Premier League 2018/19

[Blaarev]

The fixtures for the season are supposed to be announced on June 14th, but has the first round already been leaked?

Don’t these get “leaked” every year?

It’s so long ago, I can’t remember.

Companies House have threatened to strike Palace off as they are late in filing their 2017 accounts. Please let it happen ( probably won't 'tho ).

Also doing away with the equal share from the foreign rights

Maybe I'm wrong, but does it seem strange to anyone else, for the Premier League to announce their fixtures on the same day as the World Cup starts?

It's not the most important thing in the footballing calendar, but they normally like to make a bit of a fuss over it and it seems a bit odd to do it on the same day, as the focus will pretty quickly switch away from it.

Arsenal's new manager

He should have stood slightly to his left, and blocked the letters "nal" instead.

“Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho is unhappy with the early start for this season's Premier League campaign and says he won't start players returning from the World Cup in the Red Devils' Aug. 10 opener.”

Might suit whoever they play in the first match....

 

[Motown Fox]

Except our best two players won't be playing in it either for the same reason.

He's never happy the useless Twat

He’s not wrong here though. A ridiculous 50+ game season, as many as seven games in just over a month in the summer, followed by a series of idiot friendlies all over the world crammed into the three weeks or so between the World Cup and the start of the new season. When do the players get to actually go home and do their own thing?

When do the players get to actually go home and do their own thing?

When they retire at the end of their relatively short career.

Between now and when he sees fit to have them back.

It's not just his players that have been to WC.

Plus it's a great opportunity for some of the younger players or an opportunity to use the massive squad that teams like Utd accrued from signing everybody else's players.

At lease Mahrez will get a game or two.

Most working people get holidays though, don't they?
