That leaves 3 dates left for are other away game. I dont think we have much option other than the above and the only flexibility will be when we have our double header away game. Do we have it in the 1st part of the campaign, In June mid campaign or at the end of the campaign. I can't see us having a home game to finish as we are 3rd seeds and we cant have home games in Sept or June so that rules out six dates so the 5 away dates need to be fitted into 7 possible dates.
We should arrange the Italy home game for the 28/03/09..... seeing as we always play better in March
the 3rd of september is on a wednesday...its unusual for a campaign to start mid week!!
away game 2?Quote:

No real need, I think. It's only blanks at the moment; when concrete dates are set, I'll change the away game titles, and sure people can't plan anything (home or away) until the dates are set anyway.Quote:

totally agree...it is handy to know the dates now as you say.. people will now book their holidays around them irrespective of being home or away..Quote:

....the fixtures meeting, booking a cheap flight to Italy will be a gamble, due to their rotation system for home games.Rome Milan , Naples Palermo, take your pick and you could still be wrong.Anyone with some knowledge of the likely venue?
Personally I am just going to book a cheap flight into Italy anywhere and worry about getting to the match venue when the ground is confirmedQuote:

Yeah, was looking at a map of Italy last night and I think i'll do that myself so I can get it sorted early and out of the way.Quote:

Except for when it took me eight hours to get from Rimini to Rome because the connecting train was two hours late and we lost another hour en route. :(Quote:
