DARLINGTON will start the new Vanarama National League North season with an away game at Salford City.
The Quakers will renew rivalries with Salford on Saturday, August 5, before playing back-to-back home games against Gainsborough Trinity and Alfreton Town.
August promises to be a busy month, featuring two local derbies against York City (August 15) and Spennymoor Town (August 28), with the first derby clash with Moors taking place at Blackwell Meadows on a Bank Holiday Monday.
Darlington are at home on Boxing Day, with Harrogate Town providing the opposition, with the reverse trip to Harrogate scheduled for New Year’s Day.
Quakers’ final home game sees them host Nuneaton Town on April 21, with the final game of the campaign taking them to Stockport County seven days later.
