I have a feeling that we have only won once on the opening day at St Mary's, that was against Leeds in 2011 in the Championship, it obviously wont happen again this season as we are away |  |

The Leeds win was the only opening day St Mary's win I can remember. You then need to go back to the Dell years, before we won opening games. Coventry away 1999 is the other one I remember. You have to go back to the 80s for home wins on the opening day. In 88, we beat west Ham 4 nil and QPR 5 1 the year before. |  |

For me personally, the1st ever PL game v Chelsea. Even though we lost, it was a magical moment.
Living overseas at the time I didn't witness it slowly rising out of the ground, and Matchday was my 1st actual viewing of it, although I'd obviously seen photos.
I loved The Dell and in over 30 years I had watched so many games from all parts of the ground, initially at the front of The Milton stood on a wooden stool to be able to see over the wall, then progressing to under The Toomers Choc Box, then Archers then both ends of under West Stand and then halfway line under the East Stand. Never made it under The Archers Bike Shed though. But being a part of a sell out 32000, in Block 1 right next to the chelsea mob, was an amazing experience and hopefully meant we could compete with the big boys with the improved revenue. It was a move that needed to be made, but I still truly miss those Dell Days!! |  | | |

So was i West Brom have always been a team that we seem to have done well against, we beat them on the opening day at the Dell in 1975 and then 6 months later in a replay in the FA Cup 5th round, the rest as they say is history | |

We’ll have to go some to get a win on the opening day this season.
I predict Spurs to push Liverpool for second place in the Premier League.
Man City will win it with Haaland and the left back soon to join from Brighton.
7/1 for a Man City/Spurs straight forecast.
WE BOLDLY MARCH ON BRAVELY |  |
