Who do you want as our first game next season?

[BlueStar]

And who do you think it'll be?  Fancy a glamour tie, mix it with the big boys straight away, heaven or hell?  Some jaded strugglers like West Ham or the play-off winners in the hope of getting some early points under our belt?  The mackems? 

 

I'd quite like Spurs at home, no matter how shit we are we always seem to beat them and they seem to have a psychological thing about us being their bogey team.  Plus they have that old problem of playing blinders against top teams and then looking unmotivated against lower teams who then nick a result because they're more up for it.  If we got a result against them in their current high-flying form it'd be a great confidence boost, if we don't, well, we weren't expected to anyway - better than losing to Bolton or Wigan on the first day.

 

Reckon it'll probably be West Brom, just to keep us waiting that little bit longer to feel like we're back up proper.  That or Chelsea, they always seem to be our first/last/cup team.

[Ocho]

Any away trip please.

 

Bolton a couple of seasons was a cracker, pre-match and match.  My first away win in 4 years thanks to Oba.

Maybe it would be a good thing to get some of the big 4/5 (ManU, Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool, City). ManU for example are always quite poor for their standards at the start of the season (last season they lost to Burnley).

So I hope that we get ManU away at season opener.

As first home match I hope for someone like Stoke, Fulham or Bolton.

ManU for example are always quite poor for their standards at the start of the season (last season they lost to Burnley).

 

And the season before that we got a point at Old Trafford first game 

[garth]

I'd like it to be Man U, they never seem to start the season off very well and it would be a good boost for lads, to have a big win.

[Guest Roger Kint]

Blackburn away or mackems at home. Two teams i would love to beat early on

[gazza ladra]

Blackpool (H)

[Tsunami]

Hull home, with Brown back in charge.

[Incognito]

Last time we came up we had Spuds at home and we lost 1-0.

[Guest toonlass]

West ham

[Optimistic Nut]

I reckon it's nailed on to be Spurs away. Would love Villa at home.

Twat them 3-0 and sing "Where's your fucking, where's your fucking, where's your fucking banners now?"

[SEMTEX]

Portsmouth.

[La Parka]

West Brom at home. Cunts going down.

[Heron]

Villa/Spurs someone like that at home. Because I think we'll hit the ground running and then have trouble later on, and it would be great to beat a team like that at home because they're quite simply a bunch of twats.

[nufcmichael]

Stoke Away... !!!

[9]

Man city at home, 1-0 Ryan Taylor free kick

[madras]

honestly couldn't care less but i'd like to be at home firs,last and boxing day to make up for the last few years.

[macca888]

Start the season in style......................Mackems away......................3-0 to us.................Darren Bent Hat trick.................LOL

[NoU]

Would like one of the hardest games as the first (Arse/man/chel away). Maybe it's just me, but there seems to be more fluke results in the first game of the season than in any other game. Plus we can play them without having first realised how far behind the top of the premier league we actually are. Then second game an easy one at home (leicester ), to get a good start before reality and the inevitable bad run hits us.

[merlin]

Hammers at SJP will do - we need early results...

[Skeletor]

Blackburn at home.

[Keefaz]

Someone quite shit away, and then Arsenal at home.

[Guest firetotheworks]

Man United at home.

[Dave]

Someone rubbish at home. It's vital we get off to a decent start.
