Recommended Posts

Same thing happened in 03/04. We were down at Molineux just two days after Mallorca, or something. Iirc anyway.

i rememebr beating coventry away 5-1 on saturday after a thursday night cupo winners cup game. no excuse though as there is a precedent as moving games away from the thursday.

So, anyone got the list of games on Sky and ESPN?

no.

 

Spurs - Home is the 5.30pm game on the Saturday

 

Everton away is moved to the following Monday at 8pm.

Man Utd at home is moved to the Sunday at 4pm.

Mackems away is moved to the Sunday at 1.30pm.

Liverpool away is moved to the Sunday at 4pm.

 

shafted straight away, chelsea is live on the 25th yet we have a europa qualifier on the 23rd. there is scope to move the qualifier to the wednesday but i wouldn't hold my breath.

Supporters will notice that our fixture against Chelsea remains scheduled for Saturday, 25th August, with our Europa League fourth qualifying round fixture on the preceding Thursday (23rd August).

 

Prior to the TV selections being made, and in accordance with normal procedure, the Club made an application to move the Chelsea game to Sunday, 26th August. Unfortunately the Metropolitan Police refused this request on the basis of other scheduled activities in and around London at this time.

 

The Club and the Premier League subsequently made representations to UEFA to request that our Europa League match be moved from the Thursday to the Wednesday in order to avoid the team having to play two games in three days. UEFA unfortunately rejected this request.

 

Sorry if you were forced to read them to see like :razz:

I was about to do my usual complaints, but just been putting these into my calendar and realised I'm at a hen do in Leeds when we play Spurs at home, so I'll now be able to see the match. :)

 

However I'm then at a wedding reception for Chelsea (A) which may cause problems. :shifty:

A UEFA spokesman told Press Association Sport: "In principle, UEFA is not in a position to change the requested fixture from Thursday to Wednesday or Tuesday.

 

"However, after the draw ceremony for the play-offs, if the opponent agrees to re-schedule the match date to the Tuesday, August 21 before 1830 CET, the UEFA Administration will be open to consider the request.

 

"Written approval is required from the opponent club as well as the respective national associations of both teams.

 

"Please note that should Newcastle United FC be drawn to play the match on August 23 and the opponent does not agree to change the match date, the match will be maintained as such."

Stepson got married the day we played The Boche in Euro 2000 (1-0, Shearer header  :snod:) - reception was held at the local CIU club, match on in the bar. There wasn't a single bloke in the function room including the groom :lol: . Best I've ever been to bar mine, we all piled in after the final whistle completely buzzing, total party atmosphere all night.

wirthout any form guide to go iff, ive jsut gone through every lge fixture and come up with 41pts.  Cant see us sustaining such good start as last year....29-Sep first probable win.(cant see villa being as bad as last year!).  next obvious win: 24-Nov, although west ham at home is a Should win, but fat sam will play stodge wall for 90mins.

 

Without a bigger team than last year we wont be able to maintain any lge form, and injuries will happen to our star players at some point.  Nine teams have differnt manager this year (inc the 3 promoted) so cant make judgment on how they will perform.  I suspect avb may struggle at spurs, but am sure he learned alot form chelski fiasco, and against the odds, could produce decent team. YEt another transition year from liverpool? or will it all fallinto place.

Sadly i think manu have improved in last year, they had some ave players....title wil be fight between chelsea and mancity this year.

 

Summary: Nufc  finish on 50+ pts= 9th spot.  last 16 uefa cup exit to porto
