QPR at home last game of the season
We can parade the Premier league trophy before the game...

It's an omen I tells ya!!

Citeh beat 'em to win it and looks like we'll have to do the same!! 

Seriously though, if we do have a poor run of form in all those big games lumped together I just hope the whoppers that follow the club don't start calling for B.ROD's head or chanting Rafa's name. With those first 5 fixtures I'll be ecstatic with a 9 point haul. Some will argue that it's lowering our standards but it's just a realistic reflection of where we are at the moment.

This is just a disgrace quite honestly I just don't believe that these first two home games were picked out randomly by a computer. The club should be asking questions from Mr Scudamore about this it's clearly deliberate.

In a historical context does anyone remember United or Arsenal being given Liverpool and Everton at home in their first two home games at the end of the 80s when the Liverpool clubs were dominating?

Someone clearly doesn't want Liverpool to be at the top of the table after the first few games. We've been stitched up a number of times since 92 from Forest on the opening day under Souness, to Chelsea at home in 03-04, to Arsenal at home a couple of years ago and now this.

It beggars belief.

It doesn't matter when we play any team we still have to play the 38 games and at the end of the season you finish up were you deserve to be. There is no advantage playing any team at any stage of the season It's a complete myth

Dunno about that.  I'd have to think there might be more favorable games to kick off the home campaign than hosting the champions.

Cant wait 

Seriously with a few clever signings and if the squad take to the Rodgers style of football reasonably quickly then there is no reason we cant compete from the off.

[Benny The Noon]

Let's be careful not to have over expectations this early by even talking about things like competing

Christ in the space of a month we're facing Manchester City, Arsenal and Manchester United.

It's the same every season with our supporters. New manager, same old expectations. Out of the picture in November, supporter unrest, calls for a change of manager, failure to get into the Champions League, manager is sacked, repeat cycle for the following season.

I'm not expecting anything next season, I've given up having expectations with this football club, you never know what's going to happen with our club.

And what?

so... to summarise...


its a conspiracy to make sure we have a bad start because the FA and the Premiership hate us. Its ok though, because brendan rodgers is going to make some fab signings and we might even be top of the league. though if we aren't, then we'll all hate the manager and make sure he gets sacked.

nice.
