Fine for not playing the kids - 3-4k
Fine for not turning up - 5k
Not much of an intensive to play if you ask me... and it will only be know by 4pm!
Town will lose out financially over this if its off late. They are supposed to get that 5k from from Macc, but if its hurtling into the abyss for them we dont ever see that money!

I assume we get the £10k win bonus if Macclesfield forfeit the game? That seems only right and proper...not holding my breath mind 😕

You would hope so, but still... we would just be using some of that to cover the losses.... shabby all around if its a very late call off.... there will be some committed town fans already on the way at 4pm!

Why on earth were they allowed to take up a position in the EFL a couple of years ago if they were financially unstable? Could the EFL answer that? If their ground wasnt up to the required standard they wouldnt have been allowed, so why is it that such restructions dont apply to their financial standard?

According to a Radio Manchester reporter on Twitter the insurance premiums have been paid, and the MTFC squad have returned to training in preparation for the game tomorrow.

So at the moment it is game on and the town supporter who wants to go can now make plans and MPM Catering can get a pie delivered to the ground.

Must admit I'm half tempted to go to this now, just to see what kind of farce it turns into.
Doubtlessly we'll struggle past the same team that lost 0 4 to Kingstonian 1 0 or draw 0 0. Has Sam been talking them up, getting his excuses in early yet?

Has Sam been talking them up, getting his excuses in early yet? Yes, on Radio Shropshire, something along the lines of "You don't know what to train/plan for".

Makes a change from the usual "it will be really tough as they were a championship side (that got relegated because they werent good enough to be up there) so they will be difficult to beat". These were a National league team till recently so no doubt it will still be tough as they were used to winning games.

Port Vale won last night so we can't top the group. Win tonight and we will be away next round.

Apparently according to the Macclesfield fans forum the club is up for sale for £1 to anyone who can prove they can finance the club. Please form an orderly line at the main gate tonight to meet the Macclesfield Chairman with your pound coins. Big decisions to be made tonight. Buy a pie or a football club.

You will need to also bring a copy of a bank statement.

Either could have repercussions later. And why do you need a bank statement to buy a pie? Suppose they are a bit pricey tho'.

Well they’d better look very closely at what happened to Bury when it was sold for a pound.

Town -2 handicap @ 6/4 tonight. Think I'll have a score after last night's in-play success (Thanks Vale!)

So Macclesfield have to play the majority of players who played in their last competitive game, or last league game?
Or face a fine.. which wouldn’t be a good idea

Got 4/1 on Town to score four or more and 8/13 just to win last week. Obviously neither available now...

So Macclesfield have to play the majority of players who played in their last competitive game, or last league game? Or face a fine.. which wouldn’t be a good idea 7 Players 7.1 In all rounds of the Competition a player shall be a “registered player” of his Club. 7.2 For the EFL Clubs, a registered player is one who: 7.2.1 would be registered and eligible to participate in a match in the League Competition for that EFL Club commencing at the same time and on the same date as the Match in accordance with the provisions of the Regulations; or 7.2.2 would be so eligible but for the fact that they are registered on a Long Term Loan at a club playing in the National League (National Division, North Division or South Division) but by the agreement of the Club, the National League club and the Player he has permission to return to play in this Competition. 7.3 Each EFL Club shall play its Full Available Strength in and during all Matches. Full Available Strength means the EFL Club must include at least four Qualifying Players in the ten outfield Players named in the starting eleven on the Team Sheet. 7.4 Qualifying Player means any Player who: 7.4.1 had started the immediately preceding First Team Fixture (as defined below); 7.4.2 subsequently starts the immediately following First Team Fixture; 7.4.3 is in the list of ten Players at the Club with the highest number of starting appearances in First Team Fixtures in the same Season; 7.4.4 has made forty or more starting appearances in First Team Fixtures or international equivalents (and not limited to the same Club or Season); or 7.4.5 is on standard loan from a Premier League Club or any EFL Club operating a Category One Academy. 7.5 First Team Fixture means the League Competition, Premier League, EFL Cup or FA Challenge Cup (but shall, in the context of Rules 7.4.3 and 7.4.4 only, also include this Competition). 7.6 Any EFL Club failing to meet the requirement to play Full Available Strength will be required to pay a fine of up to £5,000.

So if they’ve been paid, chances are they’ll be at full strength as they’ll play on Saturday
