HOLYHEAD Hotspur get their Huws Gray Alliance campaign underway with a difficult trip to Flint Town United.

The Holy Islanders begin their new era on Saturday, August 11 with a visit to the Silkmen, who have invested heavily in their squad as they look to mount a title challenge under manager Niall McGuinness.

Their first game at The New Stadium sees Darren Garmey’s men welcome Gresford Athletic on August 18, and Spurs also take on the newly promoted duo of Conwy Borough and Buckley Town during the early stages of the campaign.

Title favourites Bangor City are on the agenda on August 31 and January 18, while they welcome the Tangerines on Boxing Day for a game that is expected to draw a large crowd.

Garmey’s men begin their run-in with a visit to Holywell Town, before closing out the campaign at home to Airbus Broughton and away at Ruthin Town.

Two more prominent fixtures for the diary are against championship contenders Rhyl, who travel to Anglesey on March 8 and welcome Spurs to the Belle Vue Stadium on October 26.
