I've heard we have Arsenal (A) first match of the season. Which should mean a possible (H) game last. Didn't want that.
Look what happened to Bolton though, played all the top 6 in the opening games and never recovered. A season can be built on a good start
This, Aresnal away is a VERY tough game. I hope we don't lose as first game of the season and you lose could set your season - like Bolton. HOWEVER if we get an 'easier' game after the Arsenal match & win I suppose that would be fine.
If Bolton were good enough to stay up they would have. There were still plenty of opportunities to win games despite having a tough start.
