 Fixtures Headache
Topic Originator: Malcolm Canmore  
Date:   Sun 8 Mar 08:57

Don`t want to get ahead of ourselves, but playoff final scheduled for Thursday May 21 and Sunday May 24. Scottish Cup final scheduled for Saturday May 23.

Possibility that DAFC and/or St Mirren could give the football administrators a real problem.

cant remember what year it was but it has been planned for in the past, think it was the first leg gets moved to the Wednesday and the second leg moved to the following Tuesday, so the 20th and 26th.

a lot of results have to happen but it could be Dunfermline v StMirren in both....

different headache for the club will be the run of games in April with the StJohnstone game now having to be re-arranged and also the likelihood of the Airdrie game being moved for international call ups, 8 games in 28 days will be another big ask

It’s a great headache to have considering we were just about dead and buried not so long ago genuinely don’t think I’ve ever been more proud of being a pars fan as I am right now see you all at Hampden boys

I was puzzled that the date for the Ayr game was set last week for early April. When we`d been told we had to play the Partick game at 6 days notice to avoid a pile-up late in the season, I assumed that 17th March would be the date for the Ayr game.

Normally they try not to use the last midweek if possible, but we`re now going to have a minimum of two midweek games in April and possibly a third if we need a postponement for international call-ups at the end of March. We surely don`t want to have to play midweek before the semi, which is our biggest game in a number of years. If we do ask for a postponement on international weekend, we could really do with one of the games being brought forward to a midweek this month. The St Johnstone game will almost certainly be our second BBC Scotland game so could realy do with getting a date for that fixed soon.

I’m not sure there’s a Friday night available for the St Johnstone game. BBC Scotland don’t tend to show games any other night.
