Darlington face some tough challengers throughout the pre-season. On 3 occasion, Darlington will get a run-out against higher-level opposition, just what they need to, hopefully, kick-start a promotion-winning campaign.

Who Darlington will face in pre-season has now been revealed.

The Quakers will face:

Harrogate Town (A)
Blyth Spartans (A)
Barrow (A)
Seaham Red Star (A)
Leeds United (H)
Middlesbrough (H)
Bishop Auckland (A)
Bradford City (H)

...respectively.

Not many surprise fixtures, although it is always nice to be able to face teams like Middlesbrough and Leeds, particularly at home.

Once again, the pre-season will allow fans to get an early indication of how the squad is developing and what the new signings are like.

The countdown starts here!
