What are the initial reactions to Liverpool's 2026-2027 fixtures?
This podcast is part of the Sports Social Podcast Network.
It is a fictionless reaction show. The fixtures are here. It feels like the season has already just finished, but we're looking ahead to next season as well. We will be doing bits of transfer stuff on the show as well because that is all go. But a wick here with Craig. Craig, it's funny because I reckon if you'd have asked me to watch another game of football after the end of the season, I'd have rather stabbed my eyes out than watch that team again. But new manager, a couple of new signings, the fixtures are out. I'm like, get me to fucking Newcastle. Here we go.
book them chains make one off I know it's mad it's mad that you see the same list of teams again just in a slightly different order and you're like oh fucking let's do this we're gonna win the league at home on the final day we're gonna lift the league title then uh newcastle always an exciting start i don't know whether it's what the the new manager would have fancied uh i'd be interested to know his records uh newcastle because i'm i've watched um kirges and and ariola um you know when it when it's in james's park before but um you know in terms of the fixtures obviously forest at home is a team who have come and beat us twice over the past two years at anfield so that's that's in itself difficult um but i'm just uh
yeah it's mad it's mad just how quickly you're the way in which you think about Liverpool and watching this team flips Yeah Newcastle away it's a tough start but it's a lively one it's a great trip I imagine you know with it being August there'll be a few stay over and stuff like that it's obviously an interesting one because you know Isak And, you know, Touchwood should be fit and ready to go, hopefully, after the great pre-season. And, obviously, the new signing, Munoz, as well, who Newcastle were after. So, it'll be a tasty one.
How do the new manager and signings impact Liverpool's upcoming season?
Half-Hall Sunday as well. That's the only one where we know when we're playing Half-Hall Sunday. We're not popular on the TV.
in Newcastle at the minute we find that out last season I know the only people that ate more than us is their own board to be fair the fixture was a similar time last year because we had a decent night out in Newcastle after Rio's late winner but at that point last year I thought Liverpool were going to win absolutely everything I was on top of the world at that point but looking at the fixture list I mean it's a decent start for Liverpool yeah and i i want i i wanted it there's no easy games let's not say easy games but some people say it doesn't matter who you play you got to play everyone i'm not i'm not in that camp really i do i do believe that fixtures pile up over the winter and if you can get if you can avoid playing top sides back to back that's a positive decent start and a decent running looking at the end there i mean we all love brighton away i mean you know how much you look right in the way it's the last away of the season
in the sunshine. And then I look in there, Liverpool play Bournemouth at Anfield, and Iriola's going to show his Sophie to his old club and be like, nice one for that. Brilliant.
It's OK, it's done the full season. See you later.
I am really excited. I mean, you know, you've got to play everyone, and this season didn't go great, but... There's absolutely no point in dwelling on that now. It's gone. New manager, new set of fixtures. Let's go and win the title.
It's funny, isn't it? Because as a fan, you look at it both in terms of what will be best for the new manager and the team in terms of a title charge or what gives you the best start, the greatest end, blah, blah, blah. And then you start to look at it on a personal note, don't you? It's like, what games are you looking at and thinking you're most excited about here?
I mean, Holloway on Boxing Day, I'm more excited about than what it should be. There's a decent little pub there. We wait Richie, his missus has got a pub just outside that we went to like years and years ago. And we saw her at a wedding and she was like, come down, I'll put a band on and all that.
