Obviously the manager wants some of these moved so we’re not playing 11 games in 31 days or whatever it works out as.

Just wondering if the Dundee game (Tuesday 14th) could be one where we just say we’re moving it. Like Celtic did last season - the SPFL confirmed it’s up to the home team even if the away side disagree it’s a home team decision?

Punt it into February or March.

Won't be allowed.
We play Dundee on the Tuesday and Celtic are playing on the Wednesday.
Strangely playing in the cup final will give the players an extra day's rest as we were due to play Aberdeen the previous day.

*I now see the Aberdeen game is rescheduled to midweek after the final!!!
A brutal weekend and weekend game rota until the 3rd January.

Don't know when that will be played now.
Hope we are not forced to play in midweek after the cup final.
We certainly have no space in our schedule before the final.

The Aberdeen game has been moved to Wednesday 22nd December

I just saw that and changed my post.
13 games in 44 days starting yesterday.

Our league position will suffer with this.
We simply don't have the size of squad required for the schedule.

FFS. Why can’t they just look ahead and do a bit of planning.
