The Scottish Cup tie against Inverness is due on Saturday 5 March, and we are due to play The Rangers on Monday 7 March, a game that has aleady been moved to accommodate TV. There is also the league game against Livingstone due the following weekend, when we are at Hampden for the League Cup Final.

The way I see it the Scottish Cup game should take precedence over the league game.

It's been moved to April.

The club said so when the TV games were announced. Something along the lines of if either team get through, the game will be played on xx April

Yeah but all we need to do is leave the sprinklers on, claim a waterlogged pitch, and then have a rest one week , apparently it works wonders when you need to win a big game coming up.

It's brilliant that games are being moved because we are doing so well rather than sitting idle because opponents are in cup competitions. Hopefully we'll need another fixture shift when the semi-finals are scheduled. Due to be playing Falkirk on the Friday night (15th April) and Rangers the next midweek (19th or 20th). Semis are scheduled for 16th/17th. Will be a hard game against the cup holders though.

So the Rangers game will be the 3rd (?) last game of the season now?

Huge if it's still tight.

No 'Big Team' would ever contemplate such a thing...?
