If we draw we'll only be second based on alphabetical-ness. Or something.

I was on holiday for that one so it totally passed me by

 

[zablade]

Tough looking August, we will need to hit the ground running as I expect Bristol, Peterboro and Preston to be all up there and Coventry and Crawley are in the maybe column for play places as well.

Need that Striker in, we cant aford to wait until October for Ched with that start.

 

[Bladepicker]

I quite like the tough start - gives us a good grounding and hopefully if we pick up wins in those games then we will be in a very strong position.

That said - it's hard at this level to say what our 'hard games' will be - always one or two suprise teams up there and down at the bottom for that matter too. I think it is only really the Prem where you pretty much know who the top 6 are going to be come May.

 

[stannyblade]

first 6 games and we will play 5 clubs I expect to be there or there abouts come May

Evans first goal on as sub at home to the Dingles.

Not surprised... we've had it on the August bank holiday for a couple of years so they weren't going to be that kind to us again.

 

[Harry's Game]

People saying it looks tough? well I would say we have to play everyone sometime so it dosen't matter if we play the big sides at the start middle or end of the season.

I look on it as an opportunity to not only get off to a good stasrt but already to take points off teams likely to be promotion rivals, and to be honest if we are to be automatic contenders the only game in August that should give us trouble is Preston away as I think It will be between us, them and Doncaster for top two.

It also gives the usual bell-ends their moment of glory if we haven't got 16 pts out of the first 6.

Hi Rodders.

 

[Damski]

Orient is the last away day of the season. I'll definitely go to that.

 

[Rodders]

Hi Rodders.

HI raul mate, funny to see you pop up?

As someone moving down to London in September, this was the first fixture I liked for.

Might try out other Yorkshire teams as well in the smoke - Huddersfield at Fulham on a Tuesday February night sounds good.
