    Yes a tough start but the Ilson fans will turn up in numbers to help with their support. Looks a pretty good ground as well.
    Leiston away should be full coach I would have thought what with the fixture being a week before crimbo.

    Re: Opening Day Fixtures - Tough start for Ilkeston

    .

    These are our opening month's fixtures:

    Sat  06.08.22    v    Tamworth    A   
    Sat  13.08.22    v    Leiston    H   
    Mon 15.08.22    v    Barwell    A  
    Sat  20.08.22    v    Redditch United    H   
    Sat  27.08.22    v    Rushden & Diamonds    A    
    Mon 29.08.22    v    Mickleover    H   

    Six league matches in August (3 home games and 3 away games)
    It's important to get off to a good start, so how many points should we expect to have by the end of August?
    Not having played against some of these teams it's difficult to predict outcomes but I would be looking to collect at least 10 points.
    Thats just 3 wins and a draw or 2 wins and 4 draws. Hopefully we can do better than that.

    The opening match sometimes defines how a season will go. Tamworth is a really tough start and any kind of result would be a good. 
    We should be looking to win our home games so 3 points against Leiston who finished 7th last season is expected especially if we didn't get anything from Tamworth.
    Barwell won't be easy but I think we can draw there at the very least.
    Redditch United should be another home win. They finished last season 15th with only 4 away wins.
    Rushden & Diamonds will be another tough away game where a point may be all we should expect.
    When I think of Mickleover I remember that painful 7-0 away defeat. In our first Bank Holiday local derby at the NMG we might have to settle for a point.
