Altrincham's pre-season friendly with Macclesfield has been put back 24 hours from Tuesday July 25th to Wednesday July 26th, with the kick-off remaining the same at 7.45pm.

The change was made at Alty's request to provide a better balance between the games either side of the short trip to Moss Rose, with the Robins travelling to Holland to face NEC Nijmegen on Saturday July 22nd and then taking on Manchester United under-21s at The J.Davidson Stadium the following Sunday.

It was felt that the extra 24 hours would provide important additional recovery time for the players after the journey back from Holland, and the club are grateful to Macclesfield for their understanding and cooperation in granting our request.

The rest of our pre-season fixture schedule remains unaffected.
