Fixtures

[Dave-Vale]

Next seasons fixtures are released on Wednesday.

Who do you want first? Who do you want last? Who do you want on Boxing Day?

I've just seen a 'leak' and we have Gillingham away first game, apparently..

 

[JoeJoeJoeJoe]

Probably utter bollocks but wouldn't mind Southend at home.

 

[Cardsfan]

Bournemouth at home to United on the first day.

 

[TomPNE94]

Probably utter bollocks but wouldn't mind Southend at home.

Where have you seen that?

 

[JoeJoeJoeJoe]

Where have you seen that?

Twitter. Arsenal doesn't even have a capital letter. It's definitely bollocks.

 

[joethegill]

Both Bristol clubs at home on day one? Don't think so.

 

[TomPNE94]

Bristol City will be away first up. Any team having work done on a stadium is usually away so they get a few extra days in case there are any delays.

 

[PuB]

These things always come out preseason, and they're always bollocks.

Also, balloon fiesta usually sees City away from home, not to mention that we are never both at home on the same day - let alone against two well supported clubs such as Leeds and Luton.

 

[BCFC Jordan]

Yep, we won't be at home with the balloon fiesta on. Fake, which I'm sure will surprise you all.

 

[Dave-Vale]

What the fuck is the Balloon Fiesta?

 

[Westbars_Spireite]

Does anyone actually believe this sort of shite?

 

[Crewelad87]

Pretty sure Burton and Derby play at home on opposite weekends also as they share the same stewards, or at least used to.

 

[Crewelad87]

But I think I'm yet to see one of these "leaks" get a single fixture right, never mind all of them.

 

[TomPNE94]

Not sure but us and Blackpool definitely do.

 

[Dave-Vale]

Sharing stewards is tinpot.

 

[TomPNE94]

Sharing stewards is tinpot.

Not so much stewards but definitely Police Forces.

 

[UTS]

Bury share stewards with Man U.. kid you not we were playing Bristol Rovers and had to close a stand due to the stewards all being at Man U's CL game.

Anyway, yeah those fixtures are bollocks.

 

[PuB]

Sharing stewards is tinpot.

Believing crap fixture lists is worse...

 

[Dave-Vale]

Yeah because I said it was real.

In before 'Bury don't need all their stands because they have no fans'.

 

[UTS]

Yeah because I said it was real.

Vale are much the same

 

[Sire Speirite VIII]

Dave vale needs to give his arsehole a good polish these lists are rubbish and he's baught shame on port vale by witting this nonsence

 

[TomPNE94]

I saw Andy Tate stewarding at Oldham this season

 

[Dave-Vale]

I apologise profusely on behalf of myself and the entire club.

 

[JJH]

What the fuck is the Balloon Fiesta?

Ashton Court gets rented out and they let off a load of hot air balloon's, and then in the night they all come back and there's a night glow.

It's just basically a good excuse for a pissup.

 

[Camborne Gills]

As long as we are away to the Swine on a Saturday and not away to Millwall on Boxing Day, I don't care.

Booze and hot air balloons sounds like a deadly combination...

 

[blademan89]

Do they come out at 9am or 10am in the morning?

 

[Gashead]

9 I believe

 

[JJ1532]

Crewe Alex v Port Vale, opening day fixture. Holy shit! Then we have to wait until April for the return fixture. Thats an unusually large gap.

Well, our midweek fixtures are pretty horrendous. Tuesday away trips to Coventry, Burton, Colchester and Southend. All 4 are bad for different reasons. The first 2 because I'd have much preferred them on Saturdays. Last 2 because they are absolute treks.

Away on Boxing Day yet again, fantastic. Away on the final day against Fleetwood is pretty good I suppose.
