    Champo fixtures are out tomorrow.

    We are usually allowed, I think, to post them briefly so we can discuss.

    Who do you all want for the first few games, the all important Christmas period etc
     
  2. Sorry, if we can't go, does it really matter?

    Much as I don't want to take away from you ennui for the new season, and without becoming a Fast Show "everything's brilliant" sketch of a fan, it's still something slightly worth looking forward to isn't it? Even if you have to watch it on the old tele box

    The fixtures came out today. I think we must be playing City or United in one of the postponed games, as I didn’t see us. Can anyone confirm?

    Hoping for a few Yorkshire midweek away games as long as we can go.

    First game will be Rotherham away (closest ground to me) followed by Luton away. Guarenteed.

    Stay away from promoted teams for first few games as they normally start all guns blazing. We will be most clubs cup final so on that note maybe Sheff Wednesday to start as they’ll be down in the dumps with point deduction. Plus there massive and will think they’re better than us. Nottingham same thing. I’ll predict Preston H muff A Reading H. Opening 3

    Ordinarily yes, but Rotherham and Coventry won't have played a competitive game for 7 months! Even Wycombe will have just had 3 games in that time too, could be a good time to play them.

    I suspect we'll get L*ton early as those games (particularly at the kennel) could be trouble if fans are allowed

    I guess we will be on Sky a couple of times and they will mule over when Vlad will be sacked..

    Those days are gone. No high category games on holidays, just in case fans are let back by then.

    Never thought of that. Hope all those players with that amount of time off have enjoyed themselves.

    Would be good to start off playing Norwich or Bournemouth, or any other favourites for promotion.

    Start at a high standard and push on.

    We've probably been less competitive for even longer tbf

    Man City home
    Liverpool away
    Chelsea home
    Utd away


    That should be enough to get Ivic the sack and get QSF back before the leaves start falling and minds start turning to pub fireplaces and pints of Young’s Winter Warmer .

    As oppposed to a Winter Warner which is next year when England’s bowling attack smash through the Aussie top order on the Boxing Day Test at the MCG .

    Have we changed our standing order of "BHA at home"?

    We have to play everyone twice anyway and given that there will be no fans
    the first day fixtures won't have that much appeal this season .

    Rotherham H 0-3 (shots on target 0)

    I'm delighted Luton home will be behind closed doors. We keep our stadium in tact.

    I can't find a difficult game in that lot. 138 points I think next season.

    That isn't the worst start in the world. First 5 games all against teams who have not really done anything of note at Championship level for a while.

    Spurs friendly on 5th Sept available for free on the club's "Hive Live" video service. The site implies that this service will be available during the season. No mention of cost yet.

    Yes, almost certain that our chums up the road would be an early fixture.
    I'm pleased they won't have the opportunity to trash the ground and melt SGT.
