Slightly off topic but the FA have done something right - the FA Cup Final will be played one week after the season has ended, on Saturday May 17

Moyes has a more difficult start

Away to Swansea
Home to Chelski
Away to Scouse 1
home to Cardiff
Away to us

That would never have happened if the old soak was still in charge, coincidence? ;-)

Second year running that we have got a very decent lot of fixtures, easy-ish start, good Xmas games and easy final 4 games.

Good fixtures at the times that really affect the momentum of the league.


Over the swamp however Moyes has the baptism of fire from hell, arguably the worst opening set of fixtures I have seen for that lot ever. Pressure could be well and truly on within 5 games!

I feel sorry for him...... NOT!

For anyone else who was wondering, according to Twitter 8 July for Sky to announce their fixtures.

Good start and end to the season overall. December has a few tricky games but generally the big games are spaced apart.

Only slight downside is that all the big games we have in the second half of the season are away from home, Chelsea apart. Just need to ensure we win all the home ones in the first half of the season.
