So who's playing who and when?
AFC Telford start the season with an away game against Stalybridge Celtic, this looks like it has the potential to be a very exciting game. We then follow this up with home games against Hinckley United and Blyth Spartans. Though the latter is the same day as I go on holiday (to Cornwall) and I would be pushing my luck to ask to see the game before heading off.
Christmas fixtures we have Stafford Rangers this year. We're away on Boxing Day and at home on New Years day. Our last away game is very tough looking tie at Southport, followed by finishing the season with a home game against Tamworth.
Does work out well for me though that some long distance away matches (Gateshead, Harrogate) are before I go off to University (grade permitting) so don't have to worry about whether or not I should go whilst at Uni. Same then happens with Blyth Spartans away on the 3rd of January.

I don't think our fixtures are out yet. However we do have a friendly (yeah, right!) against Stalybridge a fortnight on Saturday.

Home to Burton for starters.
Quite pleased with how our fixtures have panned out. First saturday away day is a trip to Lewes, so will be rolling off the train nice and early to get stuck into the Harveys at opening time.
Bank holiday's are fairly decent - down to Torquay for August Bank Holiday (was a tuesday night last year) and Oxford for New Years Day.
Got our York weekender quite early on, but the two other big treks we're looking forward to, Barrow and Wrexham, are next year.

Fancy a pint? Will be partaking of a few! Haven't planned our trains in and out yet but we'll be getting down early and making a day of it. Couple of nice little pubs up a back street near the quay that we went to last season. |

The fixtures are out and don't i know it! It's tinpot-terror for me with so many fellow TT'ers with me in Conference North following a poor SRFC side which must be odds-on for back-to-back demotions.
Mid August to mid September look particularly brutal. First i'll get done over by the 'muff crowd on Aug 23rd with Mr Ojive and his bogey team waiting right behind them on Bank Holiday monday. Just as i haul myself, battered and blooded, back onto the ropes, Gatesheadloy (ex Pyramid Portal) will chop me into little pieces on Sept 6th with Samd coming down to jump on those pieces the following week. A low-blow from Frankeigth on my Mother's birthday will follow a month later just to keep the pain going before the dose of double-Giggy over yuletide. Frankeigth will then step in after Giggy's finished. The first DJ duffing comes in February and then he will join in with early season mob as they repeat/ finish in April what they started back in August.
The piece de resistance will come as we are replaced in Connie Norf by ifrigginrule's revatalised Hednescum.
My Mom used to say "You can get your bones ready!" when she was about to give me a smack. It's advice i need to follow now as i will have to be graciuous in defeat to all these people and, genuinely, wish them well from the depths of humiliation.
As the evil one said. Football! Bloody Hell!

Unfortunately I won't be there as I'm breaking my 'I haven't missed a home game in ten years' record by swanning off to practise my Eyetalian somewhere in Umbria for the last two weeks in August. I would have bought you a pint at Damson Park, as I have the other tinpotters that I've met, but I guess it'll have to wait until the return on Easter Monday.  |

We're too tinpot to have any fixtures yet I'm surprised we're not playing Eastleigh after we practically nicked their entire staff ;D Speaking of Eastleigh- why is your 19th wedding anniversary anything to cry about, Mr Eastleigh? I'd be happy if any bugger wanted to marry me, let alone spend 19 years with me! |

Ryman fixtures are out.
Sutton away to Harlow first off.
Jammy whatsits away to Ramsgutter on a Saturday (albeit in December). We always ended up away to them on a cold and wet winter evening. NOT a pleasant place to be at the best of times.
