I’m sure the answer is in some thread and I know the Western drama has complicated things, but when has it been publicly stated when the dam draw will be released?
When they announced the Western United "hibernation" on Saturday, APL said it would be coming mid next week, so presumably Thursday at the latest. Look for one fixture for each team to be revealed via the A-Leagues phone app and count on there being a derby in each city before Christmas.
It'd be good if the new draw has pushed the first Kiwi derby date back from the rumoured 8 Nov.
Considering how late this draw is coming out it makes it a lot harder for away fans to make plans and get flights, accommodation etc with such short notice. Not such an issue for other derbies in the league as they are true derbies so travel isn't necessary.
Better chance of a good away presence that way
