Does that coincide with the start of the school year? If so most of our first team will be tired after there first few days at "Big School"

Giant killing? When was the last time we pulled of a giant killing? Just can't see it happening myself.

Fleetwood have never participated in the League Cup and now they have been handed a big name in the shape of Nottingham Forest.

Last season's losing finalists Cardiff City begin their campaign at Northampton Town.

Indeed the match, as it will be for every team, will be the first match of the season as the league does not start until August 18 - but all ties will be played the week prior.

The Football League also confirmed that subject to approval, teams could play their matches on the weekend of August 12-13.

I think it is a big ask, i expect us to lose, especially taking on 2 teams at once with our ever younger and decreasing squad!!

When we held Burnley to a draw?

Any chance of this being played on a Saturday? Heard a rumour that if both clubs agree it can be moved.

Got makes who live in Upminster, Romford and Dagenham so this would be perfect for a day and night on the lash!

Fooking hope not, I've already got my Bristol Rovers train tickets....:thinking about:

I'm well placed to get to this game so i'll definately be going. I just bloody well can't wait for the season to kick off. As i've lived abroad for the last 9 years i'm gagging for the season to start, i'm counting the days down.
Being starved of Saturday matchdays for so long has been pretty awful,infact i've missed this much more than friends and family,(hope they don't see this), and to think i can start to watch the skyblues regularly again is so exciting.
Now the kids have grown up ,and one's even flown the nest,i have that majic phrase that most of us lose when we have kids, FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT, and i can pretty much go about my week in any way i want.Bloody fan-dabby-doozy.

Don't get too excited yet - I know for a fact that the FL are not allowed to stage any games in London during the Olympics, which may well prevent us from playing on the Saturday at Dagenham!!
