    We'll be home first game I reckon as we have to be home on the 3rd game as City will have to be away due to the balloon fiesta. I can't see our first 4 games being... away home home away. I think it will be home away home away.

    Barnsley, Ipswich and Sheff Wednesday are away on a Tuesday night. Whoever thought that was clever needs a punch in the face.

    Our last 6 home games... Barnsley, Portsmouth, Charlton, Derby, Sheff Wednesday and Bolton. On paper, that looks a tough run in at the Mem!

    Great opening fixture - at home for a local derby!

    There's some big teams in L1 this season - should make for some decent home gates especially if we start well.

    Not a bad start as long as the lads hit the ground running. The run in looks really tough! Anyway I think we'll be there or thereabouts provided we get a few more signings and a bit of luck with injuries etc.

    Has anybody heard anything about pre season friendlies, like opponents, places, times. I have not seen or heard about any fixtures apart from one which was possibly in Portugal which was cancelled and any fans who made were making the trip could watch a training session? instead.

    Fixture against Crawley could prove interesting they have signed Dom Telford on a 3 year deal

    Wow. I wasn't expecting Crawley! I thought L1 or someone throwing stupid money at him in L2 like Salford for example.

    Wouldn't have thought the words 'Swindon' and 'Friendly' should ever be used in the same sentence! :emoticon-0136-giggl
