Apparently not.
You would think they would open the gates so we can get a swaatch

They are maybes, just maybes, both running the rule over some potential signings that the great unwashed need not feel entitled to see or are trying tactics they would rather keep to themselves?

Seems awfy close to the cup game unless its to give game time to the likes of Gray. I'd doubt we would have any trialists?

It will just be a game for fitness, I’d love to go, but understand why it’s closed doors, would need security etc

Think it’s a good idea just to dust off any cobwebs from being away.

I only just thought of that joke and expected a wag to have answered "you"

[FilipinoHibs]

According to Motherwell CEO on off the ball full first teams work outs to get sharp for cup ties at weekend.

[Robbo6-2]

Genuinely no idea why there is a break for so long that we feel need to arrange a friendly with team in our league

Yep, and made sense.

Wasnt the break originally introduced to allow Celtic to make even more money by doing a far east tour?

Then the league pretended that it was to give the teams and pitches a break?

A break that they only needed because we played about a hundred matches in December to accommodate the Celtic break?

Those in charge are fuds..........

[JimBHibees]

Given the amount of rain possibly a fair chance this could be moved to protect pitch.

It was nothing to do with Celtic.

It's the clubs that want the break. Fuds.

A few years ago teams were allowed to postpone an early season game to accommodate a friendly. In practice, it was usually Celtc that did so and whoever they were scheduled to play had to put up with it. Common sense seems to have prevailed as this no longer happens.

Was it not also the case that Celtic didn't postpone their home game thus costing the other team a Saturday income without comoensating for the loss of revenue from a midweek fixture?

It had to be a home game that was postponed. Worst rule I’ve ever seen but symptomatic of the thinking behind our game, looking out for the top 2 in the league.

I think that the first time it happened Celtc had already arranged their friendly before the league schedule was announced, so it might have been the case.

Scottish football has to look after the interests of the Ugly Sisters. If they disappeared, we'd end up with a competitive league which any one of half a dozen clubs could win in any given season and who would want that?

Did we not do it for a Sunderland friendly where it all kicked off up the town.

I thought it was put in place as Scottish clubs were missing due to the early start of the then SPL the opportunity of getting gubbed by mid level English premiership sides who had pre seasoned in the far east doing lucrative kickabouts , who wanted a tougher close to home workout (and a win) before their season kicked off. The OF tended to be away as invited guests of Brentford or Port vale IIRC
