United set for Droylsden first day trip

The seasonal curtain-raiser will take place at the Butchers Arms on Saturday August 18.

This is followed by successive home fixtures against Histon and Hinckley United, before an August Bank Holiday Monday trip to Bishop’s Stortford.

The festive period comprises fixtures against Corby Town — home on Boxing Day and away on New Year’s Day.

Local derby fixtures against Gainsborough Trinity take place on Tuesday October 2 at The Jakemans Stadium and Saturday February 2 at The Northolme.

In addition to the home fixtures against Histon and Gainsborough, United’s other midweek home fixture is against Altrincham on Tuesday February 26.

The Pilgrims will travel to Oxford City and Stalybridge Celtic in midweek — on Tuesday September 4 and Tuesday October 30 respectively.
