Macclesfield FC secured a 3-1 victory over Leamington at the Leasing.com Stadium in Macclesfield, Cheshire, on 10 February 2026, claiming three points in an Enterprise National League North fixture.

The Silkmen scored twice in the first half and added a late third, with Leamington replying with a consolation goal. Around 3,500 supporters attended the match.

Manager John Rooney posted post-match comments on the club’s Silkmen TV channel following the win. Leamington were without long-serving manager Paul Holleran, who had tendered his resignation in early January; the club appointed interim arrangements for the first team in the weeks that followed.

The result continues a strong run for the phoenix club. Macclesfield FC was formed in 2020 after the previous club was wound up and has since earned multiple promotions, winning the Northern Premier League Premier Division in 2024/25 to reach the National League North for the 2025/26 season. Local interest in the club remains high as supporters follow its progress and potential future push toward the Football League.
