2012/2013 Fixtures

[london blue 2]

I think we can legitimately complain that we are playing all the top 6 sides from last season AWAY

I think someone should start a new conspiracy thread, it's been a while :)

[kinkylola]

the only concern I have is Jan/beginning of Feb being a little tough with ACoN going on (= no yaya/kolo). But from March onward ... I would say we have a pretty decent run down the home stretch, with only a game away to manu where we may not be favored from the start.

These fixtures will change as the chumps league comes out though and it will be interesting to see how that fits with the prem.

[Tesl]

Ha, rags are away after 5 out of 6 Chump's Lg games ! We have got their fixtures!

Awesome!

Last year it felt like all the small advantages ended up going their way, and already its beginning to feel like it might be more our way this year. I'm really optimistic for next season, can't wait for it to start!

[Chinners]

Home to one of the promoted teams again

<ahem>

[southern softy]

I'm quite happy with ours. Rags have got it worse. Away to blue scouse for their first game, and then chelsea and arsenal in their final run in.

rags also have a difficult Sep/Oct:
Liverpool (A)
Spurs (H)
Newcastle (A)
Stoke (H)
Chelsea (A)
Arsenal (H)

[ant london]

Just a point but rather than discard the current fixtures tab on here, shouldn't it be kept somewhere, as a shrine to our 1st Prem Lg win ?

second that!

[Beeks]

Rag run in

Sunderland (A)
City (H)
Stoke (A)
Villa (H)
Arsenal (A)
Chelsea (H)
Swansea (H)
WBA (A)

[Duckman]

our games after CL clashes:

22/9 - Arsenal H
6/10 - Sunderland H
27/10 - Swansea H
10/11 - Spurs H
24/11 - Chelsea - A
8/12 - Rags - H

[Blue Blood]

Easily the best set of fixtures for us for years!

Xmas/January a typically dodgy time for us looks a doddle! If the players put a shift in like last year we should make it championship number 4.

our games after CL clashes:

22/9 - Arsenal H
6/10 - Sunderland H
27/10 - Swansea H
10/11 - Spurs H
24/11 - Chelsea - A
8/12 - Rags - H

Very tough, but at least they're at home this time.

[Wonderwall]

I wouldnt have minded getting everton early doors, they are notoriously shite starters. However, mustn't grumble. I will await sir bacon chops conspiracy rant, coming soon to a screen near you.

[PeterParker]

Looks like the same scenario from last year.

No worries, another title.

[HeyMark]

Its usually early July before they bother with the fixture changes.

[bluebananamilksheikh]

I loved on the BBC about our defence of the title and the picture of Vinny holding the trophy !!!!

Manchester City will begin the defence of their Premier League title at home to newly promoted Southampton.
Runners-up Manchester United start their campaign at Everton when the top flight kicks off on 18 August.
Reading return to the Premier League by hosting Stoke, while promoted West Ham entertain Aston Villa.
The Manchester derby at Etihad Stadium takes place on 8 December with the return fixture at Old Trafford scheduled for 6 April.

I'll be doing everything I can to get tickets for the Reading game on Dec 22, it's the one weekend I'll be in Manchester so delighted we got a home fixture.

I wish they would release the fixtures with the Sky amendments all at the same time as early as possible. Certainly saves a lot of effort for supporters wishing to book travel and fixture table updaterers :-)

[MaineRoadMemories]

Also it's still a strange feeling for me that we invoke such fear into the opposition: http://www.saintsweb.co.uk/showthread.p ... y-first-up I'm still not used to us being so good :-)

[lets all have a disco]

My baby is due on the day of the Spurs game i hope its either early or late or even better the game goes to Monday.
