Topic: 2018-19 League fixtures release date

[redtel]

Even if it's wrong there is the usual heavy fixture schedule in December.

8 PL games plus match day 6 in CL in 32 days to Jan 1st.

League Cup games as well, which I hope we are out of.

[paulrazor]

Tough December of that leak is true.

came in to post that

other than that though i think its ok

if true

[Samio]

Tough December - but can't have it all.

Very happy if true.

[CraigDS]

That leak is confirmed then.

So are we clinching the title at home to Huddersfield or away at Newcastle?

Home to Chelsea probably.

[Butcher Knife Roberto]

September is the only fly in the ointment for me. Very happy with those - that run in is most excellent

[Fitzy.]

Liverpool face an away Premier League fixture before all of their six group games 

[BigAl24]

Don't like the Christmas fixtures. Arsenal and City within a few days of each other.

[greg9r]

I guess that will be New Years Eve in Manchester for me 

[LovelyCushionedHeader]

Looks like 38 wins out of 38 to me.

[Ray K]

Home to Chelsea probably.

Better book a few days off around then.

There's a good chance that we'll open the new White Hart Lane: they've got 1 home game in August and there's a fair chance that'll be at Wembley when WHL is getting finished. Probably good to play them early there before they're familiar with the place.

[Felch Aid]

huge opportunity to get points on the board and no CL qualifier.

September looks tough but we'll have a far bigger squad to cope this year.

December again is tough but our CL games will be done by then.

[killer-heels]

Decent start, brutal Christmas and New Year but a decent set of fixtures in our last 10 games.

[Pradan]

Who we play after the group games is more relevant.

That should mean we have home games after the CL games, which is great.

[Gerry Attrick]

Nothing much to grumble about. We have a gentle opening to the season and the run in is pretty friendly too.

[redtel]

Wolves last game of the season.

Brings back memories of '76 !

[clinical]

The first year I can remember that we aren't playing Utd in March?

Doesn't sit right with me that.

[luckyluke]

Apart from December and early January this is pretty good, quite balanced. First and last game at home is a plus.

Arsenal starting vs City and Chelsea is great .

[jed the red]

Don't like the Christmas fixtures. Arsenal and City within a few days of each other.

At least with those two there is minimal travel, so it could have been worse

[killer-heels]

Nothing much to grumble about. We have a gentle opening to the season and the run in is pretty friendly too.

Just had a flick at our rivals and seems the ending is decent for all. If there is an actual title race going then it could be an interesting end to the season.

If that leak is true (and I've seen an Echo journalist moaning about people breaking embargoes this morning) then we could be the first team to play in Spurs' new stadium...

Sky just confirmed that Spurs first home game will be at Wembley, so we will be the first game at the new White Hart Lane. Great opportunity to ruin their party.

[Ray K]

I guess playing the home derby first in December is now a thing. Down with this sort of thing.

@SpursOfficial

🙌 We are delighted to announce that we shall play our first home game at #SpursNewStadium on the weekend of 15/16 September 2018 against Liverpool.

[surfer. Fuck you generator.]

Balanced, nice list imo, allows us to pace ourselves and not get caught in any slumps due to one quality opponent after another.

Title challenge coming up?

What a shame they'll get absolutely battered in their first home game at the new stadium.

[Uncle Ronnie]

What a shame they'll get absolutely battered in their first home game at the new stadium.

Still, at least their fans can enjoy 200 different types of cheese. Swings and roundabouts I suppose

[Chris~]

Don't think December is that bad. Only 2 of the top 6 and both at home. Arsenal and city so close is really going to depend on how sky moves everyone's fixtures round as to how bad it's going to be.

How often have we had Chelsea in the last 6 games of the season recently? Seems to be every year.

[clinical]

I did say that I can remember  , You are right. We usually do though looking at last 10 years.

Yeh, I only remembered cause of that January game tbf

[mikey_LFC]

Who do we have after champions league group games?

[Rhi]

Winning the league. Nice one.

[Wabaloolah]

Good start, gives us a chance to build up some momentum like we did in 13/14!

I see the City v Arsenal game has blown the no Top 6 matches in the opening weekend out if the window!

Probably done deliberately because that secret had been blown.

Liverpool face an away Premier League fixture before all of their six group games 

Clutching at straws and looking for a reason to moan.

I think the fixture list has been very kind to us bar maybe a difficult December

[mikey_LFC]

Who do we have after champions league group games?

We are at home after every single champions league group game.

Southampton at home
Man City at home
Cardiff at home
Fulham at home
Everton at home
Man Utd at home

[Dull Tools]

Liverpool face an away Premier League fixture before all of their six group games

And a home game after each one. Which is what people normally moan about. Its not so bad before.

[markthescouser]

Away before every champions league group game, but home after every game too

[gjr1]

Nice start and reasonable run in
