NZFC 2004/05 - Canterbury played extra home game (Pt.1)

Is this a mistake? Was thinking that each team should play up to a max. of 11 games at home during a 21-game season.

Have emailed NZFC.CO.NZ since last year but no firm reply yet, although it was mentioned that "they did play Auckland in Nelson that year which would have been counted as a home game for Canterbury (in Round 17 which they lost 0-3)".

Can anyone help?

NZFC 2004/05 - Canterbury played extra home game (Pt.2)
At the end of 2007/08 (4th season), where every team should have played equal number (42) of Home/Away games, Canterbury will again play 1 more home game than others, while Waikato play 1 less.

It was the same case at the end of 2005/06 (2nd season), where all else played 21 Home/Away, Canterbury played 22 while Waikato played just 20 at Home.

Even if their game with Auckland is switched, Waikato would have still played 1 less Home Game, while Auckland played 1 more instead.

So I guess there're more errors in the 2004/05 fixtures, or even 2005/06?
