[Archived] Barclays Premier League Fixtures 2011/12

[rog of the rovers]

Its that time of year again!

Time to start planning those trips.

Who does everyone want first up?

Would you rather start the season at home or finish at home?

Home on Boxing Day or home on New Years Day?

I suspect, with the European Championships this time next year, they will squeeze the games in. This usually leads to midweek night matches, which in all honesty I love!

Also lets see who is the first person to claim they've seen the fixtures (only to be proven wrong, come Friday morning)

[MarkBRFC]

I hope we start with a home game.

Looks like there will be a New Years Eve fixture this season rather than a New Years Day one.

Would rather home on boxing day i think.

Also i think the FA Cup final clashes with league games again this season.

[robbo_rovers]

Is it definitely Friday? I always thought they came out on a Thursday.

[Hughesy]

Id like.....

Away on the last day & Home on the 1st day please.

Start with Everton @ Home, followed by Arsenal away. Finish season with West Brom away

Boxing day away to Bolton

New Years home to Wigan

[Roverdale]

Home first game to Villa hoping they're still in tatters and without Bent, Downing or Young they're very average. Any new signings won't be able to gel for the first game hopefully.

Away on the last day to West Brom.. Woeful side.

Boxing Day home to Bolton

New Years away at Wigan.

[Iceman]

Please, let us not start away to one of the promoted teams. Home game against Man United 1st up, with Phil Jones starting.

[Roversi]

Guarantee we will play United in the one of the first 3 games of the season

[alexanders]

Going with my wife to London on the weekend around 11th of August. Hoping for a game in LDN so I will be able to make it.

[Amo]

Wigan at home for the first game. Nice game to get the ball rolling.

[Kiwiwannabe]

Is it definitely Friday? I always thought they came out on a Thursday.

I checked with the club this morning and it is Friday the fixtures are released.

[roversmum]

Now come on, folks, there's no need to ask.

First match guaranteed to be Villa away.

[Tom]

I imagine we'll play all teams home and away.

I actually think our first game will be away at Swansea or QPR.

[CAPT KAYOS]

We tend to get one of the promoted clubs early doors so can see us playing one of them.

The so called 'big clubs tend to get one of them also' , uncanny how Utd and Chelski seem to kick off with home games more than away.

However just have a feeling we could be at a London club away - probably Chelski despit my previous comment

So rather just our game - the predicition begins for what its worth -nothing

Aston Villa v Notlob

Chelski v ROVERS (Sun)

Liverpool v WBA

Man C v Sunderland

Manu v QPR (Sat late k/o)

Newcastle v Arsenal (Sun)

Norwich v Everton (Sat early k/o)

Spurs v Swansea

Stoke v Fulham

Wigan v Wolves

I'm looking forward to the Carling Cup draw, will be nice to play someone other than Villa!

[TugaysMarlboro]

I know the person who does them, I doubt i'll manage it, but i'll see if I can find out a couple of fixtures.

[A cup of beans]

good work, rog! but 2011 Copa América runs from 1ST- 24TH JULY.

[MarkBRFC]

I'm looking forward to the Carling Cup draw, will be nice to play someone other than Villa!

There is no reason why we can't draw Villa again in the carling cup this season!

We probably will, would be nice to have them at home for a change though

[Ralfinho]

After a successful day out from the Golden Cup to Wolves on the final day of last season I will be putting more coaches on from there this coming season if anyone is interested

[rog of the rovers]

good work, rog! but 2011 Copa América runs from 1ST- 24TH JULY.

Thanks Zac

Changed it. Also added the CONCACAF Gold Cup if anyone is interested!

[Iceman]

African Cup of Nations as well

[chaddyrovers]

I want a home game for the first game of the season, against newcastle or west brom or wovles.

would always like a home game on the last day of the season and one on Boxing day.

Also I don't want to play any of the top 6 in the first 6 games.

[K-Hod]

Nice local away game on boxing day, Wigan away the other year was ideal! Home to start and to finish, I don't want much do I? Ha

[Pedderz0912]

I think our first game will be away to Fulham - I had a dream and we drew 1-1 but guess who scored our equaliser:::::::

Jermaine Jones - Keep the faith he is going to sign

[bennyboyt11]

There is no reason why we can't draw Villa again in the carling cup this season!

We probably will, would be nice to have them at home for a change though

Come on, what are the chances?!

I might pay a visit to Coral to see what odds they'll give me on that... At least I'd gain some enjoyment from that result!
