FIXTURES 2024-25

[Forever Blue]

Fixtures are out at 9am

[ABBEY]

Dingles n nobbers away ..very early 

[Forever Blue]

Derby at home first game of the season on Friday night

[Mattyblue]

Straight in with a fixture move, get used to it folks.

[tomphil]

Bloody hell Bumley and the other lot away early and close together.

Away followings will be dire after that this season when no one is trying to get attendance to qualify for a Turd ticket.

Coincided perfectly with me moving away from Cardiff after living there for 13 years - cheers lads!

[Upside Down]

How long until the Dingle games get moved from Saturday?

[Exiled_Rover]

Rovers making a massive song and dance about the fixture list release.

Surely absolutely nobody is looking forward to the new season, right?

We limped over the line last year. We DESPERATELY need reinforcements. I'm dreading another season with this squad.

Swag will be happy with that Opener and Boxing Day. Derby and Sunderland will bring big followings, both should be 20k+ with Sunderland probably getting the whole Darwen End that could push further.

Interesting looking at that there really are not many London clubs left in the Championship. QPR and Millwall only. Whilst the likes of Brentford, Fulham and Palace are all flourishing in the top league. The north/south divide feels like it's widening further.

Within 7 days according the a post a few up from yours.

[Mattyblue]

Half of the PL is based in London and on the south coast.

Probably why the quality is so fucking shit.

Two promoted teams at home to start both with momentum. Norwich and Dingles away. Predicting nil points by end August.

I reckon we'll have no more than 5 by the end of September.

Not a coincidence, sadly. Look at the places that have growing, younger populations with a few more quid in their back pocket, and you're mainly talking about London, large university cities and the wealthier areas of the South of England. The opposite to most large towns & small cities in the North & Midlands, so it's inevitable that more investors, players and fans are going to available to teams in the South unfortunately.

Unfortunately feels like inevitable conclusion of the economic changes since the end of the 70's.

I feel we now have a new draw specialist in charge so i expect that'll be the plan in a lot of games.

Could see Derby filling it too.

[robbojohnno]

Always an exciting time when the fixtures are released regardless of off the field issues. Derby at home on a Friday night gives us a chance to put points on the board early albeit not many new signings expected in our eleven. 

[chaddyrovers]

Good that local derbies are early in the season. 

Pleased to be home over the Christmas period

I always look forward to it.
