this best not be a wind up

It's not. The first day fixtures are always revealed by PA at 8.30 as a taster.

I've posted them here for the last couple of seasons.

And yes, it's the ninth - the first day of the season this year - was looking at 2007 calendar!

I remember we knew about QPR home last season at least an hour before the full fixtures were released so no reason to doubt fixit!

Now let's wait for the rest...

Got a mate at the Evil Post and he's just told me they know all the fixtures in readiness for printing but sworn to secrecy and wouldn't confirm or deny that it was Blackpool

I guess you're right about posting the first day fixtures in the past at about this time. Blackpool away it is then, suits me :)

Exactly Nibor. Crikey, the fixture computer has been rather kind to us where trips to Bloomfield Road are concerned over the last 2 seasons.

Last season it was game 2 and now game 1!

Not so long ago a match at Blackpool would constitute a Saturday so cold that one would have to wear two pairs of pants in order to stop ones nads disappearing up inside ones body.

If this is true then thanks for spoiling it for those that wanted to wait untill 10.

That is a priceless comment. What does it matter if you know now then at 10? I'd hate to have seen your reaction when you were told father christmas wasnt real....................

I can not believe my luck, i put a post on one of the other topics that a load of us were in blakpool that weekend on a mates birthday and was hoping for blackpool, preston or burnley. To get Blackpool is unbelievable, was almost resigned to the fact i would have to wear my city shirt in tower lounge while watching soccer saturday, not anymore. wooooooooo hoooooooo.
