    Exeter away would be a good one. Cambridge away. Reading home or away would almost certainly be the biggest crowd of the day. Looking at the table, I think it's fair to say we are certainly the biggest club in the division.

    Burton away, a 15 minute drive for me

    I would say Bolton are the biggest club in the division.
    they will likely have bigger attendances than us this season.
    They've won more silverware - winning the FA cup 4 times

    They've spent a total of 73 seasons in the top flight, which is the 12th best of all clubs.

    We've only spend 17 seasons total in the top flight, the joint 41st best.

    The only thing we beat them on is our ground is slightly larger, if you count the red bit, which will probably be closed anyway.
    And Cardiff as a city is bigger than Bolton, but that doesn't seem a sensible metric to me

    This is the danger when you get stuck in league 1. In years gone by almost no one would have said Bolton weren't a bigger club. You quickly get forgot about.

    Blackpool have played in top flight football for 29 seasons, and have the same FA cup record as us.

    Only fixture I've any interest is in Blackpool away.

    Cambridge got relegated and are in league 2 next season. Looking at it practically, with a long run without a win to end 24/25, I’d say away against the smallest minnow in the division because I don’t want to hear the media saying things like Cardiff’s winless run extends to a dozen matches.

    If it's like last year, we'll play the three promoted teams in the first six games.

    I just noticed Sunderland lost their last five league games before winning the playoffs.
