LFC - Premier League Fixtures Released for the 2014/15 Season

I'm not really arsed about opening fixtures as I think we'll start off on a flyer whoever we have. I'm more interested in the final six.

Away first game of the season.

Away last game of the season.

Hope not, but I think it will be. If I was offered either or, I'd gladly take the first away for the last at home. I always want a home game on the last day if a result is needed.

Otherwise, I want the mancs away asap and get it over with, and the home game after Christmas. Haven't had it though since 2011.  Last year, bar the fixtures against the mancs,  the schedule was quite favourable and it was a massive help in the run in. All the focus is on the first 6 games, but getting a good run in is more important imo.

Twitter leaks suggest: First three games are Southampton home, City away, Spurs away and final day is Stoke away.

What's this thing about the mancs?
Who the F**k cares when we play the has been, mid-table, no account outfit. We have bigger fish to BBQ.

Saints at home first.

Hopefully Lallana will be starting.

FA trying their best to get the mancs back on top

Screw me could it be any easier for them?

not seen there list - why is it easier ?

That fixture list looks very comfortable to me..

For some reason, that looks tough (well in btw S@int with your prediction), Citeh and Spurs both away games 2 & 3. October looks okay, Feb, looks a tough month too.

Throw in the CL too and I think it will be quite a slog next season.

So if we've got a shot at the title come next spring, our final seven matches will be:

Newcastle United (H)
Hull City (A)
West Bromwich Albion (A)
Queens Park Rangers (H)
Chelsea (A)
Crystal Palace (H)
Stoke City (A)


That could be a lot worse.

F**k...tough 1st 3 games but to be Champions we have to beat the Teams in front of us. Let's hope we get off to a great start and get the season off on a flyer.

P.S  Who does the draw?...especially since we already got Lambert and potentially sign Lallana and Lovren. Fireworks for sure. Rigged, I say.

Liverpool v Southampton

Your wishes comes true!

The same tw*t that said the mancs losing is bad for the Premier League's global appeal.

Derby game at home first for the first time since 2003. Arsenal and Chelsea away in the last 5 away games, and away last. We'll need points in the bank going into a very tough run in.

Christmas programme is ok. The games against the mancs fall at good times. City away is over with early. Other than that, it could have been better.

Speaking of the Everton game, my sister and I may be in town then (great timing!). What's the best avenue to try get two tickets in the Kop for that game? Just wait until closer, or can I apply for something even from Australia now to help us get a ticket each.

Had a feeling we'd get a tough first few games. I wouldn't like to be M. Utd come March and April though, if they are near the top come that time then they could throw it away in those two months.

Ow -  I do love this time of season... Get this printed and on the fridge straight away me thinks...

Funny thing is, I look at all the games and start to over thing it all - we all have to play the same teams the same amount of times. The order shouldn't matter too much - yes its a tough start and yes it can help / hinder the flow and momentum. However, if we win the first 3 games we will not win the league - it will however be better to get City (the only  two games I think we will lose before its started) out of the way IMO.

Run in is good IMO - but as many have said winning the league is about not losing to Hull or dropping 3 goals to Palace.

This will be a tough season, I now hope looking at the games and realising last season got us nothing more than 6 tough European (as a minimum) games and they get BR's targets and get us ready for this season...

Pre-season is going to be crucial with the fixtures we have got first up.

Does anyone else remember Gerrard saying BR's first pre-season was the toughest he'd ever had, or did I dream this? 

Anyway, along with BR's training, and our excellent pre-season games, we should be in good shape on the opening day.
