MATLOCK TEST UP NEXT AHEAD OF BIG OSSETT OPENER AT STOKE LANE.

Carlton Town played out a 3-3 draw in an entertaining friendly with Dunkirk last week and now have only one friendly left ahead of the new season and the big and highly anticipated opener with Ossett United.

That friendly is a tough one indeed and it is Derbyshire Premier league neighbours Matlock Town who are the visitors to Stoke Lane on Saturday 3pm. Admission prices will remain at £5 for all adults for this game and £1 for under 16s in line with the other friendlies this summer.

The Ossett game on Saturday 13th August has now sold out all five sponsorship packages as Boatsy hits the ground running ahead of the new season and with Nottingham Forest legend Colin Barrett comfirmed as the club’s very special opening day guest.

Tommy and Mark will no doubt be firming up their starting line up during the Matlock friendly for the Ossett game, as excitement builds ahead of the new season!
