The Cod Army pipped Witton Albion to the Unibond League, Premier Division title last season and will be keen to get off to a flying start against The Yellows. Led by Tony Greenwood, they play at the 3,497 capacity Highbury Stadium.

Town will follow that game with two home clashes against Gainsborough Trinity and former boss Steve Burr's Stalybridge Celtic.

In a tough first month, they will also face bookies' promotion candidates Harrogate Town and relegated Blue Square Premier side Droylsden (Aug 25).

The annual 'Tinsel Town' derbies against Alfreton Town are at the Impact Arena on Boxing Day and at Watnall Road on New Year's Day.

Hucknall round up their season against another promoted side, Gateshead, on April 25.
