Jareth Posted June 16, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted June 16, 2021 Nice spread of fixtures, plenty of chances to pick up wins steadily throughout the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Willard Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 So important to get a good start, the 4 wins on the bounce last season set us up nicely for the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted June 16, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted June 16, 2021 Hopefully Citeh will have won the league a while before we play them and be considering Champions league finals and whatnot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CVByrne Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 Happy enough with that fixture list. Don't like playing promoted sides away first game back in Prem, but two home games after that is good and getting United away early is probably best time for us to play em.

Rodders Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 I just realised looking at the fixture list, I really don't fear any of those 'runs' against the bigger sides that normally would have us shitting our pants. So excited for the new season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 I think that's a good list for us Hopefully in and around it making it a big mid march to end of April You can almost guarantee if its a good start then the international break will **** us up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess when the league cup games are placed into the list it will fill in the midweek gaps earlier in the season, so December won’t stand out so much when those gaps fill up.

bannedfromHandV Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 It can be tough playing a newly promoted side first up, add in the fact that we always struggle at Watford and that’s a difficult first game for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubberman Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 September/October will show us where we are. Come through that with a decent points tally and we'll be on for a good season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first game is always difficult in fairness. It's very winnable if we have a good preseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 I like all those Saturday 3pm kick off's, just like it used to be. Pity they won't stay like that for long. Our first game should be live, but I guess TV's first dabs might be: Norwich vs Liverpool, Spurs vs Man Citeh, Brentford vs Arsenal & shock/horror Manchester United vs Leeds (it's not still the 1960's you know SKY/BT).

Panto_Villan Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 If we don't take at least 6 points from those first three games I think the Dean Smith thread is going to be extremely busy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
