So, as a thought excersis, what would a 'fair' fixtures list look like to you? And if you could write City's, what would that look like?

It would be fairer if it was delayed until at least some support was allowed in the grounds.

Same for everyone mate . They are all in the sane boat . Last two seasons a lot of dubious decisions went Liverpool’s way but we were still shit and didn’t deserve to win the title last season . This season now they have won the league it will be a level playing field . I’d more worried about our neibours tbh has there luck as been rising

Don't be silly, you just can't unfairly blame them. That goal Peter Crouch carried over the line at Stoke was decided by the rugby union authorities at Twickers.

You really believe a smaller club losing out on gate money leaves them on a level playing field with the bigger clubs? It's not just about us and the dippers.
 
What I noticed last season was how many times a team would play City then play Liverpool the following game but never the other way round.
I can't be bothered to check but I wonder if it's the same again this season
 
Looking at the fixtures is depressing, makes me feel like a losing contestant on Bullseye. "Let's see what you could have won"
 
Any ideas on what this “postponed” first fixture means ... are we playing it midweek a few days after the first weekend so is still our first fixture or is it going to hang on for a free mid week later in the season (don’t see any free one till like January in calendar) so we’d basically be one less game played all this while?

as far as I can tell from the release.

West Ham
City (H) - 24 Oct
Liverpool (A) - 31 Oct

Sheff Utd
Liverpool (A) - 24 Oct
City (H) - 31 Oct

Newcastle
City (A) - 26 Dec
Liverpool (H) - 28 Dec

Fulham
Liverpool (A) - 6 Mar
City (H) - 13 Mar

Leeds
City (A) - 10 Apr
Liverpool (H) - 17 Apr

Aston Villa
Liverpool (A) - 10 Apr
City (H) - 17 Apr

So 6 in total. 3 times first each, Liverpool have home games each time they play first, but only 1 out of 3 if they play second. We have home games 2 out of 3 times we play first, but are away each time we play 2nd.

What the fuck has peter crouch got to do with it? If you think English and European football is blissfully pure and not corrupt that’s up to you. I think the evidence suggests otherwise

Your beliefs are not evidence. There is too much incompetence to organise widespread corruption.

If it was incompetence then liverpool and united would get screwed over as much as us. When the long time head of the PL says publicly that it is “good for the PL brand” when liverpool and united win the PL, then it’s hardly hiding it, is it?

Rather get the away games out of the way mate

Definitely. More chance of fans being allowed in as the season goes on so this should give us an advantage if anything. Liverpool away first would’ve been perfect but there you go.
Decent run in, no “title deciders” in the last couple of months apart from Chelsea. Not bad tbh.

Incompetence doesn't have to average out over a season. You aren't guaranteed a quota of it. Even if every decision you disagreed with was given in favour of City, Liverpool would have still won the league. They were better than us.

It is good for the PL brand when different teams win it. That is a factual statement. People call the French and German leagues farmers leagues when one team wins all the time. That would mean we have been assisted for our title wins too, which I don't remember there being a suggestion of at the time.

You have no evidence that there is any clandestine methods being used to make us lose games from outside influences - we're more than capable of losing games without any help. Equally, I can't prove a false negative so you can carry on with your beliefs. But, I am saying - with conviction, that due to the incompetence that is evident in all aspects, football administrators and referees are not capable of organising a conspiracy on the scale (or a smaller scale for that matter) that is often suggested on this forum.

I think we’d have the table with us having a game in hand for a long while this season ... and by the time we actually get to play that game in hand, won’t be surprised if we have another in hand by then, lol ... would be nice to be top of the table with some lead despite still having that game in hand.
