Don’t think it’s seen as some big rivalry by the EFL then…

[Saddlebrains]

Got to amass points early with that run in

April looks vile

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

All promoted sides in the first four

 

[no_loyalty]

We should be top of the league by end of August

 

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

Blackpool away on a Saturday at least

I’m pissed at that… it’s Mother’s Day on the Sunday… I’ll be getting divorced if Im not there for that

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Would have rather played Sunderland later, I’d imagine their place will be bouncing first game back in the Championship, similar to our game vs Forest last season. Looks a pretty kind start, really need to look to be taking a decent amount of points early on. Reading and Birmingham back to back at home right at the end of the season is nice too.

Weekend away, everyone's happy

 

[Liquid Gold]

Need to hit the ground running with that start

 

[Nick]

Sunderland at 12 on a Sunday. Fucking awful.

Vile for the opposition too

 

[Londonccfcfan]

If it’s early kick off, couldn’t be worse really

Saturday night in Newcastle.!

 

[Esoterica]

Sunderland at 12 on a Sunday. Fucking awful.

Thought fans would be delighted by that - it's not so long to hold your shit in until kick off

 

[Londonccfcfan]

Sunday miles away early kick off = gash

Think loads will go up on the Saturday.

 

[Ian1779]

I think 10pts minimum from opening 5 games is not unreasonable.

 

[Londonccfcfan]

Just looking at the fixtures has me Salivating and drooling. Bring the season on. Cant wait!

Millwall away on Saturday 13th August another good away day.

Only down side is that stupid month break! Its like 2 seasons in one.

 

[GaryMabbuttsLeftKnee]

If you had asked me to pick a worse fixture I couldn't have. Mission away, Sunday, Midday. Grim. See you all there.

 

[robbiethemole]

Stay over, 2bed house Airbnb £70, cheaper than a premier inn. When will the tickets be on sale, it’s only 4 weeks away hahaha

And it's in the north east so have to get vaccinations etc .

 

[Tommo1993]

Would’ve liked to have avoided the likes of Sunderland and Wigan and Rotherham in the first few games. Sunderland in particular I think will be fit and firing to go back in the championship. It’ll mean more to their fans, they’ve taken 2 points from a possible 12 against us recently.

 

[the rumpo kid]

First 7 games all winnable, Sunderland play children's football, we should beat them comfortably.

 

[Fergusons_Beard]

Sheff Utd away Boxing Day brings back memories of Sean Flynn top binner and our last visit there on Boxing Day.

The Sunderland forum is in over drive.

some guy saying he is going to crack some skyblue sculls, others saying it’s an easy fixture as we only finished mid table.

 

[pusbccfc]

If they limit us to 2k or whatever, we better not give them the whole end.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

You want promoted sides early before they have got a foothold. That said those delighted that a club with much bigger spending power and support might come to regret that

Personally, I would rather play one of the 'better' sides. First game of the season is always more of a level playing field as teams haven't got up to full fitness or match sharpness. Usually creates a more level playing field. For that reason, and the fact that it will probably be a near sell out and Sunderland will be absolutely buzzing to be back in the Championship, I feel like this is a really bad first fixture for us

It’s the same for them though and they’ve been out of the league 4 years. As we saw when we played Blackpool early doors and indeed in our own debut season it takes these sides time to acclimatise.

Wrestling at the CBS on the same day as Rotherham.

Will be interesting to see if they can run both at the same time with all the potential security.

When the Olympics was here, they took full control of the entire stadium for 2 weeks, similar to what happens with major football tournaments.

Got two kids… can’t see the missus being happy if I don’t sort that one out.
