Always seem to have Chelsea away around October time.
Premier league 2018-19 schedule | June 14th, 9 AM BST
- Thread starter roonster09
- Start date
That last time the year ended with an 8, following a World Cup year, that we got Leicester on the first day of the season...we won the Treble that year...
IT'S ON!!!!
the derby on the 16th March will probably be postponed as it's FA Cup 5th round date and I'd expect one or both teams to be competing
The Premier League don't want them embarrassing the Queen and country in the final again.
If thats the case spurs should be docked points for being unable to fulfill the fixture list, rather than it being bent to suit them.
Disappointed no one has done that colour coded schedule of all games (cup included) yet. is there a world cup or somethin starting?
I can't believe we have to play Man City, Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool and Spurs away!
Totally rigged is this shit... but at least we play them all at home too to balance it out.

If we're still in a title challenge entering the last few months of the season, things could get very exciting.
We can't be docked points because we're the media darlings.
I'd be happy if we're still in the race by the end of the year after last season.
I think our schedules about as good as it gets. Nice easy start (besides Spurs) with all the tricky games spread out (besides Arse away and City home in March) with a decent finish.
Nothing worse than a solid start to the season or a difficult run in.

Happy with that. No excuses to not hit the ground running.
very doable start. No excuses.
United/Mourinho can’t complain at all about that schedule. About as good as it gets. Both start and end of the season is straightforward on paper.
Nothing is easy. We saw that last season.
Decent. Perfect for Mourinho in fact.. if we can grind out those away draws against Liverpool, City and Chelsea first half of the season then we can be in control in the second.
Cue the conspiracy theories on Bluemoon! It's a win-win situation first weekend. We get to witness a meltdown on opening weekend, one of the top 6 WILL drop points.
Now watch us get hammered by Leicester!

Anyone know when we're likely to find out actual days / times for the first few
I'm getting married on 18 aug so need to arrange a projector if necessary

TV Fixtures will be announced early July
Away to Chelsea and Tottenham (in their first home game), and at home to City all before Oct 6th, our season could be over before it has properly started 
Cheers
fecking PL. 0 points after 2 games. That's it. I am literally fuming.
Anyone have the full fixtures?
Couldn't really ask for anything better then that tbh. All nicely spaced out
You shouldn't be. It's a tough start alright but having city at home in the first round is just about the best time for that fixture.
City have 16 players at the world cup, we have 8. All their big players are there and key for their countries, Ozil's about the only starter for us who'll be having significant game time.
Managers often give extended breaks to players after summer tournaments and if that occurs this year we could be in luck.
Having said all that I'm looking forward to us getting pumped 5-0 and this post being quoted in August with 100 laughing emojis under it.
We got a good deal.
Arsenal and big games on opening days always provide massive entertainment. Hope Emery keeps the ball rolling after Wenger in that aspect.

Looks great for us. Tottenham can be slow starters so good to get them nice and early. March will be tricky if we're still in any of the cup competitions, but it's not something major to moan about.
Only one tough run in March when we face Arsenal and City back to back, piss easy schedule tbh. We should win all the first 9 games but it's not gonna happen.
Looks very manageable this schedule. Great actually and if we perform to standard then it will help us go on long runs of form, which is so important for a title run.
Comfortable first 6 games and run in on paper. Home on boxing day and the next one. Most top 6 rivals away in the 1st half of season. Not sure you can ask for anything more.
If we're still in it after Tottenham away on the 12th of January, we have a great chance. Only big away game after that is Arsenal..

Always nice to start and finish at home.
Quite happy with our fixtures. Our last 10 games look nice enough on paper and the start isn’t too bad.
How incredible would it be if City lost their first match. It could derail them somewhat.
Fingers crossed, you scouse git.Away to Chelsea and Tottenham (in their first home game), and at home to City all before Oct 6th, our season could be over before it has properly started
Aye but look at Arsenal's start, Wenger back in banners by their 5th game?Away to Chelsea and Tottenham (in their first home game), and at home to City all before Oct 6th, our season could be over before it has properly started
Well they would have 37 games to make up for it.
I think I prefer getting those away games out of the way as early as possible.Away to Chelsea and Tottenham (in their first home game), and at home to City all before Oct 6th, our season could be over before it has properly started
Also City are our bitches at Anfield.
The schedule in general seems mad this year. A 3 week break between the last league game and the CL final puts any English finalist at a disadvantage, assuming they are not also in the FA Cup final. Also a 6 week break between FA Cup semis and FA Cup final seems mad.
Anyone able to shed any light on this?
