1st Game of Next Season

I want a decent game first up, someone mid table e.g Portsmouth,Newcastle,Tottenham.

Need a newly promoted side to batter to boost confidence early and then get some big games rolling.

Bring on the Prem!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Any team will do as we have to play them all over the season,it would be nice to kick off at Anfield and get a good start with a win. ( hopefully Villa and Torres will a couple of goals each ) He is going to sign for us isn't he.ROLL ON THE NEW SEASON, it cannot come quick enough.

Suderland away not bad September13th Scum bags at Anfield Yahoo bring it on

Everton, Man Utd and Chelsea all within the first 10 rounds. Also Villa, Boro, Pompey, Tottenham and City all in the first 11 games. So a testing start, if we get through that then we can consider ourselves title contenders. (Getting through meaning 25+ points from a possible 33)

Go for the top mate we do not want to drop any points if at all possible.We need to get off to a flyer and keep the momentum going.

Sunderland Away is our first game why do we never get a home game on the first day of the season how long for F**k sake.

How annoying eh !!

Don't you just feel like the odds are already stacked against you before the season has even started

Hopefully, no matter how difficult, it will be an even sweeter moment when we lift the Premiership on the last day of the season at home

Tommo.........no football tournaments, make sure your there for this one

With the Premier League fixtures for 2008/09 being released tomorrow, who do you want in the fist game and why?

Personally I would love to see us get Spurs at home, as its the team my dad follows, and it would be a good game to get 3 points to get our season off to a flyer!

Typical- the game I wanted first, ends up being the last game of the season!

Sunderland Away isnt to bad of a game to kick off with we should be able to get the 3 points off them.

Yes its true, it will be easy.

i wouldn't say it would be easy (well it should) just remember sheffield utd couple of seasons ago.. should've caned them and God saved us from embarrassment :S but they are generous fixtures to allow new members to gel even more in some fast paced physical games so I'm confident

Playing newly promoted sides is always brutal, especially away from home because they are all high on life because they are in the Premiership.

I think thats its a good way to start as sunderland look like bringing in more players so the team may not yet have gelled and i think that kendwin jones is on the injury table atm so he may not be fit... its awful wishing that someones injured i no but he can play all he wants after

Not a bad start to next season. Didnt we play sunderland in the first 3 games last season? dissapointed we have to wait so long before we play arsenal though

Good point i hear kenwyne jones is out untill 2009, he seems he would be the main threat to us so we should open with a win again.

sunderlands a good team to play against first, beat them both times last season and i see that happening again this season
