Wolves? Really? They've been playing awesomely, I think that would be like playing an established mid table premier league team. Agreed with others, let's play a big club and get it done. Arsenal perhaps.

I think it could be Brighton. Of course it is purely by chance.

Optimistic as ever |

Someone like Watford or Huddersfield. We can play Man City when we're 10 points off the relegation places. 1 more season looking over our shoulder or trying to climb out of the bottom 3 is going to kill off half our crowd!

I generally feel 2 things happen at the start of the season - the big boys, even if they have a stuttering start, tend to win the first game regardless. They play awful for 90 and then get a dodgy penalty or something. It just seems opening weekend is heavily in their favour. Of course all the media want to talk about United/Chelsea/City/Liverpool being on 3 points after weekend 1 and speculate it could be the closest title race yet...not that I'm suggesting anything dodgy of course ;-) Second thing I find is the promoted clubs play with no fear and still on a high from automatic promotion or play off win. You want you get them a couple of months in ideally. So I'd say a Watford or West Ham or Huddersfield at home would be best. Then second game the City away game. Like I say, they're almost destined to win their first game but if they are to have a slow start to the season it will be the second or third game the big boys start to faulter if they're going to have a disappointing season, like Chelsea this year.
