We had some posts over the past few weeks, that at the start of each season the PL Winners always played at home.
Where did that idea come from ?
I`ve never read anything about it,but some people thought otherwise.
Have to ask as my previous thread has been pulled by a MOD,but I put it in a slightly different context. lol

I checked on PL site some months back and quoted all the relevant PL fixture rules. There has never been a rule that the PL Champions play their first match at home. People think there is because historically this is what happens.
 
Having done a quick appraisal, I can only come to one conclusion.

CHAMPIONS!

Allowing for the usual peaks and troughs, there is no horror run of games and I so badly want to smash the cnuts from Swansea.

Even got the national anthem banned at play-offs.

One of my early games in early 1980s was I think us beating them 4-0 at Maine Road?

I'll take 6-0 on the opening day, sun shining...prob get moved for TV, though!

A tough run of games and I'll be over there to see them! Oh my so happy with the draw!
 
I think our fixtures are pretty good!

Lets win the premier league next season!

Let's just sign a few players like Sanchez and others and have a good pre-season.

And we can do it!
 
Both Liverpool away games are when I'd be at uni, happy with that. Quite like the fixtures this time round.

Unless we have complained to the PL,or Mr "Fix It" Bernstein from the FA has intervened ?? lol
 
Official site, Apparently we're playing united at midnight for the community shield Aug 7th ;S should be interested. Anyone for a Horlicks?
