The 2022/23 season for Bristol City and Bristol Rovers will begin in July, the EFL has confirmed. The mid-season World Cup in Qatar has forced the campaign to be remapped, meaning the season will get underway on July 30.
Fixtures for the new campaign will be released on Thursday, June 23, with a hiatus planned for the Championship from November 13 to December 9 while the tournament takes place in the Middle East. League One and League Two, though, will continue as usual – with games to be postponed on an ad-hoc basis in line with current international fixture protocols.
The season will conclude on May 6, 2023, with the play-off finals to be played over the bank holiday weekend at the end of the month.
