The amusing thing is, if we win, the Premiership could be locking in our (somewhat aging) plastic pitch for as much as the next two years. I know, as a business proposition, it would be shocking if we didn’t keep the plastic for the next season or two (see caveats below), as a relegation in either season would render it moot, and the spending to replace it wasteful. It’s also far from inconceivable that a vote to change course could occur during those two years. It will, if passed, and we get and remain up, result in a frantic project in May/June 2026, plus likely away games until late August of 2026,  it that’s all speculative. The manner of the decision regarding WHEN a grass pitch must be in place will be amusing, as the way the SPFL handled the Buckie Thistle matter shows they’re completely unreliable. Under one reading, it would have to be down before 1 April of the appropriate year, but that’s literally impossible in fitba unless you change it out a year early in anticipation…messy, as always.

I think we only found out as one of the full time staff is running the Edinburgh Marathon and was hoping for a mid afternoon kick off only to find out it was planned for so early. Worked out for us in the end but not great for the travelling fans, however if will give them more time after the game to get home and celebrate or commiserate.

I think I'd sooner eat my own elbows than listen to that.

Just say and il tell you if I've heard the same...Who cares what everyone else thinks they all want to know who you have heard.
