Fixtures Calendar - 2021/22

[youngbob]

As much as it's always a case of us playing every team twice, home and away, I do always look to see if there are any months where we'll struggle to have a "rest" for a Premier League fixture. Obviously games will be rearranged as the season goes on, but no single month looks like it's stacked full of games that are must-win and that we'll have to be 100% ready for.

January looks to be our toughest test - with Arsenal (a), Chelsea (h), then Southampton (a). And there's a tough run at the end of February going into March, where we have Spurs (h), Everton (a), then United (h), but we'll be months into the season by then and things will have really changed. The big boost for me is our last four games - if we need to win all four, we've got a good chance.

 

[Champions Again Ole Ole]

As the transfer windows closes the end of Aug, no chance he will be sold to us before the first fixture

If the deal doesn't suit us, we'll walk away. There's no chance we don't go into the first game with our squad for the season. If Kane comes with complications, we'll get Haaland

i wonder what the odds were of pulling out that start,,anyone would think its rigged, cherry picked

I just knew somebody would complain.

Six seasons ago. It stinks. The Champions should begin their defence of the title at home first game! Five fuckin' seasons the Rags have had a first home game leg up!

Given the rags home record last season they'd have probably preferred an away game to start with.

Well we didn't sign Dias until after the season started and if City want Kate missing a few games won't be a deal breaker

Horrendous start, we never get a home game 1st

Well technically last year.... although the game was immediately postponed. I know there was a run of seasons that the league winners started at home the following season, I don't believe since 2012 we have ever done that. That being said my guess is that we asked for an away start

Every year, lmao.

If we have a comfortable start, someone complains about a hard finish.
If we have a comfortable run-in, someone complains about a hard start.
If we have a comfortable start and run-in, someone complains about a tough winter period.

The only really tough sequence there is Chelsea and Liverpool away in successive weekends with a CL group match in between. I prefer the tougher aways early on tbh.

Plus we have never won at the spurs new ground.
