Ian is a UCL official, so I would think his information is accurate.

I guess they're waiting until after the Vase games at the weekend? I think 6 UCL clubs are still involved, so the secretary doesn't want to have to sharpen his pencil or dust off his abacus more than once - of course it could be they're just having trouble getting the balls into the bingo machine ;)

I'm just impatient !! :)

You can bet your life when they release the fixtures then there will some clubs playing 4-5 fixtures at home in the month followed by the same amount away from home during February.

Is there another league in the country that doesn't issue a full season's fixtures in July?

I am sure there must be.
But don't worry. It wont be a problem for us from next season, as we will be in the Southern League.

Like Pigman I am anxious to avoid certain dates in January. I know I will not be able to get to a game on 24th Jan......when we will probably play Huntingdon or Holbeach!!!!

Do other leagues at this level not do that? I thought some did tbh.

I definitely can't make whatever games we have on 30th Jan and 21st March so i'm keen to find those ones out. Hopefully not Holbeach away!

Are we planning to play on Friday nights now? (Jan 30th)

To be fair the league did give us the fixtures from Sept to Xmas, when it was always going to be very difficult with FA Cup and Vase fixtures to be taken into account.
Now only 6 teams are involved in the Vase, so we can surely expect remainder of fixtures very soon.
It must be a nightmare for our commercial team to get match sponsors, not knowing when we have home games.
