York City will travel to Altrincham next Tuesday evening after the original game was postponed earlier this week.

“I’m really pleased to get the match rearranged for next Tuesday," boss Martin Foyle told The Press.

"I didn’t want four midweek games on the road grouped together as people don’t realise how much the travelling can take out of the players.

“Some of the north-east boys don’t get back home until 4am sometimes and that’s very tiring. I wanted to play the game, but at least we can now prepare for Stoke knowing that game will definitely be on.”
