Next Years Fixtures - Which match is a must see game and why

[AthleticoSpizz]

Pointless getting excited about any particular fixture next season.

The fixture list comes out...


holidays are booked, working arrangements are made, babysitters are booked.


...........then SKY TV come along and move all the goalposts.



Some "preferential" games will be missed for sure

[Winchester Royal]

We'll poke fun at him anyway.

[phil in cornwall]

I hope we get several of the BIG 4 at the end of the season when they have already qualified for the Euro Cup.

We can then beat their reserves.

But we will be one of them by then........

[biscuitsrus]

Although Fratton is such a shit tip, would it not be great to "do" them on their on turf.

Suggest an August/September fixture would be nice!!

No. 13 needs a vast improvement at Pompey next season.

[Winchester Royal]

Its too cramped, sound doesn't carry, people won't stand up, the stewards are intolerant, and it just ain't going to happen at Pompey.

Sadly..

[RG30]

Sunderland away will be good. Stadium of Light should be sold out next season for most games and will be good to see what the ground is like full to capacity.

Really enjoyed Everton away this season, so that'll be good trip.

Sheff Utd at home for me - can't wait to wind up Colin again .....

Oh wait ... , in fact double of course!!

Just LOVED seeing him been brought down to earth! Mouthy thuggish git!!

[Winchester Royal]

I'd like to see him back in the Premiership, he's always good for entertainment value.

[Dirk Gently]

Persoanlly, I'm looking forward to Sunderland away - since the last match I've become good mates with some of their fans, and the atmosphere there when it's full will be superb.

[Doyler]

Sunderland away will be good. Stadium of Light should be sold out next season for most games and will be good to see what the ground is like full to capacity.

Really enjoyed Everton away this season, so that'll be good trip.

I have never been there so its going to be a priority for me.

[PREMIERSHIP_ROYAL]

derby if they come up

Has the bloke in the glasses, left of baldy, just been given some sort of sexual relief??? Is that an offence inside a football ground?


That is a Hell of an odd looking bunch!
