And there I was thinking we were not able to play at home on Boxing Dayonly1salty wrote: ↑Wed Jun 16, 2021 11:10 am Positive note: 1st home game on Boxing Day since we moved stadiums
A tad too simplistic imo. In any case, with fans back in stadiums, are the home games going to give us a particular advantage ? And if there is only one away game to "worry us" in the first haf of the season does that not mean we should perhaps be scared shitless of what awaits in the second part ?Clayton wrote: ↑Wed Jun 16, 2021 10:22 am Not all bad especially as we get Leicester - Palace - Man Utd - Brentford - Tottenham - Liverpool - Brighton - Chelsea - Norwich and Southampton all at home before the New Year and the only away fixture to obviously worry us is going to be Man City , so hopefully we would have built up a big total, for the run in

and there was me thinking April/May were gonna be a bummer...BlackDiamond wrote: ↑Wed Jun 16, 2021 2:15 pm Looking ahead, May might be a productive month, points accumulation wise
Norwich - enough said
Man City - title already secured resting players for Champions league final
Brighton - perennial strugglers
9 points should boost us into the top four - Moyes, don't take that Real Madrid job mate
And there was me trying to be all optimistic instead of my usual pessimistic self , as for being scared shitless in the second part , I was hoping we had built up a reasonable total and the confidence and new found talent would get us into 4th placeWhiskyman wrote: ↑Wed Jun 16, 2021 4:10 pmA tad too simplistic imo.

.I wouldn't complain. It could be a lot worse. Check out Newcastle's fixtures. They are also away to Southampton on NYD
, for the run in
