even though its Euro weekend - good to see Div1 and Div2 fixtures still on

Saturday 5th September

Newport County

for the record - fixtures 19 & 20

Saturday Sunday + BH Monday

29 Aug 15 09:23
so Monday clear as Coventry ....

Sunday choice of Swansea or Southampton - both are relatively far from other teams ... and i suspect both will come up again

so easiest is to choose Southampton - most likely to get a ticket too !!

Big choice again on Saturday

chance of doing Derby Leeds at noon and getting elsewhere if I left the ground after final whistle again ....

Looking at the fixtures you could get to Forest for 3pm - either with a driver or with a motorbike - however - that wouldn't follow the strategy of sticking to Div1 & Div2 on Saturday's

So looking whats on offer - it looks like Morecombe is the one

Miles from other teams too


Saturday 29th August

Morecombe

Sunday 30th August

Southampton

Monday 31st August

Coventry



Coventry is match number 18

Sat Sun Mon

22 Aug 15 10:56
so ... another weekend

looking at the fixtures - its Arsenal on Monday

Sunday - already done West Brom - so left with Everton or Watford

I'll go for Everton as Watford on TV on Sunday 27th September


Today - Saturday
back to Div1 and Div2

just had a quick look at who has non Saturday Tuesday matches set up
Bradford Shef United Southend Newport
not many !

Looking down the list - southern based looking at Portsmouth or Yeovil

I'm thinking Portsmouth more likely to potentially be on TV at some point

so Yeovil it is

Saturday 22 August

Yeovil

Sunday 23 August

Everton

Monday 24 August

Arsenal

Southampton Europa

18 Aug 15 14:51
Just discovered that with Southampton in the Europa League - some of their Saturday fixtures have been moved to Sunday

Just the ones whilst they're in the competition

One to watch out for .... and one to consider if more clubs make it next season

mid weekers

18 Aug 15 13:35
so - mid week again

always going to be hectic at the start

lots on tonight - but on the basis its difficult to plan to far ahead i'm sticking to similar basic rules

Div 1 and Div 2 where possible
teams who are most remote from others are less likely to offer 2 in a day

So - on that basis

Tuesday 18th August

Plymouth

Wednesday 19th August

Doncaster

The 4 matches in the Championship look good candidates for TV cameras on a Sunday
Only 6 games on Wednesday - and did Wigan at the weekend too


So - will be up to 10 games by 19th August - first game on 7th August (13 days)

Any insight from anyone reading this - feel free to add comments

so - a few games on today

5 down so far

prem 1 - WBA
champ 1 - Preston Brighton
div1 - none
div 2 exeter & notts

i think there is something about trying to keep all divisions relatively similar - so div1 today

Barnsley
Blackpool
Bradford
Bury
Millwall
Oldham
Peterboro'
Port Vale
Scunny
Shef United
Southend

11 fixtures - with Wigan playing tomorrow

so - take off who plays games on a Wednesday
Donny and Wigan play on Wednesday 19th - but both aren't on this list
Southend have a Friday night game on Dec18 - so not them
All the other fixtures are still Saturday and Tuesday

10 left

does it matter who is left in the league cup ??? not sure
Oldham played on a Wednesday night in the Capital One cup - so lets take them out too

9 left

research:
last season Scunny played all games on a Saturday or Tuesday- except over Xmas and Easter
Barnsley same - all Tuesdays
Port Vale - same

ok .... so take out teams who i think might do well this season
bradford shef united - possibility of live game at some point ?

I think its Scunthorpe on the basis of
few clubs nearby
going to end season middle to bottom of the table

Saturday 15th August -
Scunthorpe

Sunday ....

Options here
City are playing at 4pm and I reckon I could do either Wolves 12/00 or Wigan 12/30 kickoff and get to the City game on time - with a driver ... or on a motorbike

I'm not going to be greedy

Lets just say

Sunday 16th August
Wigan

Monday 17th August

Liverpool

So - the FA Cup weekends are set-a-side as

R1: 7 November
R2: 5 December

R3: 9 January
R4: 30 January
R5: 20 February
R6: 12 March

SF: 23 April
Final: 21 May

As of now - all the teams in Div 1 and Div 2 have...

7 November blank - understandably - as they'll all be playing
5 December blank - not sure how many will have been knocked out ... and therefore will have either a free weekend - or may look to rearrange

All of them have games on 9 January - as there will only be 20 teams max making it through to play with the Premier League and Championship teams - 20 out of 48 ... could and probably will be less with non league teams in the draw

Teams in the Championship and Premier League have ...

9 January blank- it looks like fixtures have been moved on to the midweek

30 January is blank for the Premier League - but is scheduled in for the Championship ! Premier League have had the games moved on to the 2 February

20 February is also blank for the Premier League teams  - but fixtures are in place for the Championship

12 March has fixtures for Championship and Premier League

one to watch
