3fingersreid Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Given that both the Glasgow teams look like they will go through ( not guaranteed but likely) and given they’re both in the europa league, will the governing bodies have a solution to the potential fixture shambles similar to that which happened last year ? If they go through and are kept apart would the team that has a home tie on the Thursday be made to play on Saturday at 3pm ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hadn't looked at the fixture lists but surely after last year's debacle they don't have the semi finals on the weekend after a European week? A draw of us v. Celtic and Hibs v. Rangers would be a belter. Naturally we will be playing Kilmarnock in the first semi final. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The default is to assume they are stupid. Which is reasonable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would imagine both games to be on the same day, same pitch and most likely same time kick off for both. With no TV coverage and Hearts and one other team getting 5% of tickets. Between them.
