Next seasons fixtures announced.

The Premier Leagues frankly outrageous stance on not letting unofficial club site reproduce fixtures without paying many thousands of pounds for the honour means that i can't actually tell you all the fixtures, but here's some highlights.

We open with a home game against Spurs on the 17th of August and our season ends with a home tie against Manchester United on the 11th of May 2003.

The away game aginst Liverpool is on the 21/12/2002, with the home tie not being until the 19th of April. A relegation struggle could be made much worse by a run-in that features Liverpool, Chelsea and Manchester United in out last five games, but we won't need to worry about that now will we.

Ok, thats the highlights, you can find the full fixture list here.
