Tel Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Well done Karen, as stated, the rest will follow after the higher leagues post their fixture lists Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beano Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Presumably, the Spartan South Midlands League has fewer clubs in groundshares than the Combined Counties League, so Karen has been able to identify which grounds are available for "day one". Personally, I don't see the problem with waiting a little longer and then getting the full list in one hit, although I understand the logic in wanting to get the first set of matches out there.

Tel Posted July 6, 2014 Author Share Posted July 6, 2014 Beano, just as a matter of interest, how many ground share agreements do the C / C have. Locally we have a few but not sure of the rest. Locally ASHFORD and both BEDFONT's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smudge Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Bedfont Sports do not groundshare? The only problem with releasing fixtures is E&E at Chipstead.1 thing is for sure, 1 CCL Div 1 Club will be not be playing on the opening day,hopefully 1 of those that will not be playing in the FA Cup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Non League Nigel Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 I think the league will schedule opening day fixtures for div 1 clubs and give them a mid week too so they are prepared for the cup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beano Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 The groundshares I know of are: Ashford Town (Middlesex) - Staines Lammas Badshot Lea at Ash United Epsom & Ewell at Chipstead Hanworth Villa - Bedfont Green Horley Town - Dorking Mole Valley SCR at Cobham Bedfont & Feltham - CB Hounslow United Chessington & Hook United - Epsom Athletic Sheerwater with athletics, which restricts ground availability Worcester Park with cricket, which restricts ground availability On top of that, clubs may have requested fixtures "opposite" a local club in a higher-ranked competition (for instance, when I was on the Board/Committee at Ashford, we always asked for our home games to be opposite those of Staines Town). Westfield would presumably want their games to be opposite Woking's where possible and I'm sure there are other requests made by clubs that need to be taken into account. With all that in mind, the CCL fixtures can't be done until the higher Leagues release their fixtures. And, of course, Epsom & Ewell's fixtures have to be opposite those of Isthmian League Chipstead. In addition, I know that Lazarus has been on holiday. As understanding as she is, I think even Mrs Constable would draw the line at Alan taking the fixture lists with him on his annual break!

Smudge Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Are they expensive,Cup draws done out of a hat though? Does the generator have a memory?Always seems to me that CCL Clubs seem to play each other at the same time of year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big J R Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 I think it depends on which league, who the fixtures Secretary is, and what computer capabilities/programmes they run ! The days of 'balls in a basket' must be long gone !! Don't tell 'Sceptic Blatter' though !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smudge Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 No luckily First, the teams ground sharing must be taken into account the C / C has many it seems, so not quite as easy asA-B-C Not really ASATTGS,12 of the teams that share are CCL,so if 6 are at home,6 are away,Simples,if only E&E would share with a CCL Club things would be easier than ABC. Infact Bedfont and Feltham,CB Hounslow,Chessington and Hook,Epsom Athletic,Have an advantage over other CCL1 sides,as this year they will play 15 homes games,whilst the rest will ony play 14.
