Kopparberg Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 You never know what you’ll get with Wednesday. I’m sure last season we started well then lost at Hull (?) Just got to fight all the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How any football fan can come to the conclusion that it doesn't matter how the games are stacked up, when the fixtures fall and in what order they're in, is baffling really. Yes, I take your point, but some people look at that list where we've got some easy runs, and some difficult runs and conclude that we've been 'stitched up'. Looks like a pretty random list to me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradowl Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Daily Mail are reporting that every EFL game will be available to view from clubs own websites. A deal as been struck with Sky for this to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crookesowl Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 We need young, energetic and fit players to make this season work. December is punishing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just one of the things that went Leicester’s way when they won the league: gentle start got them some great momentum and confidence. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were top of the league last year after three of our first four games were against Reading, Barnsley and Luton (we really should've beaten Millwall as well). It went a bit downhill after that... But if you have an "easier" run of fixtures it stands to reason that these will be counteracted at some point by a hard run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming that all teams ha e the same amount of games, the opponents are nothing out of the ordinary. If the squad isn’t threadbare, it’s a month to make progress.
