    Scottish Cup date - will it be 6th or 7th?

    I see Scotland play England at Murrayfield around 430pm on Sat 6th Feb.

    Surely the police will ask for the Hibs v Hearts game to be played on Sunday 7th Feb?

    And you can tell I've got top loyalty points BUT couldn't make 6th due to other commitments but I can make the 7th

    Does anyone know when we are likely to find out what date/time the game is?

    It'll be the 7th because Scotland are playing England at Murrayfield on the Saturday.

    I've heard it may also be the Friday night as BBC have first dibs on Scottish Cup games but wouldn't be able to show the game on Saturday due to the Rugby & Sky Sports hold the Sunday slots for the Scottish Cup

    I don't think it's been mentioned before but I think it will be the 7th as Scotland take on England at Murrayfield on the 6th. Oh and an early kick off time of 12.30pm.

    You heard it here first.

    Very unlikely the Police would allow this to be a Friday night KO, more likely Sunday as early as poss, 12.30pm

    Hearts vs Hibs in the Scottish Cup on a Friday night.

    Thousands of English ruggerbuggers boozing it up in the City Centre.

    That could be lively.

    Again that would make no odds to it being staged on a Friday. Champions League games are a Wednesday then the team plays the following Saturday.

    However the potential for trouble is there with the English being up for the Rugby. Not sure what BBC will do if they want to show the tie of the round as as i said before, they have first dibs on each round for TV

    Would there really be much trouble with Rugby Fans?

    Of course not, it would be the big bad football fans fault anyway if there was any trouble.....

    [QUOTE=macca70;4544388]SuperBowl Sunday, glad I already have Monday booked off.[/
    Shaping up for another great Super Bowl Sunday like last year when we had Murray v Djokovic in the morning in the Australian Open. Celtic v Rangers in the Scottish League Cup Semi-final in the afternoon. And the Superbowl at night.

    It has to be the Sunday with the rugby on Saturday. Nelson has already booked his team in to Murrayfield to show them exactly how he expects them to play the following day in the Derby.

    I honestly would have thought that trouble with Rugby Fans was highly unlikely.

    I'm not particularly a follower of rugby myself but egg chasing Fans in general seem fairly harmless.

    But occasionally obnoxious.

    Lumping a bunch of pished-up angry football fans in amongst them could be a recipe for disaster.

    It would have to be a 3pm kick off on a Tuesday or Wednesday as the police could obviously not allow an evening kick off.

    They'll stage it at a time when there isn't a major international profile fixture with 67000 others in town?

    Why is it the fitba fans always cause bother or deemed angry?!
