| Budgie Derby on 10:31 - Jun 8 with 2416 views | TRUE_BLUE123 | Home game always seems to be Late September early October and away game late Feb. Maybe one day they will swap it and have us at Home 2nd. |  |

| Budgie Derby on 10:34 - Jun 8 with 2380 views | the_toff | I think it'll be early. September (h) and Feb (a) |  | |  |
| Budgie Derby on 10:45 - Jun 8 with 2338 views | StochesStotasBlewe | It’s never going to happen but would like to see the 3 o’clock kick off time return. September and February would be my guess. |  |
| We have no village green, or a shop.
It's very, very quiet.
I can walk to the pub. |

It seems to go in trends, around the late 2000s/ early 2010s we was always away in November/December and home in April. New trend next year, would love us to be away in August. |  |

| Budgie Derby on 11:07 - Jun 8 with 2250 views | Herbivore | Away derby for the opening game. Return fixture at PR in March. |  |

| Budgie Derby on 11:09 - Jun 8 with 2237 views | Bent_double | I would like the away game first, ideally 5-6 games into the season while they're still trying to get their new players to gel, then PR game in April as we're fighting for top 2, and they're battling relegation. Either that or Boxing Day and NYD... |  |

There's a 1 in 23 chance as I think we're away on the opening round. Guess that would be a Sunday midday. We'll know in 2 weeks. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

We used to play them at Easter. Indeed my first ever derby match was in 1954 and I believe it was on Easter Monday. A comprehensive 4 - 1 win. No doubt I will be corrected if wrong. |  | |  |

You do know the fixtures aren’t generated randomly as all sorts of caveats have to be considered are entered into a computer so no our opening day fixture isn’t a 1 in 23 chance of being one of the other teams in the league. Certain stipulations spanning the whole season may mean there are only a small number of sides that we can possibly play opening day. |  |

Even then it isn't random I'm convinced. The opening fixture of the season in all leagues tends to be a belter. Normally newly promoted club vs Arsenal incoming Leicester vs Ipswich opening day this year. [Post edited 8 Jun 2023 12:56]

Hope so, that's my birthday. Be nice to celebrate with a 5-0 thrashing of the budgie botherers. |  |
