Some fixture quirks. in the 4 PL seasons Hull City have had (so far) we have always ended with a home game. 2009-Man Utd, 2010-Liverpool, 2014-Everton and now 2015-Man Utd again. A pattern is emerging. Hull City will play Swansea on the first w/e of april again. 2014 @ home and 2015 away. For those who think that City have too many games at the start of the season it is not that bad really. By the end of october we shall play 9 x PL, 7 x EL(hopefully), 2 x coc = 18 games. Championship clubs by the same time will have played 14 league games plus 4 coc games(those that make the 4th round). Bolton end the 2014/15 championship season with the same home fixture as 2013/14........Birmingham home on the 2nd may. Sky have picked 2 more tv games. Capital one first round ties : - Carlisle v. Derby(mon 11th aug and Coventry v. Cardiff(weds 13/aug)
