Half expecting most of these to be on another day, mind...

Interesting things:  Our first home game is to Chelsea and our last to Arsenal.  So not much in the way of an easy start or finish.  Also, look at those oddball games on a Tuesday in February and March.  What's that all about???

I can imagine the tickets for the Liberty will be in very short supply if we're on to win the league on the last day.

Umm, Loserpool at home on mi Birthday...i wonder if i can manage to get a ticket for that game
