League Fixtures

[Pendle Red]

So 10am is the time on Monday morning when the New Seasons Fixtures will be released

The Road to League 1 for Stanley starts here

Let the Games Commence

Found this interesting interview of how the fixtures are compiled

Only downside for this Season no New Years Day Fixtures

[Stanleymad]

Probably set for a home match, our Dan Jewell was waffling on about the fixtures on 2br earlier

Boxing Day fixtures are hnd picked to minimise travel

Maybe you should have a whip round and buy the bloke a new A-Z of England

I reckon you will start at home. You are paired with us again and we have had 5 home starts in the last 6 seasons so we must be due an away start this time.. Ipswich will do me nicely

Not at all a bad set of fixtures for this season coming up! Please with the shots at home! Should be a good atmosphere and good following from them!

Have I missed something? I cannot see this on the fixture list on the fishy site. In fact, it gives the date as Wednesday, 13 August.

Why the bloody hell do we have to play Morecambe on Tuesday nights again, I had to miss last seasons victory and was looking forward to making it an away day weekend, not happy but what's new.

On the Wolves site it says Tuesday 12th August - 7.45pm kick off - anybody fancy going - a great pint of Banks beer in the George Pub at the back of the South Bank Stand from what I remember of my last trip there.

Brentford At home in the middle of winter, I bet they'll enjoy that!!! (200 miles and we called it off)
Darlington away, is not on a Tuesday night, which is good.
Also, Bury on the last day, what are the odds on that?

Thanks for that. Silly me. Of course I should have checked the Wolves site.

Don't know but I'll be at the bookies tomorrow to find out

[maccawozzagod]

good set of fixtures I think, Rochdale and Bury away on good dates and Chester home and away on bank holidays.
