The Robins are back at The J.Davidson Stadium this Saturday on the hunt for a third Enterprise National League win in a row against visitors Brackley Town. 

We will be marking Remembrance Day ahead of kick-off with our friends from Trafford Veterans, and don't forget, the game will be starting at the slightly later time of 3:03pm as part of the National League's 3UP Day of Action.

The Opposition

Gavin Cowan's Saints make the 131 mile trip from Northamptonshire to The J.Davidson Stadium this weekend sat just one place below Alty in 16th.

The 2024/25 National League North Champions have gained some impressive wins so far in 2025/26, most notably beating EFL League Two side Notts County in the Emirates FA Cup first round earlier in November.

Hear It From The Gaffer

“The ideas we’re putting across to the group have been taken on board by the players fully… there has been a lot of games and a lot of travel in the last three weeks, so we’ll regroup, we’ll recover and we’ll be ready for Brackley on Saturday.”

Matchday at The J.Davidson Stadium

We ask all supporters to be inside The J.Davidson Stadium in plenty of time to join us for our Remembrance Day ceremony ahead of kick-off - from 2:50pm onwards.

Along with military drummers and flag bearers accompanying the teams onto the pitch, the Ode to Remembrance will be read out over the PA, followed by the playing of The Last Post by bugler Ian Elliott. Then, on referee Greg Rollason’s whistle, will shall observe a minute’s silence before the match begins at 3:03pm.

Turnstiles open at 1:30pm, with the Fan Zone, CSH Bar and Club Shop all welcoming home supporters from when gates open to beyond the full-time whistle.

We'll have live music in the Fan Zone pre-game from Arieh Temkin (alongside Fan Zone regular Solly Temkin), before the brothers play in Manchester in the evening as part of Arieh's How Far Flown album tour.

Security on Matchdays

Working closely with our stewarding team, and in consultation with Greater Manchester Police, we are carrying out screening procedures to prevent potential weapons or prohibited items from entering the ground. These checks are now becoming common practice at football stadiums across the country and are part of our shared responsibility to protect each other.

The introduction of Martyn’s Law (Terrorism Protection of Premises Act 2025) has also placed greater emphasis on the legal duty of venues like ours to assess risks and have robust safety plans in place. While much of this reflects what we already do, it reinforces the need for vigilance and preparation in today’s world.

We completely understand that supporters may sometimes feel these checks go too far. However, we want to be clear: safety will always come first. Our goal is to provide the best possible matchday experience in a safe and welcoming environment for all.

On behalf of the club, thank you for your patience, understanding, and continued support as we put these important measures into practice.
