The Addicks face a tough start to the 2015/16 campaign.

Their opening fixture will see them entertain Queens Park Rangers at The Valley, a game which must be a prime contender for live screening by Sky.

Guy Luzon’s men then face two tricky games in the East Midlands, they visit Derby on Saturday 15 August,  then Nottingham Forest on Tuesday 18 August, before playing promotion favourites Hull City at the Valley on 22 August.

Charlton will have a long journey to Bristol City on Boxing Day, before Valley fixtures against Wolves on 28 December and Forest on 2 January, complete their Christmas holiday schedule.

The run-in will  see the Addicks travel to Bolton on Tuesday 19 April and Leeds on Saturday 30 April, with Brighton and Burnley visiting The Valley on Saturday 23 April and Saturday 7 May respectively, to complete the campaign.

Travelling fans have been served up some difficult midweek journeys. As well as Forest and Bolton, they will have to go to MK Dons on 3 November, Huddersfield on 12 January,  Preston on 23 February and Ipswich on 5 April. All midweek games will be played on a Tuesday.

A complete list of fixtures can be found on the club’s website.

The season will kick-off on Saturday 8 August……….or perhaps Friday 7 August!
