Not a patch on Burton way is it.

More concerned about who our manager will be come kick off?


Wednesday NIL
 
Most teams take a few games to get into some kind of form so who knows what could happen (wishful thinking) We could just grab a few surprising points along the way .

Yeah I agree, I honestly think its a good time to play Lester and Im not just saying that cos we're playing them. Chelsea will by a WIP still and I can see us getting 3/4 points from those first 4 home games. That would be a very good return against those 4 teams.
 
Why cant the governing bodies of UEFA and the Premier League talk before releasing fixtures, to work out dates that are actually viable so they don't have to rearrange fixtures withing minutes of releasing the fixtures.

Little point, the majority of games will be moved for TV, not for European fixtures.
 
I don't mind Leicester first up, if Vardy, Mahrez or Kante leave, they may not have a replacement in yet - wishful thinking maybe.

Anyway, we got a decent draw against them in the League Cup last season when they played a decent side (Mahrez, Vardy, Drinkwater, etc.) so who knows.

Decent run in the middle of the season where we should be able to soak up points, and if it comes down to it, we face a few relegation 6-pointers at the end so things should still be in our hands by then.
Good time to get Leicester IMO... and Swansea.... after that.....:emoticon-0146-punch
 
I'm pretty happy with that start. A lot of teams with new managers, and a few who will have bought/sold a few. We then get the teams around our level after we've got going, and can hopefully get some points on the board.
 
unless we get shot of SB, we dont have much chance of avoiding a relegation dogfight next season.
 
Realistically what do we expect? I just hope we can finish above 3 out of (probably) Boro, Burnley, Bournemouth, Watford, Palace and Sunlan
