BT Sport will be celebrating The National League’s 40th anniversary on August 17th, the weekend of the opening game week during the 1979/80 season. Barrow took on the green and whites that weekend, and the pair will do battle forty years on to mark the occasion.

As a result, the fixture in Cumbria will now kick-off at 5.20pm.

Darren Sarll’s side will make the 300-mile journey to the Furness Building Society Stadium for their fifth match of the campaign in the opening month with ticket and travel information to follow in due course.
