Away 1st game?

Wigan worked out well. Lol

 

And Preston the year before was even worse!

 

Just had a quick count and I think we've only won 2 of the last 14 times that we've played away from home in the opening league game of the season, Brighton 2014 and Swindon 2003. You have to go back to 1990 for the last time before that. (The opening game that is, not just the first away game)

I’ve seen an article saying the 1st day fixtures for the 2019/20 premiere league have been leaked. In the article it’s got Bournemouth at home against the pigs 1st. So this means our 1st game should be away because Premier league starts a week earlier and pigs will be at home 2nd weekend. So that’s 3 years away 1st for us.☹️

Congratulations, you were bang on!

And they've only had since beginning of May to get this sorted?

A cynic might think they like putting these ‘requests’ in so that if they get turned down they can play the victim card....

Really is pi$$ poor that the opening fixtures where leaked. Why don’t the FA just release them on the day they are drawn!

Probably cos they were drawn last month. They don't just to them this morning.

 

They plan for weeks and weeks and change any dates that are needed cos computer doesn't do it all perfectly.

Yes we will be at home first: United play Bournemouth away

No we won’t. Championship starts week before so we will be away that day and at home the weekend the premier starts

 

Away on Boxing Day again though
