Opening fixtures of the season-What will the computer throw our way ?

[Eeyore]

Remembering that, with the new season starting on August 9th, Albion could be home or away on the first day of the new season. So what are the predictions for the first five games of the season ?

And who would members most like to see as the first home and away fixtures ?

I’m going for:

Bolton Wanderers (H)
Fulham (A)
Huddersfield Town (H)
Derby County (A)
Rotherham United (H)

I’d most like to see the first home fixture against Norwich City and the first away one against Birmingham City.

There is a massive kids event in Stanmer Park on August 9th

So we have to play away from home ? On the one year Pride doesn't clash.

That's the first game moved to a Sunday then

Fulham first away game would be decent, 6000 allocation and will be a sell-out. Expect it will end up mid-March Tuesday night.

Ideally we'd like to start with an easy-ish game so either Birmingham home or away.

Derby away first game of the season! I can still remember a few of their smug faces.. (They did have the right to be smug to be fair)

Worse still Sky like to show the very first Championship match of the season on the Friday evening...................hope it doesn't involve us.

Does that allocation include the 'neutral stand' where fans of Liverpool, Man Utd, but mostly 山东鲁能泰山足球俱 (Shandong Luneng Taishan F.C.) and Guangzhou Evergrande Football Club (广州恒大足球俱乐部) rub shoulders together?

They won't be having a 'neutral' area this forthcoming season I believe, for small teams they'll split it like they do the south stand at the Amex but for those teams who travel well they'll get the full end.

Might be excellent news for me. I'm away that weekend at a festival so if it's a home match that gets moved to the Sunday I'll be able to make it.

As a championship club, Fulham would not be able to attract neutrals as easy, as if they were in PL.

 

[Kuipers Supporters Club]

Derby away please.

 

[del strangefish]

Blackpool Away Please. As I will be working there.

It will if we are playing Leeds

 

[carteater]

Derby away, so we can get revenge on them...

 

[Braders]

It's BOUND to be Derby away , reckon Blackburn will be the first home game


Fulham has boxing day written all over it.
