craigkillie Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 You can basically plug them in from what's given surely? More or less every Saturday in between those dates, excluding those for the Scottish Cup, then chuck in a couple of New Year ones and however many non-UEFA midweeks are needed to fill the gaps. You're not going to get more than that right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starryfish Posted April 18, 2022 Author Share Posted April 18, 2022 Thanks, I've always found it odd that this kind of information isn't widely shared before fixtures are released, would maybe allow fans to plan their lives a bit easier. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ropy Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 Slightly different but will the fixtures assume the same top six will occur as this year, that seems to be the method, or will they reposition Aberdeen and Hibs on the basis they cannot have a shocker two years in a row? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't they just swap the 1st 33 fixtures round? Teams you played twice at home this season will only be once next. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect there’s only one fixture that’s given that degree of reverence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're asking so fans could plan their weekends out in advance but if the dates were released now - they still wouldn't be able to as Sky/BT can and do change dates of FIXTURES for viewing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lubo_blaha Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 Fully aware of that however an indication of potential match day dates would be helpful.They’ve revealed when the league starts, when it ends and when it stops for the World Cup. From there, you can work it out with probably 90+% accuracy. Why would anyone need more details than that at this stage, given that the teams aren’t even confirmed yet? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point is that this information is bound to have already been decided - why couldn't the SPFL have released it when they made their announcement about key dates? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take the pre-World Cup stage for example. Season starts on July 30th, stops on November 12th. That's 16 weekends, the international break is the weekend of 24th September, the other 15 weekends will be used for SPFL fixtures, thats 15 matchdays. November 12th is MD16 so there must be one round of midweek fixtures before the World Cup. We know the dates for the League Cup, European fixtures and the international break. The only free midweek after all those are taken out is, from a quick glance, November 8th/9th. So presumably that will be MD15. There might be a mistake or two in there but that's more or less how its going to work out. I'm sure you can do the same with the post World Cup section, might have to take a guess at Scottish Cup dates but you can predict them with a reasonable degree of confidence based on previous years. Its not like there are a huge number of gaps in the calendar, its safe to assume that every weekend and all but a couple of midweeks during the season will be used for something. The point being that they more or less have been released, you just have to do a bit of working out yourself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray Patterson Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 The SPFL to be fair to them have always been fairly transparent with fixture dates, certainly more so than some other leagues. I mean they announce the fixtures in early June anyway (with the first 10 TV selections included) so it's hardly a massive wait 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm aware there's quite a bit of disruption and change from the normal happening due to the World Cup. There will be 38 x match dates planned. You then simply have to perm them with the published dates for the Europa/Conference leagues, and wait til 4 days notice on a weekly basis to see if Rangers want to change them. Simple really.
