According to the Rose it is at hibs request and they are expecting a full squad.
Strickland should be a good test for Darren and Paul.

There are around 10 pubs in Linlithgow with the west port, black bitch, and the rose club it’s self being the closest. Personally disappointed to be missing this as I’m on holiday.

Linlithgow's Black Bitch
The burgh's coat of arms features a black bitch chained to an oak tree on an island, and those born within the town are known as "black bitches".[6] In his account of a tour of Scotland, published in 1679, an English gentleman, Thomas Kirk, described the arms of the town as "a black bitch tied to a tree, in a floating island. We enquired for a story about it, but could meet with none: their schoolmaster told us it proceeded from the name of the place. Linlithgow, in Erst [Gaelic], is thus explained: Lin signifies Lough; Lith, black; and Gow, a hound."[7]
A more recently recorded legend relates that the bitch was a black greyhound whose master was sentenced to starve to death on an island in the loch. She used to swim from the town every day with food for him. When this was discovered she was chained to a tree on a different island to suffer the same fate as her master. The townspeople took the animal's loyalty and bravery as symbolic of their own. The local pub named "The Black Bitch" is reputed to be one of Scotland's oldest pubs.[8]

I always thought of the name "black Bitch" being related to the nearby greyhound track if I am correct/ My Auld faither used to take me there. pretty sure it was in Lithgae ? I can remember a guy at the track saying to my Da, that wee bitch wi' the number 3, runs at Wallyford, I think it has a white chest and they've painted ower it! .was there a track there, or I am confused with Armadale?

Handy one for me
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, vodka in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming, "WOO HOO what a ride!"

Wonder if they'll need to make this all ticket. Attendance for Rose match against Raith in Scottish Cup was given as 2,250 - I could see us topping that and the ground was pretty full that day.
