Fixtures Thread


Recommended Posts

League Cup draw tomorrow and the fixture lists come out on Wednesday.

 

So who do we want in the cup and what would be the best fixtures for certain times in the season?

 

For me, getting a North West team at home in the cup would be great. Opening day away to a team I could realistically get to. Finally and most importantly, please not Swindon away on a Tuesday night in winter!

Cup: someone like Hull or Burnley, that might get us on TV.

 

1st game: Barnsley away would be great, absolutely bouncing. Failing that, Blackpool or Wigan.

 

Rochdale games at strategic points where we need 3 points and a morale boost...

How many do you think we would take if we got barnsley away? (first game)

Just under 2000.

 

Local away first game in the league and the same but at a Championship club in the cup hopefully ie. Burnley, Bolton, Blackburn, Derby, Leeds.

Chance of TV given Boro's finish last season?

 

Other potentials:

 

Accrington v Hull

Doncaster v Leeds

Vale v Burnley

Yeovil v QPR

Bristol R v Birmingham

Portsmouth v Derby

Southend v Brighton

Wycombe v Fulham

Quite possible I would imagine

One of the top Championship finishers away to glamour team...

If it was up to me I'd scrap this competition. It brings no crowds and money until you get to the semi final. Does any team really take it serious?

I seem to remember us taking it relatively seriously once. Glad they hadn't scrapped it before then.
