Scunthorpe C2 at home is now on Friday 8th September, this was originally on the 16th August but the Showground became unavailable that day as has the rest of August
The Edinburgh and Workington clubs have been offered dates in September just waiting for them to accept and then details will be announced.
We are still waiting for Glasgow and Workington to offer us restaging dates for the aways lost to the weather.
All fixtures have to be completed by the 18th September to count for the league table and play offs.

Looks like I'm going to have a busy August at work so that works for me. We are at the mercy of the weather trying to cram them into 3'ish weeks in September, hopefully it'll be kind. The EoES off limits at the height of the speedway season, what a way to run a business? Of course with the kiddy winks off they have more opportunity to make a quick buck rather than look after their 40+ year regular customers

PROMOTER Ged Rathbone is confident Peterborough can complete their league fixtures ahead of the cut-off date as they need to complete 14 more meetings before September 18. Any taking place after then will not count towards play-off standings.
Peterborough have five successive away meetings this month and then a hectic run of home meetings which start with a visit from Newcastle on Wednesday, August 30.
Further East of England Showground clashes quickly follow against Glasgow (Sunday, September 3) and Scunthorpe (Friday, September 8) ahead of a double-header with Workington on Sunday, September 10.
Club chiefs are still working to squeeze in an outstanding home meeting with Edinburgh as well as trips to Workington and Glasgow with play-off qualification still possible.
Rathbone said: "It's certainly not ideal for us to go so long without a home fixture, but unfortunately it's the situation we find ourselves in as tenants at a venue. "We did have a meeting initially planned for August 16, but our landlords had to pull that date due to the volume of events on at the East of England Showground.
The September 10 double-header against Workington also has a later-than-usual Sunday start-time of 7pm due to an event taking place at the East of England Showground earlier in the day
