Doncaster Rovers discover early season fixture tweak after Sky Sports reveal EFL TV picks

Grant McCann's side return to League One after a title-winning 24-25 campaign last time out. After a profitable summer that's seen eight new faces arrive, there's plenty of excitement among the fanbase ahead of the new season. Now, a week after their entire fixture schedule was released, Rovers fans have learned the finalised dates and times of their opening two months of games. And just one of their first ten outings, just one has been moved.

That's the much-anticipated South Yorkshire derby at home to Rotherham United. The grudge match, which will see the two teams meet for the first time in three-and-a-half years, still takes place on Saturday, August 30. But kick-off has been moved forward to 12.30pm for live Sky coverage. Meanwhile, fixture tweaks up until early January will be announced by the broadcaster on Thursday, July 31.
