Rob182 Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 I'd like Stoke at home, and for Benteke, Weimann, Gabby, Tonev and Okore to all get a hattrick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomaszk Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Away to Chelsea wouldn't be as bad as away at Cardiff or Palace. Expect a big loss at any time of the season, and they won't have any form, a point is a great way to kick the season off, a loss isn't deflating. Cardiff and Palace fans will be right up for it and a winnable game becomes a trickier affair. Absolute rubbish. Our players and fans will be well up for it too. Give me Palace over Chelsea any day. More chance of getting a win on the board, start as we mean to go on. Yes more chance of a win, but a a loss or even a draw is a poorer result. If we play Hull away in December, we're more likely to get a win than first game of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want a Champions League side or a promoted side on the opening day. Two hornets nests we'd do well to avoid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted June 18, 2013 Author Share Posted June 18, 2013 fulham at home would be ideal for me, or away to swansea if away game like I said we always seem to play west brom at home first for some reason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excuse my overly shouty response, I'd just woken up to find a massive spider crawling on my tit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bannedfromHandV Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 I think there's a 50% chance of getting a home game first up. And I also believe there is a one in nineteen chance that it will be Liverpool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 i just saw that on sky, they could do something with us, everton, baggies and stoke, and give us a home game and maybe even make a fuss seeing as it was our idea its the premier league making the decisions though not the football league so they might just sidestep it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
becks1876 Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 West Ham away....just to see what our away strip looks like on the players other wise Liverpool at home/away i don't mind which as long as we win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aalborg BK Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Swansea at home. Could be very interesting to see how Aston Villa would do against "the Spanish armada". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikantcpell Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Man U at home..worked out well the last time. yep. Utd at home 1st game after a season with a new manager who closely avoided relegation. I like the symmetry! Top 4 and a cup win would be lovely Like i said..We beat them the last time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raver50032 Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Don't the Championship winners from the previous season often end up at the home turf of the previous season's Premier League winners? I haven't checked any of that of course. It seems though, that they like to keep the big 4 clashes to a special aumtumnal super-sunday weekend jizzfest anyway, so we are quite likely to get a 'big' club. We went through a couple of seasons of playing Liverpool at home on opening day, and now they are no longer Premier League material, I would hazard that might be the first match up for us.
