The Isthmian League website says 12.30 pm.
I'm confused.

Dont be dingle. Its definately 3-⁰pm. It was pre-arranged in case England qualified in 2nd place where the kick off would have been 12-30.
The league will change kick off time on their site today after Simon contacted them immediately after the result was known last night. I had to do the same with the officials too.

Thanks for that, Pete.
I see nine of the 15 EFL games on Sat kick off early. All National League matches are at 12.30pm as well as all National league South and North games.
The Isthmian League has obviously left it up to the individual clubs. I can't see too many Hastings supporters making to trek over to West Sussex this weekend.
It wouldn't stop me, but others take England games more seriously. That said, I'm pleased they have progressed to the knock out stage. Now the fun starts and the possibility of penalty shoot-outs!

The reason is that England play on Sunday. 3-00pm is our normal Saturday kick off time. Some of our supporters work Sat mornings but l do accept that a 1230 may have favoured a few. Also our normal start time means some playees do not have so travel early.

Given the now hike in energy prices has the league looked at earlier kick off times thereby reducing the floodlight costs for Saturday games I know can’t do anything about midweek matches but any savings would be helpful during the current crisis
