    Annoying that Liverpool n Wolves away are a week apart and Cardiff and Spurs away a few days apart.

    Great set of fixtures to kick off the season!

    Equally pleasing for the run-in too!

    Half of these games won’t even be played on these dates anyway due to sky and bt moving them to line their own pockets as usual.

    That fixture list has some very obvious similarities to last season. Kind start, open and close the season at home. When was the last time we had an away game last match of the season?

    Can I get in quick request for all those thoughtless ST holders who hoovered up all the Uddersfield away tickets to spare a thought for the northern exiles who didn't get a look in last season. I've only got three match up north, so give an old man a chance to get to this one. This request is sponsored by Help the Aged.

    ... at least half of them are at home, that's fair enough.

    Burnley are playing in the Europa on the Thursday before so it's highly likely the game will be moved to Sunday..........but my flight is at 14:15 so will miss the whole game <wah>

    Wait, I'm confused. SaintDon13 just posted that half of them are at HOME. You can't both be right.

    I can see plenty of Monday fixtures happening. If I am right, only one last season. Nobody really wants to play on a Monday evening but as Sky are paying for the EPL, someone has to, and so SFC are likely to play the likes of Palace, West Ham, Watford, Brighton and Bournemouth on those evenings.

    Are the “big clubs” banned from playing on Monday nights then because they’re to superior ?

    I know exactly what you mean though.
