SPFL announce contingency plan for clubs being involved in both finalsPosted at 13:30
As it stands, the Ladbrokes Premiership play-off final will take place on Thursday May 19 and Sunday May 22.
The scheduled date for the Scottish Cup final is Saturday May 21.
The SPFL has now announced that ff a club is a participant in both, the dates of the Ladbrokes Premiership play-off final will be adjusted to Tuesday May 17 and Wednesday May 25.

Credit where it's due that is a sensible decision. It means IF we get to both that we'll be playing Tuesday, Saturday, Wednesday which isn't too bad at all. Any player wanting to play at a high level will need to get used to that kind of schedule.

If we get to the SC final the SPFL should just give us automatic promotion regardless of our previous results in the play off games. Who cares if there is an odd number of teams in the Premiership and Championship next season. If Dundee Utd beat us in the semi final the SPFL should relegate them straight away for having the audacity to dash my Scottish cup dreams for another year. :agree:

That's as good as we were going to get. Let's make the 22nd to the 25th May the best four days in Hibernian's history. :aok:

Win the Scottish Cup and can't celebrate at home for the last match as it will be away.

Pump whoever it is in the first leg and a great send off to Hampden should we get there. Lose by a couple and morale for the final would be crap.

I would still take the Scottish over promotion though. Just this one time.

Still think the dates could be changed for all the play offs, due to BT having the contract
As an example Hearts are at home on Saturday 14th May, if we finish 2nd, we'll be at home that day. Think they are an early ko

Then move them. Their game means **** all.

It's just a day out for sex offenders.

We must take priority on this occasion.

It's almost like the spfl have put a bit of thought into this.
