Hate to say it and get us all confident and stuff...but looking at the fixtures by the time we get to the Scum on the 28th October we should really have amassed a fair few points. Let's hope we're fit and ready this time because we need to pick up points early against the weaker teams rather than throwing them away like we did last season.

Looking at fixture list we have fairly tuff run in at end of season! But apart from that fairly happy with it!

i love the fact that we dont have 2 'big games' in 2 weeks, every time we play a top 4 we have have a lower tier team the week after!

Seems to be a big gap around new year...is that supposed to be there?

It's a 2 week gap. Seems a bit odd if that is correct unless they are planning a 2 week break for PL clubs. :shrug: Or maybe a gap for FA Cup matches.

Away first and last game then which I suppose means the nomads are home for the first and last game.
You'd think it'd be start home finish away or vice versa.
We've been away first game for the last four years and six out of the last seven years how random is that?

we could rack up a fair amount of points in the first 10 games. Defintiely an easier first 10 than last season.

no midweek games early in the season - shame cos warm summer evenings are good for football

ok maybe not last seaason :)

i make it we got 11 pts from the equivalent six games we start with last season - we´ll do very well to match that

probably our aim at this stage realistically is to hit that average thru the season giving us about 70 pts

the reality mmmmmm

This list is similar to last season. The last game of the season. Fulham at christmas time and Chelsea around my birthday. Theres nothing to read into these fixtures at all though. The 3rd game is the only one is see as a real tough one, considering its the 3rd inside a week at the start of the season.

ps - I like how they make the Norwich friendly seem like they're our 1st game.

i love the fact that we dont have 2 'big games' in 2 weeks, every time we play a top 4 we have have a lower tier team the week after!

Arsenal then Liverpool?

Can we clear something up then - are we actually allowed to discuss any team playing any other team as, considering all sides 38 games have been drawn, we mention any team -v- any other team and we're apparently in breach of copywright? :shrug:

Surely the copywright only exists on the full fixture list?

Yeah the copyright is only for displaying the full fixture list I believe.
