🗓 2022/23 Key Dates

Now the fixtures have been released for the 2022/23 League One season, it's time to get planning. Here are some of the key fixtures you've all been waiting for.

Opening and closing weekend 

The Grecians will open the season with a trip to Lincoln City at the LNER Stadium. It will be our first trip to the venue since 2019 when Matt Jay scored a stunning free kick in a 1-1 draw. Lincoln will begin the new season with a new manager following the departure of Michael Appleton, with former Cardiff and Wolves man Mark Kennedy appointed in May.

We end the season at home to Morecambe, currently managed by Derek Adams. The Shrimps ascended to League One two seasons ago, winning the play-offs at Wembley against Newport County.

Local matches

Following the West Country's domination of League Two, we will of course be joined by Forest Green Rovers and Bristol Rovers in the third tier this year. Adding to likes of Plymouth Argyle and Cheltenham Town, we have a lot more local fixtures this time round.

New Ground visits

Derby County's Pride Park is the only ground in League One that the Grecians have never played at. That fixture takes place on Tuesday October 25. 

Christmas and Easter

Christmas has been relatively kind to the Grecians in terms of travelling once again, with City hosting Portsmouth on Boxing Day. We travel to Bristol Rovers on Thursday December 29, and we're away to Oxford United on New Year's Day.
