    Just looking at the 24 teams next season and the regional split is as follows:

    North West - 2 (Bolton & Preston)
    Yorks & North East - 7 (Us, Sheff Wed, Sheff Utd, Leeds, Hull, Middlesbrough, Sunderland)
    Midlands - 6 (Wolves, Birmingham, Villa, Burton, Derby, Forest)
    South West - 2 (Cardiff & Bristol City)
    South East - 7 (Norwich, Ipswich, Reading, QPR, Fulham, Brentford, Millwall,

    In all my years following Barnsley I have only seen us play away at ten of those, although one of those was Ayresome Park - not been to the new Middlesbrough ground.

    Hard to see us replicating last season's away form but, to be honest, a massive improvement in the home form is more important. If we struggle to win at Oakwell again people are going to get a bit disgruntled.

    Thanks thats a handy guide :) - I've been to 12 of those away - 13 if you count Oakwell. Not that likely to add any new ones next season unless I go to Birmingham or Wolves

    I walked to em all. Backwards. Without stopping for a drink. While giving Dale Jennings a piggy back. At his heaviest.
