50/50 chance of being right.

Does anybody else look forward to tomorrow more than Christmas?

Always!

Quickly skim the list for -first game, first away game, Christmas, derbies (please be a weekend), Easter, last game.

If you stop looking forward to the fixtures being released you may as well give up!

Joined the lengthy Ewood queue at 5:00am.. sold out signs were up at 11:00am.

I went to the first round tie away in Sofia and was therefore guaranteed a ticket, but only found that out, after they were sold out.

Luckily one of the players found out and gave me and my mate his complimentary tickets.

Great night up there and we were unlucky to lose. second leg was a comedown though.

How? Surely the % chance of that being right are much lower? There's 4 50/50's there.

Anyway, apparently Burnley have Bristol City (H) first game so we're away, rumour doing the rounds.

No, because if you are away the first game, you are always home the last. Same if you are home on boxing day, you are away on new years day.

Seems to have worked that way in the last few years.

Before that though i remember plenty of times where we were at home first and last day, and also away first and last too.

Over Christmas you are correct it always works out alternate on boxing/new years day.

I don't remember that, I can't remember it happening too many times in the last 50 years, but that may just be my memory. My original post was a quip. Not really a topic for in-depth discussion.

Last time we were home first and last day was the 15-16 season.

Doesn't work like that, works on the whole weekend. If Burnley are at home first weekend then we'll be away and vice versa.

[davulsukur]

QPR at home for us on the opening day

Dingles away to Hudds
