Well, if anything this thread has made me appreciate that getting tickets might be a leetle more difficult than last year.. Last August on my hols I wandered up North to see friends, and Saints at Barnsley, and bought a ticket on the day. Different approach this year, perhaps down the pub!

I would like awat game to wigan or norwich to start with that way our last game for this season will be at home

 

Doesn't always work like that. We were at home to Palace in 07-08 and finished the season at home to Sheff Utd. We also started our first season outside the top flight for 27 years at home to Wolves and finished at home to Leicester.

A Saints youth team player has just Tweeted this...

Saints vs Arsenal 3rd game of the season at St Marys. #SaintsFC

 

It's not just him who has put it either! Someone else said Arsenal have Sunderland at home first, then Fulham at home and then us away.

 

Liverpool fans hearing a lot about Saints v Liverpool opening day at St Marys! Would be a brilliant way to start life back in the PL, especially at home!

 

According to the rumours, the potential fixture list could look like:

 

Liverpool (H)

? (A)

Arsenal (H)

That is an horrific start, but how nice is to to see us against those teams again? TBH Promoted teams could do with picking up points early....we haven't got much chance of that. We could be rooted to the bottom after the few few weeks going by that opening set!

Actually a one in thirty six, we won't be playing Reading in the opening match as we'll be twinned with their fixtures and you can't play "derby" matches in the first or last matches of the season (or on bank holidays).

 

There's no guarantees regarding home or away games either, we weren't in this division last season so it's unlikely it'll be taken into consideration and teams often have 2 homes or 2 aways in a row even when it is.

 

Well would you look at that, we're scheduled to play Reading on the same dates as the Manchester derbies.
