Is there a possibility this could be played on Friday the 5th if we're picked for TV?

I'm at the edgbaston test that day so a home game would suit as I wouldn't want to miss a decent away game.

Is Sky still doing FL72 games on Friday evenings next season ?

I thought that Fridays were now Premier League


I think that the fixture list is released on 22nd June

Want: Bristol City at home, they bring a good noisy support, almost a derby for them and should be 3 points to kick us off

Will get:  Leeds United away, played on some silly day at a silly time outside licensing hours - Sunday at 3am?

I think there are only 10 Friday night slots for PL games over the whole season, so I assume there will still also be Championship games on Friday nights.

We want someone really shit, shitter than us, because we are going to struggle to be fully prepared as usual for the start of the season.

Want - blast from the past - Sheffield Wednesday away.  Either them or Forest.

We will end up getting some non descript outfit like Huddersfield though to serve as a bleak reminder of where we find ourselves.

Want someone like Barnsley or Sheffield Wednesday away with a big allocation.

Will get someone nondescript like Preston at home.

Derby away. Midlands derby, two sleeping giants, against the manager who at one point was looking Villa bound.  All the boxes ticked :)

I will go for Leeds at home for the final league game.

It will be someone who will graphically illustrate our fall from grace - like Rotherham or Barnsley.

Leeds or SW at home would be good.
