So, tomorrow at 9am next years fixtures are out, and every year we get a report that they have been leaked, and it is so and so, and is always wrong, i had my ouija board out last night and it told me, Home to Arsenal, first fixture

“That’s a joke son, I say, that’s a joke.” “Nice boy, but he’s sharp as a throw pillow.” “He’s so dumb he thinks a Mexican border pays rent” “ “Son… I say, son, some people are so narrow minded they can look through a keyhole with both eyes.”__ Forhorn Leghorn

Nope.

My first analysis involves three stages:

1. First few fixtures (season start)
2. Last few fixtures (potential relegation battles)
3. General distribution of opponents (Mental Health preparation for any barren spells or disconsolate months).

Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!

That sums me up as well Nick. I have to say I was pleased when I first saw this last season's run-in.

I would like Bournemouth away first game as apposed to New Year’s Eve like last season, but then it would be more popular and I wouldn’t be far enough up the pecking order to get a ticket this time, so sod that, anyone at home will do

According to some of the 'leaked' opening day fixtures, we've got Chelsea at home . . .

I’ve got an end of August bank holiday away trip, so I’m hoping Palace are away as well then a couple of weeks around October time I’m out the country. Got my fingers crossed that I don’t miss too many home matches. My Mrs doesn’t understand :-)
