results with a good performance at the Cherry Red Records Stadium (3.00 pm kick-off).
Promotion-chasers Barnsley are the opponents on Saturday and your support will be greatly appreciated as the Dons seek vital points in pursuit of League One survival.
Below is a summary of ticket availability and other key information ahead of Saturday’s game.

Matchday Ticket Scanning Information
We want to remind fans of the procedure should a red-light flash on the turnstile indicator when you scan your season ticket or ticket to enter the ground. One of our matchday stewards will direct you towards the ticket booth in the main foyer corridor, for further assistance. Please note this ticket booth is situated by the club’s trophy cabinet in the Paul Strank stand entrance. Here our ticket team can quickly resolve your issue and re-print your match ticket or season ticket if needed. See our previous article for more information.
