spencer 1970 214 Posted June 15, 2011 This could be a load of old tosh as is grabbed from a BWFC forum.http://boards.footymad.net/forum.php?tno=80&fid=54&sty=2&act=1&mid=2117255560A real case of brothers/nans/cat/in Asda...and possibly flawed because of the Blackpool inclusion/ Spurs omission...but you never know? we''ll not until until Friday am at least.

Barclay hero 0 Posted June 15, 2011 I certainly subscribe to the theory that the fixtures have been done now - there was a BBC blog on the fixtures a year or 2 back - and if theyre done there is a chance that they could be leaked. Certainly everything has to be cross referenced to check things such as local rivals not playing at home on the same day, police requirements, ensuring teams dont play all their away games in one hit, that sort of thing The other point is that there was a test run of the fixture computer a week or so ago, and it could be that someone got hold of that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Muffles 8 Posted June 15, 2011 While it looks feasible enough, for the most part, Blackpool are in the list and no Spurs.However, I do like the look of QPR v Chelsea opening day should it happen.I''d take Bolton at home first game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yellow blood 0 Posted June 15, 2011 Fixtures went to the clubs last weekend so that any minor issues can be ironed out and that Sky / ESPN could look at what games they are going to show. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ryan1992 0 Posted June 15, 2011 Hope this isn''t true! I''m on holiday the first weekend of the season, so I''m hoping it''s away! Bolton away would be fine! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spencer 1970 214 Posted June 15, 2011 according to this flaky info its at Home Ryan. I''m an away season ticket hold so am praying its at Home.Don''t we always lose the first game of the season at home anyway? ;0) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Row D Seat 7 0 Posted June 15, 2011 I''d take Bolton first game. I think we can get points against them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oh_Stevie_Stevie 0 Posted June 15, 2011 I''d take that. An easier game to start the season with. I think it''s important that we keep the momentum going and get points on the board early. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

York Canary 29 Posted June 15, 2011 In the thread to guess the first game of the season I predicted Bolton at home (no idea why just first fixture that came into my head). Cerazy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bjg123 0 Posted June 15, 2011 Even if you switch Blackpool for Spurs it''s not right - Spurs and Arsenal don''t play at home on the same day, unless one''s a Sunday game... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yobocop 1,444 Posted June 16, 2013 I bought this thread back because I was making the point that we already had someone preempt the fixture list and it proved to be wrong, but not that wrong Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Other than the wrong team & saying we were at home when we were away.....Bearing in mind that 2 years over a third of the prem was from thst area - 2 Manchester, 2 Liverpool, Blackburn, Bolton & Wigan then it is no more than co-incidence.It does show how this year the prem is more geographicallt split with us Soton, Hull & the 2 Welsh clubs. Makes a change from the prem being made up of clubs from just 3 areas - North West, London & Midlands. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
