Everton 2014-15 Premier League Fixtures

Bit of a brutal start, but hey ho.

Man Utd have a really gentle introduction to their campaign by the looks of it.

Now I await the Europa draw!

wouldn't have minded them away early on tbh, they will have a totally different team and will take some time to gel you would think.

swansea have it a bit bad because they're bound to win in van gaal's first game, especially at OT, just like swansea seemed to have got the raw deal of them playing them 1st last season in moyes' first game, football just works like that sometimes,

I think for those who rely on increased match day income would be keen to have at least one a year.

I have no idea if it means we're stuck with it. If they get relegated we couldn't play them so could change then. Which means it's not concrete that we'll play once a year. But whoever wrote the algorithms for the fixture creating computer programme obviously sees it as a factor.

Is similar to why we quite often play Sunderland on boxing day. Don't want to make people travel too far but also don't want to make it a (possibly) heated rivalry (Liverpool or Manchester team) when people will be drinking twice as much. There are only a few teams that fit the parameters.

yep.

i don't think it'll matter too much with city this year, but we saw it last season when they lost their first 4 aways or something, new manager and new players etc. doubt they'll change much this season. but playing chelsea early may be good for us, new keeper you'd think (defence has played with cech behind for a long time now), fabregas will probably slot in nicely, but it'll be a bit of a new era with cole and lampard not in the dressing room and a new main striker.

arsenal could well be buying a new striker, new centre mid, new keeper, new full backs, players tend not to gel in well at arsenal straight away, they take time.


everyone will say the same about us though and rightly so.

Huge run of 13 easier (no such thing as easy with us) games from mid October (Villa) during which there are only City and Spurs that are 'big teams'
Over a quarter of the season with two big games, combine that with a good seasons end as well and it looks good.

Why would we have to have a Derby every calendar year anyway?

FTR we werehome first a lot in the past as well.62-63 69-70 85-86 86-87 Andy King Derby etc. The only ones which stick out not being home first are 84-85 and Campbell's winner at The Pit.

We know that and we have nothing against it - but it never happened 11 years on the spin back then! What we don't like is the idea that Liverpool have some sort of hold over the EPL fixture department and can just force us to go to Anfield later in the season, where they know full well it will be harder for us to get a result when both teams need one for their respective goals.
