Very difficult start which doesn't make me optimistic in the slightest but hoping we can get a few in the door and alot out before we start against Chelsea
Cheer up.Rock bottom and out of the title race after 2 games. I just knew we would get Wolves away early on.
Also, I fully expect an away Europa tie in Southern Ukraine between City and Spurs in March - inevitable!
Oh and Liverpool to win their first 10 games.
Yeah. July 25th and August 1st. They start in the second round and there are four of them. Third round is August 8th and 15th so if they qualify for that, your game is bound to be on Sunday or even Monday night.Do wolves have to do qualifying rounds for the EL?
Yeah but it could be a double edged sword, they could be well up on fitness and tank us.Do wolves have to do qualifying rounds for the EL?
I know Wolves are a lot better than the teams in that position before them but history says teams in those early qualifiers tend to have a shit start to the seasonYeah but it could be a double edged sword, they could be well up on fitness and tank us.

It majorly impacted Burnley's start to the season last year.

Always good to get the tough games out of the way early.Very difficult start which doesn't make me optimistic in the slightest but hoping we can get a few in the door and alot out before we start against Chelsea
The FA don't care about Premier League teams playing abroad.So Liverpool play 9th August.
Chelsea play us 11th August
And they both play each other in the UEFA super cup in Istanbul on 14th August.
Cos thats fair.
You're right, make them both play on the 13th it's the only way to even it out.So Liverpool play 9th August.
Chelsea play us 11th August
And they both play each other in the UEFA super cup in Istanbul on 14th August.
Cos thats fair.
But apparently UEFA don't care about PL teams either, it's a joke that it takes place when the season is already started. Should be held beforehand.The FA don't care about Premier League teams playing abroad.
Why would they care when the country's FA doesn't?But apparently UEFA don't care about PL teams either, it's a joke that it takes place when the season is already started. Should be held beforehand.
Clearly.The FA don't care about Premier League teams playing abroad.
Depends on what you define as the big 4 these days.Unless my memory deceives me, the last time we opened our season against the 'big 4' was in 2004 against Jose's Chelsea at the Bridge.
Really long time ago.
Easy 30 points for us there.
It's the PL who choose to start their season beforehand. UEFA and FIFA schedules are planned out far in advance, so you can actually plan holidays around international weeks and the like.But apparently UEFA don't care about PL teams either, it's a joke that it takes place when the season is already started. Should be held beforehand.
We should send our U21 to Istanbul for all I care.
Correct. Keane at CB.Unless my memory deceives me, the last time we opened our season against the 'big 4' was in 2004 against Jose's Chelsea at the Bridge.
Really long time ago.
Straws clutched very firmly indeed!I prefer playing good teams early as they shouldn't be in a good form so we have a chance. During the season they get better and we don't.
