      Premier League Fixtures 2020/21
      Aug 16, 2020 11:21:39 am
      According to the Fantasy League website, we're starting at West Ham away.  When you put your players into the team it shows their 'next game' and ours is down as the Hammers.

      Full list should be out this week.  Less than four weeks to go.

      The Christmas run ain't too shabby and the run in for the end of the season isn't bad either.

      Tricky start though will need to be at it

      Blues will be moaning that it will likely be the second derby on the bounce at their shithole with no fans

      Very tough start to the season, if we are still in contention by the end of November then we are looking good, the Run-in is also very nice, after Man Utd away.

      Leeds will be an interesting and tricky first fixture as they are a slightly unknown quantity although Jürgen and the boys will no doubt have extensive files on them. Chelsea second up is probably ok as they will probably still be in a bit of flux will all the new recruits.


      I would say the milestones are:

      - End of Nov are we in contention.
      - End of Feb are we still in contention
      - End of April, if we are ahead or just a few points behind at this point then we should win, last 4 games in May are very winnable

      Strange situation at the moment but I'm sure Jürgen'll have them at it.

      Exactly champions take it in their stride,we know whats required, the learning curve never decrease many things will have been learned after our brilliant campaign last season , the CL blip will have been dissected and as I say learned from, the hard part is the fans not being there god knows when that will get back to normality ,if it ever does, seeing Anfield empty is a terrible watch no matter how they try to replicate it.

      Tricky start to the season...hopefully Pulisic isn’t back from injury in time for that game.

      Chelsea look as though they have the best layout of fixtures from what I’ve seen so far.

      If we can win those first 3 games then that will set us up nicely, with the next 4 being winnable. Could put pressure on City early especially if we can beat them after those fixtures. Cannot wait already!

      Can't fookin believe it, I was just thinking about who I'd like as first opponents as Champions and said Leeds, might just buy myself a lotto ticket,

      Anyhoo,  f***in Leeds, "Dirty Leeds"
      It's a brilliant game to start with, Champions V Champions and a reminder to Leeds just how far they will need to travel to get anywhere near us,

      Under Bielsa they are bubbling along just nicely but a Championship winning side are in no way a bona fide rival irrespective of the history between us & them, I'm pleased they are back in the premier league but that's as far as my admiration goes,

      On the 12th they will realise how wide the gulf in class is when we put them to the sword,  we will hit the ground running when we begin the 'Attack on a second title winning campaign,  they are simply at the first hurdle on a long road to survival.


      Can't wait to batter these pretenders ! !

      Promoted team at Anfield first game.  Second home game v Arsenal.  Same as last year.  Fingers crossed we get the same results.

      Bit odd that we start and end at home.

      Lower league clubs planning to have some crowds in for October time.  Every alternate row empty and obviously people spaced out on their row according to their 'bubbles'

      That's their plan though - seems ambitious to me.

      Ideally you’d play as many big games away in September-October whilst the fans are deffo not a factor. It all looks alright to me, tricky start but Xmas looks quite soft and your lesser teams struggle because of squad depth so the less big games over that period the better.

      I can see the lock out lasting all season. It's the only way. The virus will circulate more in the winter months, so I just can't see any change. In fact I expect to see plenty of games postboned due to clubs reporting positive cases. Could easily throw the season into some difficulty.

      Nobody really knows if we'll get thru the winter without another major lockdown. If it happens football will be effected.

      Cant see either another manor lockdown happening or the football lockout continuing much beyond October/ November

      Clubs have already put systems into place and sold season tickets in lower leagues

      But were talking about the Premier league and if you have a weekend with say 9 home  games and an average attendance of 29,000..260k plus all the peripheral stuff. Have to limit the crowds to say 10,000...nah I can't see it happening. Answer is we just don't know how bad it will get in the winter. We have to go through this first winter first IMO before we start really taking the shackles off.

      I’m pretty sure there are winters happening around the globe as we speak mate and as far as in aware there isn’t a great deal of difference or any particular acceleration of infection rate. Fans will be back in sine capacity before December imo

      Country and the game will be crippled

      Tests will start with lower leagues and then be rolled out. I have a cousin who is a season ticket holder at a league 2 club and he has brought his already and the idea they will be in the ground in October. They were sent detailed plans on how it would happen which just need finalising

      Gates will be dependent on the size of the grounds not an average
      No away fans, fans spread all around the 4 sides, one row sold the next not, spaces of 3 seats between groups
      Designated roll outs for each section to leave

      No way we lockdown again or dont reintroduce fans

      Anfield I'd image willie limited initially to around 15000-18000

      My post should've read 9 home games..

      But yes I'd love to see the crowds back.We'll suffer because of our great supoort. Kicking into the Kop has always been a huge plus for us because of the crowd, the atmophere..the pull but I just can't see it happening this season. As I said it's an unknown and I just can't see the Government taking a chance.They've made so many mistakes that has cost so many I would think they will er on the side of caution.

      Nonsense, there are hardly any deaths now and the risk to anyone under the age of 60 is close to zero. How many games were cancelled after the restart in any league??

      Well cold and the flu are much more prevalent in the winter months, so there is good reason to think it will be worse in the winter. If it stays at the levels it's at now with the odd flare up, then a controlled return will probably be possible. It would obviously need very close monitoring. But i'm not convinced it will stay at the same level. It's an unknown quantity in many respects.So we'll see.

      To true.I was there at home when they clinched the first div championship..'69 I think it was, we applauded them off the pitch. Eddie Gray was my favourite Leeds player. United have had some battles with them as well.

      Norman Hunter was mine God rest his soul. Such a beast and reminds me of Keane & Souness.  ;D Leeds are probably the only team I'd struggle with to clap them of the pitch, more like behind their F***ing ears  :lmao:

      Promoted team at Anfield first game.  Second home game v Arsenal.  Same as last year.  Fingers crossed we get the same results.

      Bit odd that we start and end at home.

      As for the West Ham trip....

      Last time we started and finished at home was 2018/19. It's rare enough but it's usually a sign of a good season to come. Home advantage is gold dust on the final day if a result is needed. The mancs are off to Wolves. I definitely wouldn't want that on the final day in any circumstances.

      The fixture list is better than last season, but there are still some banana skins in there. Leeds and the mancs away back to back in the run in is one. Arsenal away in April is another, while Burnley as our last away game is not ideal in the event of a tight title race. And the players will have lots of travel to do during the Christmas period.

      Chelsea and Everton away early on is the best time to go there. It's the first year we've gone to Everton before Christmas since 2016. City away is our 8th game of the season, and an early chance to send out a strong statement of what we're looking for, which is to equal the title record. It could even happen in the mancs backyard in May. But any way of winning No. 20 will do.

      Been in full gloat mode since we clinched it. The Klopp phone call at 3 o'clock in the morning to the Old Soak was an absolute classic and now it all kicks off in just a few weeks. Haven't really had me cricket fix this year because of the virus or played any golf and now it's back to the big issue again.

      Feels as if the boss and the team haven't got any lingering hangover or come down blues so we can go against Leeds with a clear head. Still want us to freshen up at the coal face. Maybe the Boss has something up his sleeve..hope so.
