Salvo Montalbano Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Shite. Away first AND last. And no Boxing Day or New Year game. Inverness and Ross County away in the same quarter (and Queen of the South). Inverness away on a Tuesday night for some reason. Shite. At least the first game should be tasty. https://spfl.co.uk/championship/fixtures/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pie Of The Month Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 I'm raging because the games aren't in the order I wanted them to be in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salvo Montalbano Posted June 15, 2018 Author Share Posted June 15, 2018 Well that's one way of putting it. Or you could say that for as long as I've been watching football you have either the first or the last game at home. And that there are 2 random midweek fixtures when Boxing Day and New Year's Day has no games taking place. The Premiership fixtures have all been messed about with too it looks like. Teams who were away to Rangers 2 times pre split doing so again this year when that wasn't meant to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sick in the Basin Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Delighted that our second game of the season has a good chance of taking place and not shunted cos of some glamour friendly Celtic v Finn Harps at Toryglen ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parsforlife Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 No new year or boxing day games yet midweek games scheduled is absolutely bonkers. Inverness away on a tuesday is abit shit but i guess they have to play someone on the midweek and unless they were to schedule 2 of the derby's midweek it will have a long trip for somebody Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madton Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Yeah unusual for us to have our first and last game at home, but will take it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xj2011 Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Two long trips to the Highlands* in the space of 2 weeks, twice in the season, is only one notable oddity, not to mention a home and away game to start and finish the season. In my 30 odd years of following football this is the first time I have seen such a thing. *suits me as I am based up north, but a shame for fans wanting to travel from Greenock and surrounding areas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 It says a lot about the way Scottish football is run that they don't schedule matches on two of the biggest earning dates - even when Christmas and New Year being on a Tuesday makes it ideal for having four fixtures. Which would also remove the need for papping teams halfway round the country on a midweek, twice. Sack whoever oversees this annual shambles.

It's a 3 hour drive. Other countries laugh at us complaining about the distance because its not actually very far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't envy your fans making the trip every other week, in fact you deserve massive respect for doing so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
