Rangers potentially facing 21 days between league matches?

[BlueNoseBlueblood]

Wonder if they'll be allowed to speak this time

Aye, should be called a Briefing

 

[govan_derriere]

If Livi make the Cup Final we have no game between Kilmarnock on 13th Feb and St Mirren on 6th March?
Or am I missing something?

We play Antwerp away on 18th Feb and at Ibrox on 25th, so this is a bonus.

 

[Todd The Prod]

Yeah, but it’ll work out good for us getting into the Europa QF, and the scum too.

Oh wait...

Hahahahahahahaha

Tbh I’d rather get as many league games in before Antwerp. There is a covid risk with travel. I don’t see why games can’t be brought forward like Celtic changed their Hibs match?

 

[Caniggit]

Although its almost nice to give the players a breather I must admit it would be bittersweet. Rangers games are keeping me going and im already gutted we don't have a game next weekend.

Im the same, back working all week waiting for the football at the weekend, nothing else to look forward to.

As ridiculous as the celtic match being moved was, it was permitted because it was moved to within the same weekend as it was scheduled (Monday 11th counted as within the same weekend slot as Saturday 9th).

There is no precedent for just moving a game forward to a totally different week than it's scheduled for, unless the original date for it is already unavailable for some reason.

Maybe they could look at the rules. They need to get this league finished. Only the SPFL would be so bawheeded to not be flexible I guess.

No, send in your questions by email, then sit back and listen.

So that will be the emails that go missing and then miraculously appear after the meeting has ended.

 

[naefrittersleftpal]

When you see our upcoming games hibs looks the hardest then we have a right good run of easier games. Getting through December and January has been huge for us

 

[london_bluenose]

Maybe they could look at the rules. They need to get this league finished. Only the SPFL would be so bawheeded to not be flexible I guess.

Who do you want us to play though? By that stage we will only have a handful of fixtures left to play before the split.

 

[Billy751]

Wouldn't be the worst thing in the world if we kept that weekend empty or played Brora at Ibrox given that its in between the 2 Antwerp games.

Cove you mean

 

[Laudrups Barnet 55]

It is. But when we are closing in on this title 3 weeks without playing in the league is a horrendous thought

Absolutely. All I can think of is the three weeks without a game before the 2016 SCF. Need to keep sharp

[ao2]

It's not a bad thing really as we have Europa League and Scottish Cup games that will be played in that period so it's not like we'll be idle. We've got such a lead that we're not going to fall behind to them so it could actually work out quite nicely if those cup games go well.

But there will be cup games so we won't be going 3 weeks without a game.

 

[JW1988]

That's good for our Europa League games.

Just imagine we won that as well. Tbh I actually kind of forgot about EL for a while there in my euphoria at how well we’ve done in the league.

 

[Derek1960]

Wonder if they'll be allowed to speak this time

Zoom owned by the Chinese. Maybe the fat Japanese is Chinese. Neither can be trusted. These days, I mean China and Liewell

 

[Roger Daltrey]

If things are not gonna improve rapidly on the Covid front.

I'd either crap the SC or try and complete it over a few weeks period, in April.

Problem is all the scheduled league games on TV, they cant really change about.

wouldnt fancy crapping the scottish cup its a fair size, be pretty painful id imagine

Hello mate just noticed you’ve got the KO times the wrong way round for the Antwerp games so thought I’d let you know in case you’ve got them in spreadsheet for planning work etc.

Unusually we are away 8 and home at 5.55 due to the way the TV scheduling pairs have worked out.

 

[ICA_86]

10th February looks free for us, not sure about Livi’s schedule though.

I just want to play the 7/8 SPFL games needed to win it ASAP.

Livingston play Hamilton that night which is their game from this weekend

That depends if the Scottish Cup resumes

 

[Renoranger]

And hopefully still with a 23 point gap

The yahoos will drop points at Aberdeen and Kilmarnock for a start.

Might even force Hamilton to a draw this Wednesday.

A trip to Dubai out of the question?
