Woking's December and January television schedule has been confirmed, with four National League fixtures selected for DAZN broadcast and two National League Cup group stage matches set for NL+. The club's league position adds urgency to these televised encounters, as they currently sit 23rd with just four points from six games.
The selections cover a important period for the Cards. Their form reads LDLWL, having scored only four goals while conceding ten. This leaves them twelve points behind early leaders Boreham Wood, a gap they will aim to close during this televised run.
Which Woking fixtures are on TV in December?
The broadcast schedule begins in December with a league encounter. Woking will host Boston United at the Laithwaite Community Stadium on Tuesday, December 15th, with a 19:45 kick-off live on DAZN. This is followed by a trip to Brunton Park to face Carlisle United on Saturday, December 26th at the traditional 15:00 time, also broadcast on DAZN. Fans can track all upcoming matches on the club's fixtures page.
These games present a significant opportunity for Michael Doyle's side to build momentum. The match against Boston United will be a chance to improve a home record that has contributed to their difficult start. The full squad available for these key fixtures can be viewed on the official squad list.
What about the January TV selections for Woking?
January brings two more National League broadcasts. First, Woking travel to Solihull Moors on Tuesday, January 29th for a 19:45 start on DAZN. They then return home to face local rivals Eastleigh on Saturday, February 3rd in a 15:00 kick-off, again shown on DAZN. This derby clash is always a highlight of the calendar and could be key for morale.
Sandwiched between these league dates are the cup commitments. The National League Cup group stage continues with a home game against Leicester City's Under-21 side on Tuesday, January 13th at 19:45, which will be streamed on NL+. This follows an earlier cup match against Southampton's Under-21s on Tuesday, December 8th, also on NL+.
How does the TV schedule impact Woking's season?
This concentrated block of televised games arrives at a critical juncture. The team's current standings show they are in a relegation battle, making every point from these matches vital. The exposure can be a double-edged sword, applying pressure but also offering a platform to turn the season around. The manager will need to manage squad fitness carefully across this busy period.
The fixture against Eastleigh is particularly important given the local rivalry and the need for points. A positive result in front of the cameras could provide the spark needed for the second half of the campaign. The club's defensive record, showing a minus six goal difference, will be tested during this run.
What is the context of these broadcast picks?
The selections are part of the National League's ongoing broadcasting agreements. While providing revenue and exposure, they also require adaptation from teams regarding travel and preparation. Woking's schedule is now set, allowing fans to plan their viewing. The next televised fixture for the Cards is the National League Cup tie against Southampton U21s on December 8th at 19:45 on NL+.
