Confirm the authoritative data source
Identify the competition system responsible for dates, venues and results. Check available feeds or links and document where corrections must be made before building the club display.
Standardise teams and dates
Use consistent team names, readable dates and venue context across the site. Mobile visitors should reach the next relevant fixture without navigating a large table designed only for desktop.
Add notices without rewriting the draw
Use dated club notices for transport, uniforms or local context while leaving official competition facts with their source. Link match reports after the event to build a richer seasonal archive.
