Wharfedale Foresters' pre-season home match against North Ribblesdale has been brought forward 24 hours to tonight (7.30) to enable the visitors to field their strongest side.
The mathematics are simple - whatever points Macclesfield gather from their match at home to Fylde on Saturday, Wharfedale need one more to finish above them and avoid relegation from SSE National League One.
There is yet another huge match for Wharfedale this Saturday as the SSE National League One season runs down.
Macclesfield coach Geoff Wappett remarked to his players after their SSE National League One defeat at The Avenue last week: “It’s not over by any stretch of the imagination . . . it’s a question of not throwing in the towel right up to the very last moment of the season.”
In terms of who joins Cambridge and Sedgley Park in the departure lounge from SSE National League One, a mathematician will tell you that tomorrow's match between Wharfedale and Macclesfield will decide nothing.
Wharfedale get back into action on Saturday after a two-week lay-off due to poor weather.
