Is it June yet?

The first important milestone of the new season is tomorrow - it's Retained List day! Based on previous experience you can be sure there will be much gnashing of teeth on here over players who we think should/should not have been retained, together with a few mysteries thrown in too!

We assume that tomorrow is Retained List day...

We'll probably find the announcement at the start of the month was the retained list. The teasers

I see the odds for 2019/20 have been put up on Skybet...

Chesterfield 7/1
Notts County 7/1
Wrexham 10/1
Barnet 12/1
AFC Fylde 12/1
Harrogate 14/1
Stockport 14/1
Solihull 16/1
Yeovil 16/1
Bromley 20/1
Dagenham 20/1
Sutton 20/1
Torquay 20/1
Dover 25/1
Eastleigh 25/1
Ebbsfleet 25/1
Hartlepool 25/1
Barrow 28/1
Chorley 33/1
Borehamwood 40/1
Gateshead 40/1
Halifax 40/1
Woking 40/1
Maidenhead 50/1

Shows they've been following events at Gateshead, I don't think! Longer odds of them being in NL if Gatesheadfan is to be believed.....

Woking 40/1! They could be a good each way bet if Tarpey can rediscover his shooting boots

Told you so

Fixtures will be released on Wednesday 3rd July, as announced at the NL AGM. First Saturday in August will be the first match.

The fixtures not being out yet makes it very difficult for planning other leisure pursuits! Keen not to miss a few of the away games, and it would be typical to arrange something else for those dates only to get Harrogate or Torquay!

Last season started with lots of Tuesday night games in August, e.g. the first and second weeks. The 3rd week didn't have a mid-week game. Anyone know the fixture dates at least for this season? I'm wondering if there will be games on 13th/20th August. Based on last season, there would be on the 13th but not the 20th August.

Couldn't agree more. Why the EFL fixtures can be out in mid June but we have to wait until early July always infuriates me.

Would it have anything to do with the uncertainty of which teams are in which divisions in the non league pyramid?

Me too! Just shows hoe much we need to get out of this 'tin pot' league
