Cue the sound of 5000 feet scurrying off to find their diaries! The other 20000 feet to follow shortly I hope.

no sign of even the "media release announcement" on the FFA site either

googled it for news and web and no sign anywhere apart from Jaza's post- surely some other evidence should be around ..????

I wonder if Jaza has hoodwinked us ?? edit -apologies Wise Sir Jaza for doubting

Permalink

maybe so, it could just be that I've got used to the phoenix approach of issuing a press release to announce that there will be a press release but I am surprised that there is no inkling of it anywhere else on the web

for me the A-league draw would be about the biggest news this week and it seems strange that there hasn't been any 'build-up' to it

Probably won't make the TV news tonight either.

the wily Hardnews (whose mailbox is full!) has some news from the press conf - regarding hyundai extending there naming rights

so perhaps we will hear about the fixtures today! maybe I've maligned Jeza unnecessarily

Now i've got to depart the PC for a coupla hours, aarggh

hopefully you lot will have had some fixtures to dissect by the time i'm back in contact with the source of all football goss that is YF

(then we can get excited about particular weekends and i can plan my summer hols around the fixtures!)

Probably fits into their tv schedules better...because of the time difference.

Like how the warriors ALWAYS play on a sunday for their home games.

Kind of sucks though..

Allegedly
