I've just sync'ed our EFL fixtures to my Google calendar. It was quick and easy (even for me!). I haven't managed to get this to work... any tips? It says it has done it, but the calendar hasn't appeared. It took a while for my calendar to sync up |

Admit it Jared, you heated the balls What he does at home is his business  That is a superb draw for us. Away (which is a bonus in terms of getting the ground ready) and a big club! |

Admit it Jared, you heated the balls Not quite, since we literally just missed out on Swansea. But close, so close. It’s my second most visited stadium and Cardiff is a great city for an away day. And the Cardiff City Stadium is a current international stadium |

Bristol rovers on boxing day, what the hell is that all about? Utter nonsense. Was really looking forward to that particular trip, hope it gets postponed.

The Carabao cup match against Cardiff City will bring back memories for Matt Gray having joined them as a young player when he left Spurs.

You say that but does it even make sense anymore beyond local football? The idea is surely to pair teams whose fans can reach the game on a day there is very little public transport, ensuring a bumper crowd. If this can't be achieved I'd argue its detrimental. Anyway, it is what it is, just gutted to miss out on what was my number 1 most anticipated away trip. There are plenty of other good ones. |

If i remember rightly FGR away was the first away game of our last few seasons in the National league. Forest Green was also our first away game of the 1999/00 Conference season - then they were playing at their previous ground, the game was abandoned as the floodlights went. |

I can't see how the EFL can do that. I mean, they have 72 clubs to plan for who obviously have a bigger fan base than most non-league teams. They will never be able to appease all 72 clubs.
When you put the boot on the other foot Sutton are at home to Exeter on New Year's Day.
