Everton 2014-15 Premier League Fixtures

[technojoe]

Good course of fixtures IMO can imagine bobby will mapping out the strategy for world domination as we speak

That's interesting. Totally never knew that was the reason.

Does this mean we are stuck with it like this forever?

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.

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.

Those are some meaty fixtures to start of with and we have a tricky run-in as well

All the sweeter it will be when that Premier League Trophy is in Jags hands on the 24th May

I think we've got an excellent December. Low demand oppos at a time of the year when attendances are normally down. Wouldn't want Sunderland (who normally bring a big crowd anyway) on Boxing Day..

Haha Sunderland last year. I never want to relive that. A 3 point banker. Such a nice day though, don't want to think about dropped points and what could have been last season.

See how our European group looks next.

When do we find out?

 

[ncblue]

Any game could change. Television and Europa league will dictate this. For a November game you won't know for sure til early October

Thanks. They don't make it easy trying to plan ahead though!

Nice 5 minute walk down the road for me on 1st 2015 to the Kc

 

[toffeejack]

At least our season starts with a nice relaxing AHH!! Then followed by two eureka moments, AHA! AHA!

 

[slimspek]

I actually prefer having some tough fixtures early on. The team and the new signings will still be figuring out how to gel and maybe the tough fixtures will get them revved up quicker.

Our Europa League game in-between the derby and a trip to United should be fun..

 

[detroiturk15]

12 points from the first 6 games could be nice. Hopefully they can finally beat West Brom for once.

 

[sheedys big toe]

Leicester away, Chelsea Arsenal at home first 3

Amazingly Anfield derby is first this year to

1st time for ages away derby, must of read my complaint's.

 

[BlueShark]

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!

apart from last season, when was the last time we haven't played them in september?

not shouting conspiracy or anything, but it is a bit questionable how the one time their best player isn't available in september, we don't play them in that month.
