Walshaw is Darlington's new number ten
Darlington striker James Walshaw is the club's new number ten, taking the shirt from FA Trophy final hero Chris Senior.[LNB] Senior wore number ten during his solitary season with Quakers which culminated in him nabbing late winner at Wembley in May, but he has since joined Alfreton Town.[LNB] Walshaw is one of four new recruits having signed from Guiseley where he scored 32 goals last season.[LNB] Of the other new arrivals, midfielder Kris Taylor has taken number eight, vacated by Gareth Waite, while centre-back Graeme Lee is 18 and winger Adam Rundle is 20.[LNB] There is currently no number one as keeper Sam Russell has opted to stick with 23, the same number he also wore during his previous spell with the club.[LNB] Meanwhile, supporters are urged to purchase their tickets for Friday's pre-season friendly with Newcastle in advance of the game as a large attendance is expected.[LNB] The Magpies have sold 3,600 tickets for the match at The Northern Echo Arena while Quakers have sold 1,000.[LNB] We're expecting a huge walk-up on the night so it promises to be a big crowd, said Darlington general manager Alan Murray.[LNB] We're strongly advising fans of both teams to buy tickets in advance where necessary, or if they're buying on the night to get here in good time.[LNB] The kick-off will not be moved in any circumstances, so those who do leave it to the last minute risk missing the start of the game.[LNB] The game starts at 7.45pm.[LNB] Quakers season ticket holders can buy tickets for all three pre-season friendlies against Newcastle, Middlesbrough and Sunderland for the price of two, as long as they are purchased by 4pm on Friday.[LNB] Admission for each game is £10 adults and £5 concessions, but fans with a 2011-12 season ticket can buy one ticket for all three for £20 (£10 concessions).[LNB] Quakers fans can buy tickets from the main reception at the Arena.[LNB] Darlington fans wishing to buy tickets on the evening of game should use the relevant ticket offices (i.e. West Stand tickets will only be sold from West Stand ticket office and South Stand tickets will only be sold from South Stand ticket office) all ticket sales will be cash only.[LNB] Newcasle fans will be able to buy tickets on the evening from the visitors ticket office (East Stand) from 6.30pm, cash only.[LNB] Fans are reminded seasonal parking passes are not valid for the pre-season friendlies.[LNB] Squad list: 2 Paul Arnison; 3 Aaron Brown; 4 Jamie Chandler; 5 Greg Taylor; 6 Ian Miller; 7 Liam Hatch; 8 Kris Taylor; 9 Tommy Wright; 10 James Walshaw; 11 John Campbell; 15 Phil Gray; 16 John McReady; 17 Michael Smith; 18 Graeme Lee; 20 Adam Rundle; 21 Adam Quinn; 23 Sam Russell; 31 Marc Bridge-Wilkinson[LNB]
