Start Of New Season

[el punal]

Does anyone know the date of the start of next season's league fixtures? I have unfortunately (timing wise) go to go on holiday with the good lady wife from Thurs.8th Aug. to Thurs.15th Aug. So, in real terms I'm hoping that I will only miss one game (Sat.10th Aug).

I do understand that the fixtures won't be out until late June but if anyone has any info. regarding the first weekend of Championship matches, or dare I hope, Premier League games please let me know.

Oh and by the way, my wife is a teacher so it's August or nowt!

Usually the second weekend in August

....or late July before the football season starts?

The Football League has confirmed that next season will kick-off on August 3.

The decision to start the 2013/14 season slightly earlier than usual follows a ballot of clubs, with a clear majority in all three divisions preferring the chosen date as it delivers an additional Saturday match.

I think this season started on the 18th August.

I believe the first weekend of league games is 3rd August

August 3rd

Didn't this season start later because of that small sporting event in London.

Premiership is August 17th, if Wiki is to be believed (?!)

As Pride is scheduled for August 3rd (I think), I presume we would request an away game on August 3rd if we are still in The Championship?

I know. Tried that one - grandson's birthday beginning of August and not allowed to miss on pain of vital organs being removed!

You'll have to take him with you then.

Can't see why both can't mingle!

August 3rd seems a bit early. Got a wedding to go to on 17th August and funnily enough watching The Wedding Present on 24th. Some early Friday night/ Sunday lunchtime kick offs would be appreciated.

I think this season started on the 18th August.

Due to Olympics start was put back

 

[Butch Willykins]

World Cup year also, so I assume it will start early, finish early.

Thank you everyone, I might get to see the first game of the season as it starts on 3rd August.
