After Friday's glorious nostalgia-fest, it's back to the bread-and-butter friendlies - and, in Buxton, yet another club with whom County have pre-season 'previous'.
Can we keep this month's unbeaten run going? Will the evening temperature in deepest SK17 drop below freezing? And will Captain Milligan have returned from his holidays?!
Post all your notes and queries here...

Evening, all - from an unbelievably warm and summery Buxton. Feel rather daft having brought a hat, an overcoat and gloves along with me, now... although just wait until the sun goes down! Team details and updates to follow. Cheers, Macc

First goal to be conceded by County this pre-season, as a Buxton through-ball splits the defence, and the hosts' striker holds off Gregson to slot home.

Half-time, and still 1-0 Buxton. County have looked rather lightweight up front, where the two trialists are getting muscled off the ball rather too easily. Missing Milligan in midfield, too - hopefully, he will be back from his holidays soon...!

Second half begins, with County looking more fetching in their white shirts than the original photos on COWS suggested they would be! Substitutions galore, with Churchman, Dennis, Duxbury, Hurst (not previously announced as playing), Lazenbury and Spencer on for Ormson, Fagbola, Moses, Baker, Lofthouse and Murray. Now, where's my Motty sheepskin coat...?!

And, almost immediately, County counter-attack to make it 1-1. Good work down the left flank by Spencer, before Dennis converts from close range at the second attempt.
