Surprised to see a lot of folk wanting the big hitters to start with like Stockport, Wrexham, Notts etc. I'd rather have a winnable looking home game like Crawley or Newport.Not saying any game will be easy but we quite often seem to get these games where we're the incidental part of a wider narrative and it never feels like it ends that well for us.

Agree with this 100pc.How often have we won the opening match of the season since our return to the league in 2003/04 So that’s 20 seasons.Now I have not done any research into this but off the top of my head I can only clearly remember 4 times.I will gues that it is no more than 6 though. Over to you Dutch Uncle or someone else who has this knowledge.The 4 i remember are Leyton Orient A 03/04 in the first season of course.Blackpool H I think was either 04/05 or 05/06 I remember Colin Henry playing for them.Derby A 1st championship season 08/09 Preston A guessing at 09/10 or 10/11 How many of the 1st games which were at home have we drawn. I think it’s most of them.

Didn’t think our record was as good as that away from home. Can’t believe I forgot the Southend game. 2018/19 So that’s 5 with the other 4 that i mentioned.Which were the 2 others then Pib away from home. Gone completely blank on them

Gone completely blank on them Walsall away in 2012/13 (Cotterill from 40 yards and all that), plus Yeovil away in 2014/15 when Dickov was in charge and we'd just been relegated from the Championship. The scorers that day were Curtis Main, Harry Forrester and Theo Robinson.

Wrexham away would be a nice start...
Well the ‘leaked’ fixtures that never seem to be right have us at Barrow away.
I would like Morecambe away for a seaside weekender for me.
Harrogate at home. Perfect. Easy home fixture and can hopefully banish the memories of that nightmarish evening of the same fixture from last season.
