If they do, it'll be 10% capacity max. Won't be full stadiums for a long time.

So I'm guessing it'll be Super Sunday 4.30 kick off, as our last 3 season openers have been.

Can't see any attendances this year due to the facilities at the majority of the stadiums.

Wembley & pardon me the Emirates are great, I'd imagine the new Spurs ground is too?

Spurs & West Ham are the two new grounds for me to attend so hopefully us travelling fans will be there in 2021 mate

We have fabulous facilities. Even have plenty of toilets. We have a brewery on site. Prices are reasonable for London. £5 pie and pint in the first hour after the gates open.

I’m delighted with Liverpool away as the first fixture. This is what the players worked and it’s their chance to shine. Great motivation for training over the next couple of weeks - if it was needed. No home support also helps.

I really think we may surprise them. It would be good to go with two specialist and experienced centre backs though!

Liverpool away eh? You couldn't make it up could you? (well the algorithm could) I would have preferred a home match against easier opposition of course, but I just think of Hudds Town on their first season first match (?) in the prem against Man U two years ago.They caught them cold, and were underestimated, so you never know. Better to play them right at the start than 2 months in when they're motoring.

Sounds great, that's a good deal Totte, you're price structure at White Hart Lane was always reasonable in our First Division/Premier League years

Ken Bates use to fleece our fans for that amount ten years ago

Then he took us down to League One :chair:

Liverpool won't like being bottom of the league after game one :lol:

Well, to be fair, he got us out of the Championship as promised :)

This thread had inspired me (well made me think about it at last). Been changing all my Championship/Football league bookmarks to Premier League ones. So good to be back.

Easy Peasy... we are going to walk this league
Old antiquated clubs with no fresh ideas.
Dinosaurs from a bygone age who believe that cash is king
Creaky old bones hobbling along still believing in outdated philosophies
Decrepit doddering cretins living on past glories.
We have nothing to fear here. We are a steam roller.
We are a sledge hammer. We are a wrecking ball
and nothing intimidates us. Onwards to victory and glory.

May as well get the big boys first. I could just as easily be sitting here contemplating a first match at Wycombe but instead....

I can't wait!

Wycombe is a nice dinky ground Kindest, not quite the same as Liverpool I must admit.

I remember Becchio scoring the winner at Adams Park :scar1

I love the look of a nice, intimate ground. It's quaint. Kind of like my grandma's parlor, God rest her soul.

But I'm so done with dinky. Bring on the champions!

Leeds the third most visited fixture page

BBC Sport Data Analyst Andrew Bassett has been crunching the numbers since the fixtures were released:

Over two hours since the Premier League fixtures went live and Leeds United is the third most visited club fixture page on BBC Sport.

Only Manchester United and Liverpool are ahead of the Yorkshire club.

Google Trends data also shows Leeds are one of the most searched clubs on Google this morning, tracking at similar levels to Liverpool and Manchester United.

It’s no surprise really. We are one of the truly big clubs out there, fans absolutely everywhere, and I think it’s gonna shock a lot of the younger PL fans when they see what we bring to the table.
