Post Split Fixtures

Recommended Posts

Why has this splitty thingy thing not been scrapped?

Because complete idiots get paid to run Scottish football.

What purpose does it serve?

No doubt when the madmen farted out the idea they thought it would add excitement to the top and bottom halves of the league for the last 6 games, but all it really does is reduce the number of fixtures from 44 down to 38.

I'd rather have 44 games and no split as that would make a hell of a lot more sense while we still have a 12 team league.

They added another two teams to the league to stop Aberdeen getting relegated, but that would have meant too many matches per season, so they introduced the split to reduce the number of matches required.

Celtic have never played an extra away fixture since split started.......Now the league is more or less done and dusted, whats the betting that they get that now????

They have once, and wrote a letter of complaint about it.

Despite us continually having to do it.

We've had seasons where we have played a team 3 times either at home or away. It would be amusing if the fixture computer gave us a third home game against the shettlestons :sherlock:

:lol: Can you imagine the furore that would cause,Colin? Liewell and TLB would be taking us to the European High Court,and the Erskine bridge would have to be shut. :uk:

Was thinking the same thing the computer would be accused of giving us the extra home fixture to help out the club. What ever happens though we need to make sure Ibrox is a sell out for ALL our remaining fixtures.

Home - Dundee united, Motherwell & St Johnstone

Away - Them & Hearts

Ive already had Celtic on my away allocation, do Rangers deal with Tynecastle tickets?

We need to play 3 away so its 18 home and 18 away, so will go to one of Dundee united, Motherwell & St Johnstone for a third time.

Think the only possible variation would be Killie instead of Hearts, which would be an away one and leave the same situation.

Hearts sell direct to Rangers fans.

I would like to think our support would do their best to make it a full house for the remaining home games. :21:

And who would have thought you could get a sectarian computer? :lol:

i think they did once, and they bitched about it to the extreme. the fact we had the same issue about 3 times prior to that (and i'm sure we won the league each time against these odds), was irrelevant.
