Sibierski Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 Vast majority of big sides at home this side of Christmas, feels like we have to take full advantage of that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinkeye Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 I feel it is very clear that the Saudi's have been doing their bribing again. Shame on us. (Just getting in early before the mackems wake up) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PauloGeordio Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 That’s a good one. Home first, Boxing Day and last game. A good start to get some points on the board. Top 4 it is then Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Icarus Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 (edited) That 3 game run at the end of December aside, that's a very favourable set of fixtures throughout. Night and day compared to last season. Edited June 18 by Kid Icarus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 I was naturally just expecting Man City home and away the first two games, followed by Arsenal twice. So not too bad Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Night and day compared to last season. Hopefully the extra European fixtures are starting to bite for them at that point (as they did for us) and we can still have a relatively fit squad. Won’t Villa/Spurs potentially have play off games in Jan if they aren’t in the top eight of the new format? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beren Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 Cool. Strong home form to start the season will be tough (Soton aside). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bally21 Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 It seems as though 3 out of the 4 midweek fixtures are at home - bonus for our away support. Only midweek away is Liverpool. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallsendmag Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 I know we play everyone twice, but I actually quite like the look of that. We don't have what you'd call a really bad month where we play all the top teams and could potentially get into a bit of a rut. It's all spread out nicely.

Ronson333 Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 Were joint fifth favourites for the league at 25/1…With a decent fixture list and no European football, you never know 😀 Just don’t need Stuart Pearce tipping us again! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 We actually could be top after the first 5 games if everything falls into place. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colos Short and Curlies Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 Caveats on everyone playing everyone twice but that does look like a potential league winners spread of fixtures. decent run to the last week of September when with confidence Man City come to visit. Could be looking very good for an exciting season then Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bally21 Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 (edited) Looks like Southampton home game will be a 3pm KO - the sky website has Manure playing Fri PM, LiVARpool Sat 12.30, Villa game 5.30 sat, Brentford/Palace and Chelski/Citeh moved to Sunday, and Spuds Mon.

gbandit Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 I'm liking our fixtures a lot. Start off with a run of winnable games, get some momentum and then carry that through into the late stages of the season when we have two awful months, February and May Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Jinx Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 That's probably the nicest spread of fixtures we've had in many moons. Almost none of the other big teams are back to back for once. Real chance to be solid in the top 6 before Christmas. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
