The hun fans will still have to get to Hampden for 12. Obviously not as big a problem for them but I would have thought they would have preferred an afternoon kick off and no other game on the same day. They, with us will be making their way from the the ground while the tims and Jambos are making their way to the ground. Glasgow will be a nightmare.

Edit: Another thing. It looks like the last train from Glasgow to Aberdeen is at 21:45. If we'd got the late kick off there would be no chance of seeing the whole game and catching it.

Nae doubt Steven "super injunction" Gerrard will moan

Craig Levein has sunk the boot right in

Have to say, I’m starting to warn to the guy. Clearly an @rsehole but in the grand scheme of things, we’re on the same side


Edit for the link — https://www.google.com/amp/s/stv.tv/...eil-doncaster/

Thats a cracker of a statement from Levein.

Any comment from our wee sevco fluffers today?

See below for latest from SPFL website. I have put in bold the two relevant parts. You really couldn't make this sh1t up

Q: Could one of the ties not have been switched to the weekend after?

A: We looked at every possible alternative. Doing so would have created additional fixture challenges. Switching the Celtic vs Hearts tie until November 3 or 4 would have meant restoring the Celtic vs Motherwell Ladbrokes Premiership match to its original date of October 28. That would have created a situation where Celtic and Rangers would both be playing in separate stadia in Glasgow on the same day. Police Scotland would not have supported that.

Q: What has Police Scotland’s reaction been to this decision?

A: We arrived at this decision only after lengthy and exhaustive discussions with all our stakeholders, including Police Scotland. They have reassured us they are content with the decision to play both ties at Hampden on the same day and have the resources to manage the situation.

So they can play on the same day at the same stadium but not on the same day at different stadiums?

It's contractual. The weedgie must be at Hampden. Donkey cock can't change ghekey parameters of his contract

Although policing is needed it should not be organised just to suit them, as public servants they should be accommodating the requirements of the fans.
Strange we haven’t heard anything from either of the bigot brothers, wonder why that is?

So Levin has has larger nads than Milne?

Actually a nunnery probably has larger Nads than Milne and much that he is a fud he has said it like it is and Milne , Skinner and all the other Smithers should be cursed with an permanently itchy clacker and consigned to wearing boxing gloves

Thought the same. Surely the Tinks can't be happy with their kick off time? We shall wait and see if there are any comments from them or the team formerly known as Rangers.

How much does the 12 kick off really put people out?

It shouldn’t put too much Dons fans out if your theory of most of the away support coming from the central belt being true
