whitlock Posted 16 June 2009 Posted 16 June 2009 I obviously hate losing as much as anyone but i particularly hate losing the opening game, so much hype expectation and build up to this first game and then we lose! I recently remember Blackpool, that was horrible, Luton on telly, sheff utd on telly, all killlers!
Guest Bilo Posted 16 June 2009 Posted 16 June 2009 An away game to start with, and I'd like to finish at home. I'll go for Plymouth away on the first day and Blackpool at home on the last day. Probably send 'em down too..
CosbehFox Posted 16 June 2009 Posted 16 June 2009 Connolly and De Vries was up top? Douglas give a penalty away i thinkk? either 3-1 or 4-1 Yeh, I watched in the pub on my holidays and I was too downhearted cos we actually did do too bad (we were simply caught on the counter, a couple of times towards the end). Then I thought we were in for a great season when we beat Stoke 4-2 the following Tuesday. Watford at home....always do well at the Walkers in August against them poxy so-so's.
Ford Super Sunday Posted 16 June 2009 Posted 16 June 2009 There is a crazy person on another forum which I am a member of who has published what he 'claims' is the opening day fixtures. Reckon it'll be Newcastle at home for us Don't believe it though
StanSP Posted 16 June 2009 Posted 16 June 2009 Yeh, I watched in the pub on my holidays and I was too downhearted cos we actually did do too bad (we were simply caught on the counter, a couple of times towards the end).

Lovely Connolly hat-trick. Then he left
whitlock Posted 16 June 2009 Posted 16 June 2009 Went to that . Lovely Connolly hat-trick. Then he left Bastard. Money grabbing, where is he now?
dandannieldanok Posted 16 June 2009 Posted 16 June 2009 Last season's first game against Blackpool seems decades ago.
ousefox Posted 16 June 2009 Posted 16 June 2009 Bastard. Money grabbing, where is he now? Free Agent I think
StanSP Posted 16 June 2009 Posted 16 June 2009 Last season's first game against Blackpool seems decades ago. It wasn't last season that's why.
whitlock Posted 16 June 2009 Posted 16 June 2009 Free Agent I think Shame, he was fairly decent for us.
DB11 Posted 16 June 2009 Posted 16 June 2009 4-1 As a matter of fact, we don't really have a good record on the opening day. We've only won two of our last eight opening day fixtures. At a complete guess, did we get promoted both times? (seeing as 02-03 was within the last eight opening day fixtures and I can't be bothered to check if we won ) It wasn't last season that's why. Yes it was. 07-08?
SamL Posted 16 June 2009 Posted 16 June 2009 At a complete guess, did we get promoted both times? (seeing as 02-03 was within the last eight opening day fixtures and I can't be bothered to check if we won )Yes it was. 07-08? Correct. 2002/03 and 2008/09.
StanSP Posted 16 June 2009 Posted 16 June 2009 The last season we played in was 08-09. Thank you. I see being in every Championship page across the whole of the world as a new season.
dandannieldanok Posted 16 June 2009 Posted 16 June 2009 I'm still on 08/09 season until pre-season starts.
whitlock Posted 16 June 2009 Posted 16 June 2009 First season at the walkers we was promoted, 2 nil win over watford, Deano (2)
clazkel Posted 16 June 2009 Posted 16 June 2009 Im hoping for a home game first game of the season not away as i cant go due to going to my friends wedding, well im supposed to be going to the wedding. Maybe if its a big game then it will be changed to the Friday evening or Sunday, that would be good as i could go. Here's hoping!
Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 16 June 2009 Posted 16 June 2009 I am gonna say that we will get Watford at some point in August, if not Watford first game i will say Ipswich at home.
Tommeh Posted 16 June 2009 Posted 16 June 2009 If Sheffield United or Wednesday away fall before October I am going to cricify myself and the nympty responsible.
Joe. Posted 16 June 2009 Posted 16 June 2009 If Sheffield United or Wednesday away fall before October I am going to cricify myself and the nympty responsible. Too right, I'm well up for two weekends in Sheff next season with you Hallam boys!
DB11 Posted 16 June 2009 Posted 16 June 2009 Thank you. I see being in every Championship page across the whole of the world as a new season. A season is from 1st July to 31st May. No 11 a side games are sanctioned by the FA during June (supposedly - it says in the handbook).
Fosse Boy Posted 16 June 2009 Posted 16 June 2009 I am gonna say that i reckon we will get Watford at some point in August, if not Watford first game i will say Ipswich at home. Isn't that standardly a Boxing Day defeat? <_< As long as Ipswich away is in uni term time, I'll be happy.
Joe. Posted 16 June 2009 Posted 16 June 2009 Read something about that. Apparently a site can get fined £10,000 if you don't have a license to publish full fixtures. Apparently you can only post 3 lots of fixtures i.e. 3 weekends etc. Basically some company called Dataco (the branch that look after PL, FL and SPL) charge ridiculous fees for fixtures so most sites can't show them. You can get into all sorts of trouble for publishing the full fixture list (actually, more than two fixtures believe it or not), so, so incredibly frustrating and petty. The fixtures are merely advertisments for the games that the fans go and pay their hard-earned money to see at the end of the day.
Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 16 June 2009 Posted 16 June 2009 Isn't that standardly a Boxing Day defeat? <_< As long as Ipswich away is in uni term time, I'll be happy. It always seems to be an xmas fixture yes, so I imagine we will probably get them third or fourth game away then at home at xmas.
