Don't know how many have realized but if we are successful in the FA TROPHY we would go from 2nd January until 14th February with no home league games and in that period our fixtures would be after Torquay at home on 2nd January Nuneaton Away Woking A Dartford A Grimsby A
Looking further into this if the draws went against us and we were drawn away in every round then fixture list could look like this!! 13 Dec FA TROPHY 1 Away 20 Dec Gateshead H 26 Dec Torquay A 28 Dec Macclesfield H Jan 1 Torquay H 4 Jan Nuneaton A 10 Jan FA TROPHY 2 Away 17 Jan Woking A 24 Jan FA TROPHY 3 Away 31 Jan Dartford A 7 Feb FA TROPHY 4 Away 14 Feb Grimsby A 21 Feb SF TROPHY First Leg A 28 Feb SF TROPHY Second leg H This could in a worse case scenario (or should I say BEST scenario as we would be in the Final) 8 away matches on the trot!!!!
Of course if we were very very successful and reached the 3rd Round of the FA Cup then the Torquay Home game would be cancelled and we could be drawn away again making a possible 9 away games on a trot!!!
Lets hope the draws go our way!!!!

Not the greatest at all, bit better on the wallet if you don't travel though.
That's a run of games over Christmas that could go a long way to deciding how we do in the league, and good to see that 3 of the 4 are at home.
20 Dec Gateshead H 26 Dec Torquay A 28 Dec Macclesfield H Jan 1 Torquay H

Lets hope the draws go our way!!!! That would surely be a record. I've noticed that we could go from October 18th to November 15th without a home game, which I thought was bad until I saw your list. There are some oddities in this league's fixtures - such as playing both the Torquay fixtures, home and away, with just one game between them. Also, our second game against FGR is coming up, although there are plenty of teams we haven't played yet. I wonder if the fixtures are just drawn at random, maybe using the lottery machine.

We play Welling home and away on consecutive Saturdays too (away at Wrexham on the Tuesday in between)

Anyone Know why all our F.A Trophy games are away. Because SteveK marked them as away games to indicate a worse case scenario should all the ties go against us when they are picked.
