Ravens to now welcome Brackley Town this Friday night (5 July)
FC Isle of Man's first pre-season fixture has been moved forward by 24 hours.
The Manx club says its home tie at The Bowl against National League North side Brackley Town will now take place this Friday (5 July) at 6.30pm.
It had been due to take place on Saturday, 6 July - also at 6.30pm - but the change has been made to avoid a clash with England's UEFA Euro 2024 quarter-final match against Switzerland.
This week's tie is the first of a series of pre-season contests 'The Ravens' will have between now and the start of the season on 27 July.
Next Saturday (13 July) they will welcome NWCFL Division One North side Ashton Town before hosting a summer festival of football from 19-21 July which will also include Lancaster City, Radcliffe FC and Chester FC.
