We are delighted to announce that tickets for our final pre-season friendly with Manchester United XI are now on sale.

The fixture will take place on Sunday 30^th of July at 2pm, just six days before the Vanarama National League season commences. This clash provides our fans with the perfect opportunity to get in the mood for the new season, as United will certainly offer a tough test to the Robins.

As is the case for those who have renewed or purchased a season ticket for the 23/24 campaign, season ticket holders gain free entry to all home friendlies. For those without a season ticket, entry is £10 for adults and £5 for concessions and U16’s so click here to buy them now.

In last season’s meeting, the Robins came away with a 2-1 victory, thanks to two late goals from Marcus Dinanga. Phil Parkinson and the squad will be aiming to repeat this feat and head into the season full of belief.

On United’s return this year, there may well be the opportunity to welcome back some familiar faces to The J.Davidson. Maxi Oyedele, Joe Hugill, Sonny Aljofree and Dermot Mee – who all spent time on loan with us last season – could all be involved in the encounter.

With plenty of Alty and United-supporting friends and families, this match will be unsegregated and we look forward to welcoming everybody for what promises to be another entertaining pre-season friendly.
