Director of Football Robbie Savage told https://macclesfieldfc.com: “I would like to wish Neil all the best with the opportunity that has arisen at Tranmere, a Club he played 18 games for during his playing career, on a full time basis at the Football League Club. “We believe we have given Neil an amazing opportunity to kickstart his career in coaching at Macclesfield, already a side of sizeable stature in non-League, which he has handled impressively and bodes well for the future. “Dannzy is someone we would rather not lose, both as a player and Head Coach but ultimately, this was his decision.

Our current model we have implemented allows the transition to be seamless as Duffs who was very influential in the 23 game unbeaten run, takes over the reins. Particularly as his existing, familiar role directing from the dugout whilst Dannzy’s playing contributions continued. “Regardless, I would like to thank Dannzy for everything he has done for us and wish him every success for years to come”.
