With the league fixtures out this Friday who do you want as our opponents ? For me I'd be happy with Kilmarnock at home - decent atmosphere with a big crowd. 

I would take that Munoz.  Alternatively Hibs or Rangers at Home.

Hamilton or St Johnstone at home, as then the game will most likely be a Saturday 3pm kick off and not moved around for TV.

The BT/Sky deal allows for a maximum of 4 home games per club before the split.

3 of those games (those against the 2 cheeks) will be moved for live TV leaving one other pre-split game.

That, most certainly, will not be against the Saintees or Accies, as you say. It'll be kept for later on in the season against Aberdeen or the Edinburgh duo.

Wasn't that our opening SPL fixture after our millennium season promotion ?

We lost that day and set the tone for the rest of that season. :(

Yeah I think it was , 1-0 was it not. 

There will be no easy games this coming season, so tbh I'd take anyone at home for the first game.

We could get a sell out if we can get a team who will fill that stand. Motherwell would probably be my choice. Will fill it and we would beat them.

We could get a sell out if we could get fans to fill the stands.

Where else, we should be unfurling the Championship flag

Spot on Chalky. Killie,  Hibs or Rangers ,unless GLS has arranged otherwizs,  at Home would bring a big crowd to the home of the Champions.

I would have said Killie at home, but seeing as how we play them in the League Cup (now a pre-season nonsense effectively), then Aberdeen at home would be good. They always have a superb visiting support and would be a pwoper Pwemier League opponent after years of pish like Morton racking up to the Twenny Twenny Wan.. :)

A lot of the time, the pish at our stadium was us.

Shhhhhh. The feelgood factor might read the forum. You hush up with talk of the bad old days at the shoebox, he’ll disappear up his own arse again if we’re not careful.... :P
