It isn't that I was aware of but watch this space now ?

Hello Joe,
Thank you for your kind comment, it will be a DCFC U21 team and maybe one or two first teamers who need a run out, we always try to play the Rams in preseason and its usually one of our first games but securing the safety of your club that plays a big part in the Derbyshire football landscape as a whole took priority as it should.
We "blew" promotion by not having the spending clout of other teams at that level, we aren't bank rolled and our staff is 90% volunteers who work full time hours in our community. Our income is simply what we make on matchdays and through sponsors but costs are rising and it is a constant battle to stay above water.
We were unable to field a team against Alfreton Town due to a mix of injuries, player holidays and work commitments. Most of our lads work a nine to five and so they use their work holidays throughout the season, it was unfournate but these things happen.
I hope you enjoy the opening game of the Rams season and thank you for your comment.

Hello friends,
I hope this thread finds you all well on this warm Sunday afternoon.
As a club, we were strong supporters of the "Save Derby County" campaign as we strongly believe no fan base or community should have to face losing their football team and we were overjoyed when our friends at Clowes UK came to the rescue. Clowes UK sponsor Matlock Town including our away strip so it's fantastic to all be part of the same football family.
To celebrate the continued links, The Proctor Cars Stadium will be hosting Derby County on Friday 29th July with a 7:45pm kick off. It promises to be a fantastic evening of celebrations as the Gladiators will wear our Clowes UK away strip for the first time ever, the Clowes UK Cup will be up for grabs and they will be in attendance and we get to celebrate together the saving and hopefully thriving existence of the club you all love.
Tickets are available now via the following link - https://matlocktownfc.ktckts.com/event/mtl2223hpre3/matlock-town-v-derby-county-u-21s
We are hoping for 2300 sell out which we believe can be made possible by two fantastic fan bases. We were encouraged by Rams fans on Twitter to add a donation ticket option for those who want to help us out but are unable to attend for one reason or another.
As a community based non league team which doesn’t have a wealthy owner we rely solely on our community to fund the club whether through gate receipts, sponsorship or donations. Any donations would be greatly appreciated. 
Thank you to all who took the time to read this post and we hope to see you this coming Friday.

I have a soft spot for Matlock Town. I grew up in Matlock and went to a lot of matches back in the day.
I bought a couple of the donation tickets the other day when I saw the link to them on Twitter.
Good luck for the coming season ?

Can't get to the game but just bought some donation tickets. I well remember Matlock Town standing with us when things looked bleak & it won't be forgotten. I hope there's a full house & you get to make a few grand out of Friday.
Good luck for the season - its a division I'll be keeping an eye on with FC United, South Shields (managed by ex-DCFC coach Kevin Phillips), Liversedge & Marske Utd all there (the latter two beat my mate's team Cleethorpes to promotion last season). Hopefully you can build on last year's 4th place & join Buxton in National League North ??
