ASKEY FUMING AT LACK OF CHRISTMAS CRACKER
Macclesfield boss John Askey has been left fuming by the Conference fixtures for next season.
"It's an absolute disgrace," said Askey.
"Everyone wants to do less travelling over Christmas and to play a local side to boost the gate.
Instead they are sending us to Grimsby on New Year's Day and also Bristol.
It's poor."
"I think the league has to look at how they do the fixtures."
Alty boss Lee Sinnott wasn't happy either, although the Robins do face their other Cheshire rivals, Chester FC on Boxing Day.
"We're allowed to request which opponents we'd like over Christmas but we didn't get one of them at all," he said.
