The club has announced the date for the fixtures to be revealed in the Championship for next season as 21st June.
Obviously, it’s not the club’s call and is instead down to the league but, even so, it’s a reveal for many of us to note down in our diaries.
Hopefully by that point, too, we’ll be looking forward to the new campaign with some fresh faces at the club and the arrival of a Kyle Bartley or Abel Hernandez would do nicely.
Whilst we wait to see if that happens, though, let’s take a look at our fans’ reactions to the news:

The Verdict
There’s still a bit of rawness about last season that’s for sure but if we can have a good summer then that will ease tensions.
Heckingbottom still has work to do but at least once the fixtures are announced we’ll have an idea of what sort of start we’re going to have.
