The only difference being there isn't a mocked up picture of a guy carrying a wad of papers and the zoomifyed front page says **Confidenshul Fixture Lists SHHHH" on the front

Wasn’t that leak true ?

Supposedly it’s the leak first fixture of the season 

Looks like something I typed into Notepad

Literally anyone can go on notepad and do that

 

[Marmite]

I don’t ever recall a leaked fixture list the night before being right

No. It gets repeated every year and I don't think the fixtures it leaked have ever been the opening day ones.

 

I only recently discovered the Prem fixture computer thing is a bit of a myth. It's one bloke and a laptop working through the nuances.

At least the leak is in alphabetical order unlike the real fixture list.

Huddersfield away followed by Middlesbrough at home 

Ipswich away boxing day 

Sunderland home last day

It might surprise people to know the clubs only know about a hour before - one of the few organisation privy to the opening day fixtures are Sky, that’s about it.

Sheff Weds and Bristol City have to be at home, West Brom and Birmingham will both be away. So out of the four things they've managed to land zero. What an effort.

 

This would be a good opener though. I think they're a decent bet to drop.

[Raj]

 home on Sunday 12.30pm

[Royston.]

Ahh the anticipation of the fixtures of the championship season.

What time are they released?

[RowlattsFox]

Do they announce the first round of TV picks at the same? Like they did with the Premier League. Not sure if they have more games on TV because the Premier league hasn't started yet. 

 

Leeds will be Friday. 

Us, Southampton and Sheffield Wednesday will probably all be on too. 

[Collymore]

My prediction is Middslbrough home first game.

9am I believe. 

[Fox92]

I think I’ll always be excited for fixture release day.

I think this is when it'll hit home. I still can't quite believe it. 

 

We are (were) miles better than a good third of the division, if not half. We just needed a vaguely competent manager and goalkeeper.

That should have been entered as a not possible first game of the season but not sure about the brains at the EFL ……

There wasn't. Largely cos no fecker turned up in the Cov home ends and it was a noon kick-off.
