Why are there no Advance tickets on some services on Virgin on 8th September?

Chester to London? Some services don't have any available at all, 17:35, 16:35? Other dates have them available on those, and I've previously booked an Advance on the 17:35 on a Friday twice before. The calendar on their website seems to suggest the booking isn't fully open on the 7th and the 8th, yet Advances are available for some services on those dates. What's going on?

There not open for booking yet which suggests that NR haven't validated the paths yet.

I tweeted VT and they told me that they would be available from the 10th of July, but they didn't offer any explanation.

10th came and still not available. Then it was today, and guess what? Nothing! Now it's next week. Does anyone have a clue what the hell is going on??

All I've managed to get out of them is that there is a "problem with the Voyager sets". If that is the case then why is it only those dates that are affected?? I need to book a journey!!

Still not available! Now they're giving me some line about having to wait for engineering works to be confirmed, which I know it total bs because weekday tickets are always released by works have been confirmed. I think I'm being strung along. I need to book a trip, and all the time I'm waiting for tickets for the service I want to use to come along, tickets for other trains that need a change are being booked up!!
