Crewe will travel to the Weaver Stadium on Sunday 13th July

Crewe Alexandra will visit the Weaver Stadium on Sunday 13th July for the traditional pre-season friendly fixture with local neighbours Nantwich Town.

And the day will be capped by the World Cup Final with fans being invited to stay on to watch the game on the big screens in the bar.  Further sparkle will be added to the match as Nantwich celebrate their 130th anniversary since being founded in 1884. A stunning last-day victory over Preston assured Crewe's survival in League 1 and former Dabbers boss Steve Davis will bring his Alex heroes to Nantwich for what will be a great occasion.

It should be a fantastic curtain-raiser to the 2014/15 season."  We very much look forward to welcoming the players, Directors, officials and supporters of Crewe Alexandra to the Weaver Stadium on Sunday 13th July.  "All at Nantwich Town send congratulations to John Bowler and everyone at The Alex. "Steve, his staff and players have all done fantastically well to ensure that Crewe kept their League 1 status," said Chairman Jon Gold.
