Brentford fans are delighted to be handed a trip to Sheffield United on the season opener.

The Bees travel to the League One champions on August 5 and, for many supporters, they are already working out hotels to have a weekend in the Steel City.

The second game, and home opener, will see Mark Warburton return to Griffin Park with Nottingham Forest and fans are happy that the fixture is early in the campaign.

Fixture lists are never going to be perfect though and the fanbase are split after west London derbies against QPR and Fulham are back to back.

Brentford are at home over Christmas week and supporters are glad they don't have to travel across the country to follow their team.

Sunderland is likely to be the trip earmarked by many Brentford fans, given the fact it's a new ground.

However, there is a twist as the contest clashes with the fifth round of the FA Cup and if either side progress that far then the contest will be moved.
