A new coach service will take Macclesfield residents to Premier League games.

Manchester City FC have just announced a new coach for ticket holders to hop on from Macclesfield to the Etihad Stadium.

There will be two coaches trialled this weekend.

One will set off at 12:15pm, one at 13:15pm. You can get on the bus if you have a ticket for this Saturday's game against Chelsea.

Manchester City's website claims it will set off from Sunderland Street, but it also states that it will leave opposite Macclesfield Railway Station, so locals would presume it actually means Waters Green.

Macclesfield Manchester City Supporters Club have been contacted for comment.

A local spokesman said: "We think it's a fantastic initiative and really hope that local blues take full advantage this weekend."

"As a branch we have plans for Sunday already, however if the trial is continued early next season or based on Sunday they put it in place permanently, we would actively encourage our members to use it as often as they can!

"The club have many forums for them to hear fans and take on feedback and it's great to see when action is taken on the back of this that really does benefit the core supporters!"
