Brian Little's Tranmere will visit the Meadow
The club have also announced a game against Tranmere, who could also be promoted to the county's second tier.

There are also away matches to a variety of tricky destinations. Town visit Conference North champions Southport and Welsh winners TNS. There is also the long trip to Canvey Island, who cemented their place in the Conference this year, after last season's promotion.

And of course there is the statutory clash with rivals AFC Telford, which takes palce at the Meadow.

Boss Gary Peters said he was pleased with the mix of ties, and revelaed that the club were late in agreeing the fixtures due to the uncertainty over Town's future in League Two.

The games are:
Stoke City (H) - Friday 15th July - 7:45pm
Southport (A) - Tuesday 19th July - 7:45pm
Tranmere Rovers (H) - Saturday 23rd July - 3:00pm
Canvey Island (A) - Tuesday 26th July - 7:30pm
AFC Telford (H) - Friday 29th July - 7:45pm
TNS (A) - Monday August 1st- 7:30pm
