Out now and are of course subject to change as the TV companies still need to select what matches will be shown. Obviously not a massive issue for us normally and even less so this season but some games are still shown on Alba.

We open with Dundee United at home followed by Dunfermline away and Morton at home before a trip to Brechin to round off August. Tough opening set of games.

Christmas will see us travel to Morton and Brechin before a New Year "Derby" v Livi.

Tough start.

Dundee Utd (H), Dunfermline (A), Morton (H), Brechin (A), St. Mirren  (A).

At least we'll know what type of a season we're in for early on.

Not the start we would have chosen. I know you have to play everyone at some point, but as a team undergoing rebuilding and with a new manager it would have suited us more for the big games to come a bit later when things have gelled a bit more.

That start demonstrates just how tough this division is going to be. We need to hit the ground running. 

Booked my trip to Scotland a few weeks ago hoping the draw would be kind, alas no game at TCS for me.  An away trip to Falkirk instead.

A replay of your last ICTFC match? Try to make it to a Dunfermline match away. The Bridies are the highlight of the Championship. 

Hey TopSix

My last match was our home win against St J last season.  

Thing is I will be at a wedding in Dundee on the day we play Dundee utd away and I won't be able to go.

Same result against Falkirk will do me fine.

Anyone know the best way of getting from Edinburgh Airport to Brechin?

Tram to Edinburgh gateway and change onto a service heading to Montrose then get a bus or taxi to Brechin.

I remember being at a wedding when an uncle tapped me on the shoulder and whispered "taxi'll be here in 2 minutes" and off we went to see the local team.

Nobody will notice if you disappear for a couple of hours - unless perhaps you are the best man. Or groom.

Hmmmm, how far away is Forbes of Kingennie from Tannadice?

not in the official party, but I am sure Mrs Gabby will notice and will be none too pleased.

It's about 7 miles or 15-20 minutes in a car, so not so easy - unless you can persuade the couple to switch the wedding to one of the pubs near the ground. Think of the money they'd save!

Edit to add: the name of this one confirms that it is very upmarket, and even has a function room! The broken windows might have even been replaced by the time the big day comes.

You might get a lift from one of us Lothians based guys. 

Brechin or Dunfermline I'm hoping to get to one of these games, Which one would you recommend as the best away day. I would quite like to try Brechin as I've never been there but what's it like for pubs etc

Cheers.  Hopefully, providing there are no delays, I'll be in both America and Glebe Park on the same day!

Charter a plane to the former RAF Edzell and get a taxi from there?

It's about £30-40 for car hire for the day plus fuel. 

Really depends how much free time you have regarding transport

 

Cannae wait to see ye all at EEP!

Not necessarily. If you remember we were languishing in mid table 12 points behind Dundee and there were calls for terry to walk in the first few months of our last foray down here. Cue 24 point swing. Champions in May.

It's not how you start in the championship. All about the run in. Sometimes it's better to chase early on and then peak post Christmas, keep off the radar early and once momentum kicks in let it go.

The playoffs are the minimum aim.

If it's the 26 August game, chances are I can pick you up. There's even a chance of Naelifts and his motor coming out of retirement for games like this so don't go booking anything just yet.
