GRAVESEND'S opening game on their return to the Nationwide Conference, against Yeovil, is to be played at Dorchester. The Conference sanctioned the move after Yeovil sought permission to switch the game following problems with their Huish Park pitch which has been relaid with new drainage at a cost of £250,000.

After taking on Yeovil, Fleet open their home campaign against runners-up Dagenham and Redbridge on Tuesday 20 and entertain Hereford four days later on Saturday, August 24. The Fleet and their supporters face the short trip to Dagenham and Redbridge's Victoria Road ground on Boxing Day and visit Kent rivals Margate on New Year's Day.
