Bold prediction out of you AC saying the team that finished 3rd from bottom last year will finish 3rd from top or higher this year!

8/9 new starting players including 6/7 A team players, if they'll ever do it it'll be this year

Teams want to get off to a good start and playing at home in your first 2 games helps. I think most teams would rather play at home in the first 2

While i agree that the new fixtures secretary is a dead on guy, it's probably a fair question, as you can imagine the reaction if the previous man started Connolly off with 2 home games, anyway i'm sure he's going to do a brilliant job.

There were 3 sets of fixtures generated, placed in separate closed envelopes and one was picked. This is the fixtures that you now see. He has started in a positive manner.
Also fair play to the last man, he did the job for years, thankless most of the time.

Pretty sure you can on the premier, not sure about other divisions. Write to them on Fb or go into them I'm sure you don't live too far away hibs7772!

For the same amount of effort it took to write that post you could have rang the bookies

I doubt they will give any favourable odds after Coole FC cleaned them out a few years back

really ya? I was thinking them taking bets on lower divisions would be dodgy for them

Nah he was down training Tuesday night but unfortunately I think he chose newmarket! Would have been a super signing.

Sure shuffleruns knows everything about football so leave him off! Major signing for newmarket as I said it probably makes them favourites for the league now!
