2017/18 Fixtures
Out tomorrow. Who do you fancy first up? Who to avoid?
For one reason or another, Darlington aside, I haven't seen us play in the North East yet so either Sunderland or Boro away for me.

I had a feeling it could be Sunderland away or at home.

Deffo up for more away matches this time out. I've done Boro away - it's dreadful.
May the bridges I burn light your way

Boro away was always a favourite of mine, usually a reasonable number and always a good drink up! dunno whether they still have that floating strip club near the ground any more?

Re: 2017/18 Fixtures
Might sound like stating the obvious but I'd like a match we can win, or at least avoid defeat. The opening-day result can set the tone, and the following midweek we're on a hiding-to-nothing trip to Crewe where we'll presumably be picking the fringe players of a squad that won't exactly be deep anyway.

Re: 2017/18 Fixtures
Nah. Lets have a big one like Sunderland at home. We might lose but it will give us a taste of things to come and whet the appetite for some big crowds at the Macron.Dave Sutton's barnet wrote: ↑Tue Jun 20, 2017 9:54 amMight sound like stating the obvious but I'd like a match we can win, or at least avoid defeat.

I get that a good start is important but equally as said above it might be best to play one of the big guns before they get going (see Sheff Utd last season).

Re: 2017/18 Fixtures
Sunderland are a right mess to be fair. I think they will struggle this year. Boro should be stable enough to challenge, hull are an odd one. Villa, Sheff Weds, Reading and Derby you would expect to be strong...Leeds who knows!

It'll be either Derby at home, or Sheff Yonited away..

Happy with either of those. Imagine if we went to Sheff Utd and won?boltonboris wrote: ↑Tue Jun 20, 2017 12:02 pmIt'll be either Derby at home, or Sheff Yonited away..

Re: 2017/18 Fixtures
As an aside, I see that Celtic could be due to play at Linfield during marching season, so that's going to end well

Re: 2017/18 Fixtures
Strangely enough, as per a couple of posters above, I thought we might get Sunderland at home first game
Re: 2017/18 Fixtures
I've narrowed it to 46 possibilities.

Re: 2017/18 Fixtures
Haven't we asked the league to organise the first couple of fixtures as away games due to the closure of Bolton station?
I feel reborn !!!! No more confussion
