    Looks likely to be at home!

    The weekend that the season kicks off is the same weekend that the balloon festival at Ashton Court will be taking place. I dont think they would have a City game going on at the same time as the balloon festival as traffic and parking would be chaos.

    Of course we both may be away but its more likely that we will be at home!

    So who do you want 1st?

    League 2 teams for next season... (Play off final is Wycombe vs Southend, so the loser will join the list below)

    Accrington
    Barnet
    Cambridge
    Carlisle
    Crawley
    Dag & Red
    Exeter
    Hartlepool
    Leyton Orient
    Luton
    Mansfield
    Morecambe
    Newport
    Northampton
    Notts County
    Oxford
    Plymouth
    Portsmouth

    For the travelling fan it looks pretty good. Lots of local derbies, quite a few trips to the south east. Carlisle's a drag and so is Hartlepool... otherwise not too bad...

    Yeovil at home would be a cracking 1st game of the season!

    Boreham Wood......Oh, hang on a minute,..... seriously though if we are going to be at home then someone who is crap and will have a long journey to make, Hartlepools or York maybe ? just so that we can for once get away to a flyer.

    Ditto

    All I'm hoping is Plymouth away will be a spring or summer fixture.

    Love it. Great attitude to have. "I dont care who we face, we will beat them anyway. F**k it, play against 2 teams at the same time and we will still win."

    Love it AMOT <applause>

    That's exactly what I meant! Although now I think about it I'd love us to have an early chance to end our losing run against Accrington.

    Yes we are away when the Balloon Festival is on

    In my opinion I never want City to play a promoted team (though obviously that's us this season). So no-one will want to play you or Barnet.

    I reckon you will get Luton at Home (though in some ways it would be good to get Mansfield and hammer them to exorcise some demons)

    I've heard a rumour that City wont be playing any home games until at least September due to the stadium build so I dont know how that will affect your lot.
