First Match

Preston and on to Blackpool or Southport afterwards perhaps .

Who goes to Blackpool unless necessary?

Derby away.

That should sort the ' men out from the boys '

[rolymiller]

I think it might be a longish distance match away. I'll go for summat like Brentford away. Think we will get the blunts at home in the first 6 games. Piggys away beginning of Nov. Last game of season: Middlesbro away. Christmas/ New year time: Leeds at home.

W*******y at home

Can anybody remember a South Yorkshire derby of any sort on the first game of the season? Is the fixture planning "loaded" to avoid this sort of eventuality? e.g. would plod have an objection? (Don't see why to be honest). More likely is Sky sticking their oar in!

[rolymiller]

Didn't we have Donny once a few years ago? I know it tends to be unusual though.

SLIGHTLY off topic I'm hoping to be able to get to QPR & Brentford away..
Never done a night in London other than Kew when there for the marathon 3yr ago...fancy trying central London for a few beers.

Brentford/QPR (Shepherds Bush) areas are good for drinking anyway. I've walked from Kew Bridge to Griffin Park before - it's not very far away

[millertop]

Swansea away, another holiday thrown in but I won’t be surprised if they save that for a midweek winter game

[rolymiller]

Yep we always play Swansea away midweek when it's freezing cold.

[millertop]

2 days to go, hope it’s not Wigan 😂

The last 5 playoff winners (including Millers last time) have all been drawn away in their first game in the Championship. My hunch is either London or other south club. So I will go for Norwich. Should please Warney.
