    Next season's disrupted calendar

    It looks like there will be a break of around a month in the domestic schedule to accommodate the World Cup. The following extract from the BBC Sports site explains...

    "Clubs are being consulted over plans to hold 16 rounds of fixtures between 30 July and 13 November, before halting until 17 December - the day before the World Cup final.

    The final round of top-flight matches would be on the weekend of 27-28 May 2023, with the Scottish Cup and Premiership play-off finals likely to be on the first weekend in June.

    As part of the proposal - which is still to be finalised and approved - the League Cup final would be on 26 February, with the semi-finals in early January.

    The latter would follow a busy festive spell of fixtures, with clubs playing five matches in 15 days between 24 December and 7 January, including on Christmas Eve and Hogmanay."
