Tuesday 18th June - Fixture Release

[LangleyBlue1970]

Random computer generated fixtures my arse.

Last fixture of January and all of February against potentially all the top 6 sides.

I've not looked but i bet Arsenal, rags or Scousers have got a run of 6 games like that!!

Scouse have Chelsea, Arsenal and Spurs in their last 5 games of the season.

When is the community shield game vs the rags?

10 August

 

[69FACUPfinal]

With the new format if we finish in the top 8 there will be no champions league games in February as both our knockouts will be in march I believe

Cheers, this is good. I am not up to speed yet with the new CL format.

The last time we started a PL season with a home match was on the 13th August 2016 against Sunderland.

They are really taking the piss with our opening matches, especially when we are the Champions.

Sure the rags got a newly promoted club more often than not.

Wankers

I wonder why they've picked the rags to kick things off.

Either one of two things.

They think they'll challenge for the league

Or

They want to show eggheads slow painful demise.

The hope of a league table with them top.....full of sound bites for the rags to win the title in August again.

 

[69FACUPfinal]

Scouse have Chelsea, Arsenal and Spurs in their last 5 games of the season.

Not tempting fate, but irrelevant for them as I see Arse and maybe maybe Chavs as main competition- they had started to gel a bit towards season end....

Dips will be up there but not main challengers. They can damage Arse though if it's at Klanfield.

 

[Inter Me Nan]

Tricky run from 25/1 to 25/2 but nice run in again.

 

[bluealf]

) but what has always stood out is that Rags never ever get an horrendous run of tough fixtures -

Still shit and still finished 8th or whatever lol

 

[Claytop]

Fairly certain we ask/request for the 1st game to be away from home.

End of March is strange. International break 22 March. But then no PL fixtures on 29 March - reserved for FA Cup QF with PL played in the midweek following.

I guess it will serve as a winter break for some

and PL finishing after FA Cup is just wrong. Also just gives 6 days between last match of the season and CL Final - note to squad - don't plan any parties until June.
