Macclesfield manager Keith Alexander has died at the age of 53.
Alexander, who recently took time off due to illness, passed away after arriving home on Tuesday night from Macclesfield's League Two match at Notts County.
"It is our sad duty to report that Keith Alexander passed away today after arriving home from Macclesfield Town's game at Notts County last night," said a statement from the club.
"Keith was a splendid man. He will be sorely missed at the Moss Rose and by everyone involved in football.
"Our thoughts and sympathies are with his family at this very difficult time."
Hereford United are due to play Macclesfield on Saturday. Keith Alexander's family will be consulted before the game goes ahead, with Macclesfield chairman Mike Rance telling the BBC:
"Graham [Turner] also knew Keith very well and the decision as to whether Saturday's game goes ahead will be taken by Keith's family shortly. I know what Keith would have wanted, but it will be his family's decision."
