    August derby

    Assume the derby game on 6th August will be moved for TV. Anyone know when that will be announced? Trying to organise a day out around it. Thanks a lot.

    I would expect the TV games for August to be announced over the next couple of weeks.

    I would think that the derby will be on Sky but then maybe not after what happened last season. They may decide to show Ross County v Celtic instead.

    Edinburgh v Dunfermline on same day at Meadowbank according to league website . Not sure if Meadowbank will be ready or if Edinburgh are going to play on Fridays again this season but would imagine that would be their biggest crowd of season along with when Falkirk visit .
    Hibs`147th birthday that day so hopefully a win to celebrate .

    I read that it might not be as the TV deal reverts to the original now there is no COVID-19 clauses. That means just 4 games at each ground on TV per season. If we go on the basis that Sky might want two Celtic, two Rangers and two Hearts then 6 into 4 doesn’t go. So it might not be on TV. Why the clubs only wanted 4 games on TV is beyond me. I know the argument was more Saturday 3pm kickoffs but when these games are not on, it is not good.

    18th August.

    They'll be playing on Sundays pretty much every week from 18th August until just before the World Cup starts in November.

    Who do you think the supporters should be told before?

    I know,you’d think the clubs & tv company’s would get the fixtures first so they can make any changes then announce them 2 weeks later with the 12:30 ,17:30 & Sunday games. It’s hardly hard thing to organise

    Whats not good about 3pm Saturday kick offs. Personally I attend every game so it not being on Sky doesn't bother me ad I refuse to subscribe silly money for little or no return...

    I might be making this up but I wqs sure I heard that Sky were bringing back Live Saturday evening games this year?

    With the game being just about six weeks away, we need to know shortly, flight prices are going up as are hotel prices. PETRIE get it sorted

    I’m assuming that the Albion Bar hospitality won’t be open for these games then with early kick offs…???

    Why not? Its only the alcohol element thats governed by the license and most of those who can't go to a game without a bevvy will still have sufficient alcohol in their addicted bloodstream from the night before surely😉

    Just because it was inevitable those games would get moved doesn't make it alright.

    Lol… you answered your own question…. No booze… I’m not sure they’d open it for only soft drinks?

    There's more to it than alcohol, like the food, and anyway with the early kick offs they open longer afterwards for the alkies to get wired in and become abnoxiously loud and slavering before heading home for their sunday roast or afternoon cream tea😉
