Nightmare Start For Leicester

So we kick off the 2017/18 season with a trip to Arsenal ! Not an easy start… and a ground we usually don’t pick up many points from is it !? Follow that up with a HOME game against a certain Mr Knockaert and his no doubt buoyant bubbly Brighton on August 19th at the King Power… not an easy opening 2 fixtures we think.

And to just make it an even harder start, the following week we are away at Man United on August 26th….. so it is not an easy first 3 games is it….

Oh and add to that Chelsea at Home, followed by Huddersfield away and Liverpool at home… we will play 4 of the top 6 clubs and 2 of the new boys in the first 6 games ! It will show us what sort of season we will be having !!

Here are how the fans reacted today to the fixture list :

Jack Whitman
“I’m glad to get the big teams out the way and have Arsenal first as I think they take a while to get up a running, more importantly our run in looks nice until Tottenham away last game of the season. Just wanted to add is it normal to start a season away and finish away?”

Bob Gallacher
“All tough but we have to play them some time best at the start of the season than half way through when they get fitter and dangerous I think we can get a draw against Arsenal”

Martin Tibbetts
“Will be nice to see Knocky at first home game……tough start all round…but good to get the biggest clubs before they hit proper form.”

Paul Schofield
“It might be tuff depends on the players we have”

Mick Lcfc Paget
“Every game in the prem is tough”

Terry Payne
“You have to play the top teams sometime so let’s get in early and if we lose a few don’t call for the manager to be sacked personally I can’t wait with my local team first up.”

Benny Royston
“Everyone calling it a nightmare start:
Arsenal: 5th
Brighton: Championship
Man U: 6th”

Jean Shejean
“Get the tough games out of the way…. good testing time for them…come on you blues”
