We'll have 4 midweek fixtures before the split and probably a couple of free Saturdays too! It's a mad, mad world.... - view external link

I think in this climate it is a disgrace how this has been arranged by the sfa and spfl and the only consolation for us is that its away games being affected. With the financial climate were in and I no its our fault for losing cup games but to have to play on only 3 weekends out of 7 from beg of February to middle march should never be allowed to happen. The league cup should be played out before xmas instead of playing Scottish cup games in november and their should not be 2 different cups played consecutively over a 2 week period twice within a month. Once again it shows nobody gives a hoot about the fans as people who go every weekend have to miss out 4 times in 7 weeks and that should never happen in the middle of a season

Mix my gripe is nothing to do with weather its the fact that in the middle of a season we have 4 free weekends in 7 because the spfl and sfa decide to run 2 cup competitions in consecutive weeks within a month of each other so if your fixtures turn up like ours you have 4 weeks in total off.

But my point is if we split the cups as you suggest that might be fine but that inactivity could still happen if we hit really sh1te weather whilst the cups are being run. There is no ideal situation we could always try to avoid it happening by being anything other than utter p1sh in the cups then we wouldn't be sidelined and its just been our luck that league opponents have been doing well in cups when we are due to play them.

Yes, that's an absolute shambles. It should never been allowed to happen by those who run our game.
