The Treasurer Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 It won't be on the Saturday at 3pm that's for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dallas Green Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 (edited) I remember Richard Keys once saying games are never moved for the benefit of TV ? I genuinely hope this stays on the Saturday because we are playing Rangers on the Wednesday before are we not? I'm sure it's; Aberdeen home 30th March Rangers away 3rd April Hibs home 5th April Edit: According to the Hearts website, the above fixtures are correct. Can't see how we will play on the Friday.

a11ank Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 To be fair, this will be the last derby of the season. Hibs will be in the bottom 6 and probably struggling to stay up (I hope). As it is the last derby of the season and we are due to give them a good old rodgering, I hope as many people see it as possible!

ceefax Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 (edited) Interesting that this date is being talked about because there is a full fixture card scheduled for Wednesday April 3rd. We have Rangers at Ibrox. So our fixture would have to get moved to Tuesday 2nd. However it’s Celtic Rangers the weekend before, so if that got moved to Sunday lunch time then we wouldn’t be playing Rangers on the Tuesday it would be the Wednesday and therefore unable to play on the Friday night.

Lord Beni of Gorgie Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Hibs Rangers the week before. Depends if that games on a Sunday. If not our Ibrox visit could yet be moved to the Tuesday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His name is Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 The English TV games games haven't been announced for April yet. The Derby will be arranged that.

Ribble Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Can’t see it being the Friday and if it’s not 3pm Saturday then I’d happily have it at half 5 again!

queensferryjambo Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Possibly mentioned before but I thought all the last games before the split had to be played on the same day at the same time?

There's also been a number of years where sides that have wen't further in the cups/had cup replays so have been a game or behind when it came to game week 33 (Also sure there is a free week inbetween to account for such things) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koolkeith Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 All derbies are televised so we’ll never get a Saturday 3pm again. 5.30 again or 12.30 on a Saturday would be ideal. Not a fan of Sunday games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
