LEWES fans face a trip to Worcestershire for the Rooks first ever game in the top flight of non league football – before hosting Sussex rivals Crawley Town three days later.
Lewes travel to former league side Kidderminster Harriers on Saturday, August 9, before the visit of Crawley Town to the Dripping Pan on Tuesday, August 12.
Supporters have been denied a day out in the sun in the English Riviera as Lewes visit Tor
quay United on a winter's mid-week evening in November, although the trip to Weymouth on Saturday, August 23 – Bank Holiday weekend – looks far more appealing.
And at least the long trips to Barrow, York and Wrexham all fall on a Saturday afternoon.
Lewes return to the scene of last year's FA Cup adventure when they visit Mansfield Town on Saturday March 7, while the traditional seasonal double header against Eastbourne Borough continues when the Rooks visit Priory Lane on Boxing Day before the return fixture on New Year's Day.
All fixtures are provisional and subject to change. Full list below:
