It’s an absolute impossibility. The rules permit us to ask, but we’ll almost certainly be refused on the basis that there’s no way to reschedule the games. I also don’t believe AFCON is a recognised international window so you doesn’t count towards the 3 players being away The Dude 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCD is always going to be better than no football, and a league being called early. It's all about the fans but. This is the best chance to get them back in according to the narrative lol. Forget that in 3 weeks weather will be horrendous or the government could easily have more restrictions in place. Honestly this once again shows how bad the game here is.

If (as is fairly likely given their opponents won't have played a competitive game for 2 months)either of us progress in Europe then the only available pre split date for the game from 2 Jan is 6th April - 3 days after we meet at Ibrox. This date would disappear if either of us progressed again in Europe along with the following midweek. This assumes no weather postponements and no cup replays (if they still apply?) It also assumes that the 500 crowd limit is removed in 3 weeks the chances of which you can be certain the Joint Response Group already know (slim to none) In an honest league with integrity they would transparently be laying out in detail all of the facts and stating that the risk of cancelling fixtures due to the 500 limit is not viable due to potential future fixture chaos and the fact that this 3 week circuit breaker is far more likely to be extended than not to be extended Moving the break should not even be up for discussion Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

St Mirren (who are rife with covid) can’t get a reschedule, but a team who want a chance to clear a few injuries up can. There’s not a hope fans are back in 3 weeks and everycunt knows it. Boxing Day, the Sheep and OF really help break up the two weeks locked in with the wife and kids. Body blow for the Christmas holidays.
