Forest fixture calendar 2011-2012

Every season I put together a google calendar of Forest fixtures so that I can view them easily on my phone. I’ve just done the 2011-2012 one and made it public in case anyone else finds it useful.

It used to be a bit fiddly to add these calendars onto the iPhone (not sure about other devices) but it seems Google now provide a simpler method which looks like it works.

You need to have a Google account for this.

First, log into Google Calendar in a browser:

Google calendar

On the left-hand side, click ‘Add’ and select ‘Add by URL’.

Add calendar step 1

Paste the following into the URL box and click ‘Add Calendar’.

https://www.google.com/calendar/ical/3ti23ib6be3l9l8fulrhhd29eo%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics

iCal address pasted in

You should now see thecalendar listed on the left hand side under ‘Other Calendars’ and looking at dates from August you should see fixtures appearing.

Calendar added

At this stage, you are subscribed to the calendar and will see any updates I make to it. I suspect if you have an Android phone then it may just automagically start appearing on your phone but haven’t got one to check.

If you want the fixtures on your iPhone then there is one final step. Visit https://www.google.com/calendar/iphoneselect and check the box next to the fixtures calendar (highlighted).

Google calendar sync settings

Open your calendar on the iPhone and you should start seeing the fixtures appearing.

All done! Come on You Red’uns!
