Fans convinced Premier League is ‘RIGGED’ after 2023/24 fixtures are released
FURIOUS football fans are convinced the Premier League fixture list has been fixed.
Supporters have accused the Prem of rigging the opening day of the season to ensure Burnley manager Vincent Kompany takes on his former club Manchester City.
Wolves fans are also outraged at being drawn away at Manchester United on the opening day, while they also face a trip at Anfield to conclude the season yet again.
Liverpool played Wolves on the final day of the 2021/22 campaign with the Midlands club facing a Big Six side every season since their promotion to the Prem in 2018.
Supporters have vented their frustration with the fixture Gods, taking aim at their opening and closing games.
One wrote: “No surprise at our opening game against United away and our last game against Liverpool away you just knew that was coming!!”
Another added: “Away on a Monday night to start. Away on Boxing Day again. Away at Liverpool on the final day again.
“Getting beyond a joke now, sure they should be splitting those fixtures between home and away for the fans.”
Other Prem fans are also convinced the fixtures have been rigged with some unhappy United have been drawn at home first up for another season.
One fan said: “Man Utd at home? This stuff is rigged”

A third wrote: “This is rigged lol. Vincent Kompany’s Burnley facing off against Man City being game 1 of the season. I can already see the marketing ads.”
Another commented: “Yeah I’m calling it, these draws are rigged.”
There is no evidence or suggestion that the fixtures have actually been rigged.
