First day will be home to Bolton - you read it here first

Bring on Bolton away!

 

[Liquid Gold]

Why is Bristol Rovers always destined to be piss wet and cold.

 

[Grendel]

Most games at home on a Saturday which is good news

 

[Liquid Gold]

Sunderland on a Saturday. Thought that would be Tuesday for sure.

 

[jordan210]

Oxford away just sneaks in to August the swines

 

[matesx]

ooooooo the glamour, season opener away to Southend Utd.

Where did it all go wrong ?!

Gonna be fun

I was thinking the same-well up for the season but after I went through those fixtures I just thought-Meh!

Take away Sunderland\Ipswich and it’s the division of dearth.....

Im sure our back to back v Wycombe always comes within a short space of time- not sure why that is?
Dec 29 Jan 25

last season was October and January
year before December and January

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Fleetwood and Wycombe at home midweek. Even money the Fleetwood game will be lowest crowd of the season ?

 

[Nick]

Is that 20 out of 23 home games on the Saturday?

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

8k to MK (19th October!)

 

[GaryMabbuttsLeftKnee]

Also, isn't it already confirmed we are at home first day of the season with the lie of Villa's fixtures

My shock when we're at home on the first day of the season

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

I need new glasses - I counted 18 on first attempt!

 

[Nick]

Will be funny to watch everybody who tells everybody about their morals about moving clubs scrambling for tickets again.

 

[Nick]

You are probably right, it's still early so I have probably miscounted.

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

No Nick - just rechecked - it's 18.

 

[skybluesam66]

18 on a Saturday - but 20 are 3pm due to xmas and Easter

17 sep Wimbledon
23 Oct Fleetwood
11 Feb Portsmouth

26 Dec Bury
13 Apr Oxford

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

People at Sky will have to keep double checking when rescheduling Blues/Cov games

 

[Jcap]

Same. I counted 18

 

[theferret]

No Nick - just rechecked - it's 18.

Yeah, but with Easter Monday and Boxing Day it's only 3 proper midweek games.

 

[Skyblueweeman]

Just because the majority of fixtures are released for Saturday, doesn't mean they'll be played on Saturdays. The Premier League is the same...all fixtures released for Saturday but then once Sky/BT Sports have their way, there normally ends up about 5 EPL games on a Saturday with games moving to Friday night, Sunday and Monday night.

Same thing applies, although to a much lesser extent, to L1.

Then cup draws etc will mean games have to move. Whatever it says at the moment in terms of number of Saturday home games, won't be the number we play at home come the end of the season (ignoring the 'home' debate....).

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Always enjoyed Ipswich away (March 7th) - always assuming I have survived being hoyed by a Mackem the previous Saturday!

Get Philosorapter to do a probability graph for those who have trouble going to sleep.

Us Villa and Leicester in brum on the 7th of December :smuggrin::smuggrin::smuggrin::smuggrin::smuggrin::smuggrin:

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

6 away games in the last 10. If it's tight up top, that could make it difficult.

We play well away?? Id say thats better
We'll have more fans at away games too so better atmosphere

 

[PurpleBin]

Made up Tranmere away new years day.

 

[Sbarcher]

When does that auto calendar thing become available?

 

[Skyblueweeman]

Pompey away (home for me) on a Tuesday in August. Happy days. I'll be there.

 

[rockdude101]

Yeah but with the exception of Lincoln, they are all fairly long trips.

There's also the double away within a week trips to Fleetwood and Bristol.

Why did we get Sunderland and Ipswich back to back twice? That's either unlucky or fortunate.

Run in looks tough. Peterboro & Oxford seem to up their game playing us!

 

[rob9872]

Am I the only one who looks down that list and thinks; 'winnable, winnable, winnable, …..' ? I can't remember thinking that before, but in truth it's probably like this every season, however I am very optimistic about this. Perhaps I simply think we're better than we actually are!
