Looks like everyone has to play everyone else home and away during the season. So predictable

Just like we get this post every season, So predictable.

I think you always want to get off to a fast start and you want a favourable run-in.

We play a 'big 6' team once in the first 11 games and it's at home, and we don't play any of them in the last 6 games.

Don't think we could have asked for much better than that.

Id be really really surprised if we dont lead the league before our first Liverpool game in November.West Ham is a good opponent in the first game and then we should be quite ready for Tottenham in our first home game.

Its definitely on the cards. Apparently Inverness and St Andrews too staying with his relatives

Inverness is a bit of a schlep pal, I’ve never been but it’s off the beaten track, St Andrews (again not been) looks good especially if you play golf and it’s picturesque on the telly when the golf is broadcast from there.

Is the first home game date/time set in stone?
Looking to book train.

Why are we playing Wolves twice in the first round of fixtures (first 19 games) and then don't play Sheffield United till the next half of the season, and obviously play them twice in the second half of the season?

That is unusual although Sheffield is the game after the 2nd Wolves game.

No ... it will most certainly move for TV ... tv dates for aug/sep games out on 5th July!

January and May are both interesting times for the scouse ****s.

Unsurprisingly - when they will have no Champions League fixtures to test their squad strength.

I see we play EFC on New Year's Day. Last time we did that we never scored another home goal for the rest of the season.

It's free accommodation. I'm sure there will be pubs. I'm happy.
Btw I had to Google what schlep was.
