That's a tough looking start to the season. I'm a happy bunny as I already booked travel to SC4M in Winchester in September and was keeping my fingers crossed for a home game and I'll get to see... Rotherham
Any idea when Sky announce their picks? Always a Friday night or Sat lunchtime?
Bristol Rovers are at AFC Wimbledon on Boxing Day too, which is almost as bad as ours.
You have to wonder about the fixture computer, when it sets Plymouth v Carlisle midweek!!!
I think this is the least enthusiastic i've been in a long time.
Relative Good points - I don't miss any decent ones when i'm abroad. Brighton (a) is the weekend of my brothers birthday and Brighton (h) will be decent for St Georges Day and Derby away is a weekend for the first time in ages so I can tick Pride Park of at long last. Leeds away is on a Sat for first time in a while too.
Bad points - Bristol City on Boxing day / Hard start on paper / No exciting fixtures! zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
I reckon the drive to and from Bristol on Boxing Day is going to be easier than Yeovil was, didn't enjoy that return journey at all, even bouyed by the win.
It wasn't that long ago we were in League 1 and looking at a fixture list that included Stevenage, Gillingham, Walsall etc. I'm quite happy to be looking forward to Forest, Derby, Leeds, Wolves..
Was a Saturday @oohaahmortimer - though was in that forgettable period when we thought we were a goner under Riga before we had that good end of season run culminating in a Harriot hat trick against Blackpool. Year (season) before was a September match as far as I remember and we lost that too.

Boxing Day easy for us as we are in Swindon

out, surely the QPR game must tick a lot of boxes?
