The annual 'opening day fixtures leak'

[DJS]

This year's leak:

 

Arsenal v Blackburn Rovers

Aston Villa v Sunderland

Bolton Wanderers v Everton

Fulham v Wigan Athletic

Hull City v Portsmouth

Liverpool v Tottenham Hotspur

Manchester City v West Bromwich Albion

Newcastle United v Middlesbrough

Stoke City v Manchester United

West Ham United v Chelsea

 

So you can rule out Spurs at home as the opening game then

[MFletcher]

I think we can rule out ANY scenario where we're at home on the opening day.

[Lark]

i imagine we'll be uniteds first home game - so the c**** can parade their trophies infront of us.

[Sion]

Rumour I heard was Wigan away.

Have these leaks ever been correct? Apart from the CL quarter finals draw, i mean...

[Tetti]

What is the last day of the season, exactly?

 

Ta

[MFletcher]

I've seen us at home to Newcastle as well in one of these 'leaks'.

 

We'll probably end up away to Hull.

[Cam]

What is the last day of the season, exactly?

It's when all the teams play their final games of the regular 38-game season.

 

HTH.

[CarraLegend]

Hopefully Boro away, I know it means we'll be starting with played 1 drew 1 or lost 1, but the sooner we have that smelly, cold, incest ridden flea pit out of the way the better.

You never know, we might get the Ecru kit out, and Ravennelli might make a comeback

Or a 0-0 draw with Gerrard missing about 15 chances.

[Guest Prongsy]

I'll say

 

Liverpool 7 - 0 Hull

 

Torres 6

Torres 18

Villa 32

Babel 55

Villa 60

Villa 68

Torres 82

Oh dear, he'll want to leave now. Bloody Rafa and his rotating.

I was quite disenchanted, myself.

[Gunga Din]

[Gomez]

Didn't they say last year that the big clubs are kept apart on the opening weekend?

Not really sure how that is allowed, but Sky doing as they like doesn't really surprise me.

Villa away early. Always going to happen.

they got Newcastle at home

[baz2107]

Didn't realise that the season was ending so late this season, does that mean the fa cup final is 31st May?

[psl]

Will it be the Boro game moved for CL qualifier?

 

So we'll start with Sunderland and Villa away and United at home?
