Further to the passing of devoted Macclesfield Town supporter Alan Boothby last week, the club has been informed of arrangements regarding his funeral.

A private ceremony will be held at Macclesfield Crematorium at 11:20am on Thursday 6th August, where close family and friends will gather to celebrate Alan's life.

Prior to this, Alan will make his final journey to the Moss Rose at around 10:45am and the Silkmen would like to offer all supporters the chance to pay their respects to him.

Whilst observing social distancing regulations, the club would like to extend an open invitation to join them, as they remember a man who will forever remain one of the club's own.

Further details will be announced by the club in due course.
