To be fair that would be pretty nasty for any club in the PL. Got to be a good bet for being in the relegation area by the time they get to visiting Man City thoughNo Fixed Abode wrote:I saw a Liverpool fan moaning this morning that they have 7 tough away games at the start.

Most teams would prefer an easier start to get in their stride for the season. If you had 7 easy away games and picked up lots of points it would breed confidence for the rest of the season. I may be wrong but I can't see Liverpool picking up too many points from those games which won't be very good for confidence.Silver Fox wrote:While I hate the way people always dissect sections of their seasons (you play everyone twice) that's a pretty hellish start tbf, not sure what Kesmond's point is really (no change there)
Depends which way around you are dealt really. Liverpool will say that, having no tougher away game than Southampton after 21st November, they will be in a very good spot if they aren't miles off the top, especially with all of those sides still to come to Anfield (they don't play any of them at home until the New Year).Ouroboros wrote:They have 7 piss-easy away games to start, though.

But you knew that - Not sure why I need to explain. Oh it's you.
I thought the OP said Villa?No Fixed Abode wrote:Any way - The Champions start at home to Swansea.
Chelsea also seem to have an issue with thisVision wrote:So what are the fixtures the Champions league teams have after an away CL trip?
That seems to be the main bone of contention from the top clubs over the fixture list especialy if they subsequently get brought forward for TV to lunchtime.
Errr, it's General Football and on the thread 'PL (PREMIER LEAGUE) fixtures 2015/2016'.Silver Fox wrote:I get your LFC fan mate's issue, I just don't understand your reason for relating it here?No Fixed Abode wrote:Most teams would prefer an easier start to get in their stride for the season.
