By the end of the Year we'll have played 7 at home and 14 away, with a run of 3 home games out of 15 matches. All because we've been unlucky to get away games in all of the cup competitions which have coincided with originally scheduled home league games. That's just the luck of the draw. We just need to get on with it. Edited October 23, 2022 by glensmad 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even when there's an open date there's obviously a struggle in having a suitable club free and willing to move the date. 19/11 was filled in but with another home game. 29/10 hasn't been replaced as it doesn't look like anything could be arranged. 20/08 @ KRR due to SCC 17/09 @ Cumnock due to Scottish Cup 22/10 @ KRR due to Scottish Cup 29/10 @ Arthurlie due to Arthurlie's SJC game 19/11 @ Troon due to Troon's SCC game, replaced by home v. Petershill Doesn't help balancing Scottish/SCC/SJC across different dates. 26/11 v. Darvel now postponed due to Darvel's Scottish Cup game + potential Pollok Scottish Cup game. Maybe something could be arranged for then if Pollok get knocked out tomorrow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were several possible fixture switches possible to give Pollok a game on 29/10 in place of the Arthurlie match. Pollok, Largs, Kilwinning, Meadow, Cambuslang and Clydebank were all left without a fixture, with the other Premier Division clubs due to be playing SJFA Cup ties. Largs (A) or Cambuslang (A) to redress the home/away imbalance would have been ideal for us as we are/were due to be playing the other 3 within a couple of weeks either side of that date anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Free week on 20th August because of the South Challenge Cup in which you got a bye. Free week on 29th October (this Saturday) because your club didn't want a fixture after being asked if they did. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Largs v Cambuslang had already been set up before it was known who was all going to be available. So, only 4 were left without a fixture. Pollok v Meadow was not an option as it is already set for 5th Nov. Pollok had played Clydebank and Kilwinning fairly recently so those weren't options either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
