Would love a midtable team at home to start off the season.

Would provide a good early test, and would give us a chance to make a good start at home, a place where we lost the chance at a title last year.

Tell you the truth I want to start with top teams and get it over with, they are rusty anyways in the start of the season .

9 o' clock?
Tell me that's in half an hour, I have no idea how far in front Australia is >>

23 minutes

I want a couple of easy games to get our confidence back, then we get the tough ones over and done with (:

Your second fixture might be Liverpool ..
