Pressing referesh every five minutes, waiting impatiently... sat there staring at the screen just waiting for the fixtures to be released. How many more of you was like that? Dying to know who your first and last game is against. Then your team's fixtures appear and your eyes are scanning the screen. Clocking the big games, as you mentally note them down. Trying to work out if after a big euro tie if you are away or at home, seeing what your run of games is like. Hard work being a football fan don't you think?
After checking the fixtures for Liverpool, I released that we haven't had a first game at Anfield for ages. It seems the trend is carrying on with this season. I'm not complaining, but it did make me laugh that straight away Fergie was moaning over having European ties then an away game... or something like that. Every season someone as to moan and groan about their fixtures. Be it a manager, player and i think every football fan complains over there fixture list. I remember last season, Liverpool had to play, Man Utd, Everton, Arsenal (three times) all in a space of a few weeks. Also, when your team is in Europe you have to add in the european fixtures, then the FA Cup fixtures and lastly the carling cup. All in all...if you have a club fighting on all fronts, and they get far in each competition... it will be a hard season.
The fixtures always being controversy or an arguement. But it's what adds to the excitement of the up-coming season. We are welcomed with the excitement of new players coming, the disappointment of our favourite player leaving. New kit releases, new fixtures, new merchandise... everything brand spanking new. A new season welcomes us with new possibilites... new hopes of maybe this is our season, maybe this is when we will put the failures behind us and push onto glory.
Football will always be the beautiful game... so lets raise a glass to the controversy, complaints, new players, old players, new managers and of course... the new kits!
Roll on...2008/2009 Season... lets the battle commence!
