General musings :

Back in the EL potentially means loadsa sunday PL games at the business
end of the PL season. Possibly worse still if Spurs are in the PL hunt and the
broadcasters start rescheduling to suit their view count needs (think back to 2016) .

 

PL musings :

Nov 21 to Dec 26 is utterly nasty, and is where the Spurs PL campaign
IMHO will ultimately be decided (if not already totally derailed by then) .

Similarly for the period between Jan 27 and Feb 13.

The remaining clashes with last season top 6 are spread out after that.

 

Provisional season fixture blocks ( *** = not guaranteed)

September 12 - PL : Everton (H)
September 17 - EL : TBC (TBC) [ qualifier R2 ]
September 19 - PL : Southampton (A)
September 22-23 - League Cup : TBC (TBC) [ R3 ]
*** September 24 - EL : TBC (TBC) [ qualifier R3 ]
September 26 - PL : Newcastle United (H)
*** September 29-30 - League Cup : TBC (TBC) [ R4 ]

*** October 1 - EL : TBC (TBC) [ qualifier playoff ]
October 3 - PL : Manchester United (A)
October 17 - PL : West Ham United (H)
*** October 22- EL : TBC (TBC) [ group stage R1 ]
October 24 - PL : Burnley (A)
*** October 29 - EL : TBC (TBC) [ group stage R2 ]
October 31 - PL : Brighton (H)

 

Those first two fixture blocks could be horrendous on the travel side for
the EL / League Cup fixtures (depending on which are drawn as away) .

 

Updated current month fixtures (EL draw) .

EL disturbances to the PL fixtures : 1 (Soton game now on sunday) .

 

The Everton game is also on the Sunday 13th Sept.

Because if they can mess with our fixtures , why not start at the very beginning?

 

No EL related reason to move that fixture.
Therefore your point stands (especially for the broadcasters being utter c**ts) .

 

Millwall fans being racist twats on our forum: +1 on last season

 

Updated : League Cup R3 draw.

So technically four away games in a row, two overseas
(although if the Os prevail that will effectively be a home tie with no crowds) .

 

Which means we are going to Plymouth.

 

PL (like for like with 2019-20 after 1 game) : Pts = -3, GF = -1, GA = 1.

Begin as you mean to go on ??

 

Updated : League Cup R3.

 

Updated : EL.

 

PL (like for like with 2019-20 after 2 games) : Pts = 0, GF = 4, GA = 2.

 

Updated : PL fixture disturbances.

Accredited to EL (on the assumption broadcasters believe Spurs will have an EL tie on Oct 1) .

 

PL (like for like with 2019-20 after 3 games) : Pts = 1, GF = 5, GA = 2.

 

Doing better than last season huh?
Jose in!!!!

 

Two goals worse on GA ( < Jose out > ?? ) .
