there'sonlyoneamoruso 1,724 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Zaliukas and Mohsni probably. Maybe Aird if he isn't injured. Possibly Peralta too? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nedged 58 Posted September 1, 2014 Author Share Posted September 1, 2014 And your point is?We'll end up with a mid-week fixture quite unnecessarily. Which won't help the team or the fans and could lead to the dl three games in a week routine with the way TV dictates game times.If we cannot take on a team at the bottom of the second division with our resources, then god forbid suspensions and injuries in the championship!

onefootwillie 1,518 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Unfortunately even playing East Fife I have no great conviction we would win without any of the players that are away on international duty Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kplfishtank 4,656 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Was the original discussion where this was done to death beyond your comprehension?i think the OP is asking how many players have been called up now most squads have been announced, ive not seen any more than McLeod`s name mentioned, if thats the case then we should not have been allowed to cancel this match. However im not too upset as if the game was on original date i wouldnt have made it, midweek trip will suit me but not others. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't call games off on a hunch that a player will be called up. They need to have actually been called up before it'll be permitted.

Wearethepeople72 1,845 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Obviously we are going to postpone the game. Why would we play the game with players missing when we can play it with our whole squad? It's not our job to make sure as little games as possible are played midweek. It's about results.

Shiels not in the NI squad and no games listed for either Tunisia or Honduras. So maybe someone at Ibrox can confirm who the three players are?

If a certain criteria is met the match will be cancelled on request. We met the criteria so made a request.
