English Football League fixtures released: All opening day fixtures ahead of football's return
Football’s (second) fixtures release day is upon us.
With the churn of the fixtures computer still winding down, fans of clubs up and down the country get to anticipate the return of the English Football League season.
Neither Fulham, Cardiff or Huddersfield will feature in the Premier League next season - with the fixtures for the top flight released last week.

And fans of the 72 sides not in the EFL need not worry, though; we have got you covered.
