.........21 June.

A statement released by the EFL reads: “Supporters of all 72 EFL Clubs will be able to start making plans for the 2018/19 season on Thursday, June 21, as the fixtures for all three divisions of the Sky Bet EFL are set to be released at 9am.

Yes, they always come out near my birthday. I think the Premier League ones are out a week earlier.

If the cycle of the last 6 seasons continues, our first match will be away.

Looking forward to tomorrow morning to see who our first games are against.
With all this World Cup stuff going on I had forgotten that the fixtures are due out.

I think that's Steve's point, that it's alternating. Not that I've looked.

Burton away would do me nicely. A reasonably local game.

The most important fixture to me is always Boxing Day.....but our record has been pretty dreadful i.e mainly away (like cup fixtures!)....& being the negative sod that I am I predict away to Walsall....or Coventry. What would I like? Sunderland at home - not a cat in hell's chance!!!

Portsmouth away is my prediction for our opening match.

Doesn't even matter. Oldham have been relegated from the third tier so the world is going to end.

I know we were Filo, that's my point; as Alias said, the last 6 seasons have alternated.

I will be waiting till they are released

At least this year I have not seen the "Fixtures" leaked online thread - which always are nowhere near the real ones
Bet we get a massive amount of Threads all saying pretty much the same think. Would be nice to have a single Thread. I will try one !  :thumbsup:
