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

Everton game is two days after my birthday, here's hoping.

Has kitster done his annual artistic fixture list yet?

Derby game at home first for the first time since 2003.

Great stat that - something I'd wondered about when I saw we were at home early against them.

I got my wish of a September 13th home game...now I must find tickets.  Any suggestions?

Mine is the 27th September, Chance of a ticket? More chance of peace in the Middle East.

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.

I think you would struggle for any conventional route for that game.

A favour or off the books may be your only way

I'm going for Southampton at Anfield as our first game, with Lallana still playing for Southampton.

Creepy....

Do we win the league?

I dont buy into all this tough start, easy run in stuff. If were serious about winning it we play whoever whenever. The one thing I will look out for is the champions league dates to see who we play before or after. Those 12 games (either side of the 6 champions league group games) will be the most important games of our season for me

I figured as much, but I have to try.   

Let's just take it one game at a time. 

Tough August, but man oh man would 9 points again to start the season be amazing.

Neither do I.  Made a dogs dinner of Palace and then almost made a bollock of Newcastle at home - a game I had down as the banker of all bankers.

We need to stick with the mantra. 10 points every 5 games. Let's see where it gets us by March.

To be honest the start of the season usually sees smaller teams pick up points as the so called bigger teams have yet to reach full throttle, swings and roundabouts.

We need to stick with the mantra. 10 points every 5 games. Let's see where it gets us by March.

Interestingly enough I wrote down win lose draw beside the fixtures this morning. When I read your quote above I went back and looked at what I predicted in blocks of 5 games. We don't fail at all to pick up 10 points or more every 5 games albeit in my version of events!!

For what its worth I predict we win 25 draw 9 lose 4. Finish with 84 points. Only 1 defeat in the opening 15 games. Our best sequence of wins to be 6 from Burnley away to west Ham at home. Sadly I predict Everton away to be the end of that run and 1 of our 4 defeats.

Pretty thin?

The new season fixture announcement has been a unique one for me. Mate is a massive Leicester fan so, strangely, it was the first fixture I looked for, neither date is great for us to be honest. Also, this coming season I am likely to have a season ticket (I say 'have', I mean 'share') so it all seems little surreal. Can't wait!

Neither do I.  Made a dogs dinner of Palace and then almost made a bollock of Newcastle at home - a game I had down as the banker of all bankers.

It was a home banker. Palace was going well until they scored from 30 yards out of nothing.

Fixture lists are scheduled. The circumstances they are played in are not. There can be no argument whether it's better for a confident side in good form at full strength to play opponents that have key players out,  long injury lists, many games in short time frames, or have nothing to play for, than the reverse at a different time of the season. Having games in hand, and playing games when you know what result you need to keep up with rival clubs or take advantage of their slip ups is also valuable.

Last season, we had the manc home game as they were adjusting to their new coach, while the away game was off the back of a great run for us and a poor one for them. While if we had Arsenal, Spurs, City, and Everton away in the second half of last season, it's very likely that we wouldn't have got the points and position we did.

The mancs are away on the last day for the fourth year in a row. Arsenal, City, and Chelsea are all at home on the last day. So I  certainly hope that we're not going to Stoke needing a result and/or rely on favours, as it's considerably harder to get it there than at home to Palace.

dont forget TV will screw up a lot of these dates - will be amazed if out of the 38 fixtures, more than say 15 stay the same date

Double figures eh?  You're optimistic.

For selfish reasons, I am glad that England got knocked out of the WC so early.  I have tickets to the preseason game in Chicago against Olympiacos and if England had progressed then there would be less chance of those players getting a run out in this game.  As it is, with the season scheduled to kickoff less than 3 weeks from the date of this game, I expect I'll be able to see at least a handful of our stars in action for 45 minutes or so

Anybody know when sky and bt announce TV listing for opening weekend?

Meant to announce the first schedule of fixtures today, if not it will likely be early next week.
