AS YOU’VE GONE about your business this year, something has seemed lacking.
We’re right, aren’t we?
Something you couldn’t quite put your finger on, something, was out of place. Well, here’s your reminder: you were missing the Premier League. That little nagging feeling, maybe that you’d left the immersion on or the back door unlocked… It was the football the whole time.
Don’t worry, though, because it’s all back (and all to play for) from tomorrow. But before it returns, here’s how to get your house in order for the season ahead…
1. The kit
We’re talking a shiny, brand spanking new replica jersey. Go on. You deserve it. This is basically your Christmas, and that means treats become essentials.
Have you got your team picked and ready to go? Make sure you share around the link – these things are always a lot better with a group of mates on board. For the competition as opposed to the camaraderie, you understand.
This will be absolutely essential for your rolling calendar of “reasons why you aren’t available on a random date in October” (see below).

As important as God's own Filofax, even thisbugslife.comthisbugslife.com
4. A strictly-updated calendar
Start writing in all the weddings, birthdays and events you’ve got lined up over the upcoming Premier League months – so you can start making your excuses to get out of them. Some things are more important, eh?
Boost your hope levels with some YouTube clips of your team’s most memorable matches and some pub trivia friendly facts about your newest super signing.
The match wouldn’t really be the same if you were watching it alone, after all. And, of course, don’t forget the obligatory beer hat for the big opening game.
And one thing you’ve definitely got to get sorted is your sports subscription, of course. You can watch Man United vs Swansea this Saturday at 12:45 on BT Sport 1, part of the Setanta Sports pack in Ireland. Sign up for Setanta’s €1 offer here.
