Then Liverpool home - he’s been spot on last few seasons with first few games - nice easy six points ha ha 

On the plus side, anything above 1 point in those first 2 games is an increase on last season.

Dec 13th away

Mar 21st home

Why modern day football is shite #1043: why can’t we all just get that excitement of fixtures being released and all seeing it at the same time like a cup draw. You just know all the ‘leak’ rumours have already started then some journalist will release the full lot at 8:40am then all the other journos will start tweeting bits out.

Man U.  Away.  At Christmas time.  As sure as death and taxes that one. 

[Gaztoon]

Sickening start that.

[Pokerprince2004]

Same every year, lots of leaks beforehand then when 9am comes its a completely different set of fixtures. If first two are Villa and Liverpool though that's a pretty brutal start

Hope it’s better than the last time we played them on a 4.30pm slot on the bank holiday in August.

[NUFCDoog]

That's a brutal start, but can be good to play a team like Liverpool early, especially at home.

 

Could be like the Sir Bobby days in terms of points in mid September mind if we don't start well, be all good though.

[STM]

Not sure how anything can be a sickening start when we are one of the best sides in the league.

 

For every so-called tough set of fixtures there must be an easy set. 

 

We beat Man Utd, Spurs and Arsenal away in the space of a week. We are capable of anything.

 

A couple of signings wouldn't go amiss though.

The leaks morning of are usually right, especially the ones in here.

We do not speak of that.

[NWMag]

Tough start but could be good to get some of the tougher games out the way before the CL starts, I’d much rather play a Wolves or Burnley after a mid week CL match than a villa or a liverpool

[STM]

Also I echo the above, we are way more likely to do well against good sides in the first couple of games.
