Looks like good fixtures to start the season off!

At least its at home against a team thats never beat us

At last we start off at home!!  It's been about 4 years since we started the season with a home match.

 

 

I'm liking the start to the season. 

 

 

Seems like they've mixed up the schedule too as opposed to playing 3 blocks of the same fixtures.

 

I'll be on my honeymoon while we play at tynecastle for first time of the season.

 

 

Civil partnership? 

Hang on, this seasons santa game.

Inverness CT v Aberdeen, 15:00

 

:ultras: :wino: :beers: :dance:

Fucking cracking set of fixtures for a change. Gives us a great chance to get some early points on the board. Roll on!

tough run in before the split, 3 out of 4 games away to teams in the Top Half from last year.

 

Looking foward to the season start, any chance of Rangers/Motherwell/Celtic or Hibs being in European action when we play them??

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAS!!

 

It'll be a Sunday KO though chimpy, and you know it to be true.

I think Rangers have their first European fixture inbetween playing us and Celtic.

For once that would suit me, I'm only getting two days off a month and they're both sundays!

As long as we get plenty notice I'm no fussed either, but it will be 9 days or some such shite again.

Wouldn't that be around the time of the final group game of the uefa cup?

 

So the Motherwell game will be on Sunday.

 

And anyway, who would give a shit about Inverness v Aberdeen with this set of fixture?

 

Falkirk v Celtic, 15:00

Hamilton v Motherwell, 15:00

Hearts v Dundee Utd, 15:00

Inverness CT v Aberdeen, 15:00

Kilmarnock v St Mirren, 15:00

Rangers v Hibernian, 15:00

I've said that before too.

 

Monday night it is then.

Seems like they've mixed up the schedule too as opposed to playing 3 blocks of the same fixtures.

 

They used a Canadian-based company called Optimal Planning Solutions to draw up the fixtures.  Apparently they specialise in sports fixture scheduling and are responsible for the NFL and the American baseball leagues.

 

Some of the factors they were told to take into account by the SPL were:-

 

Not having Celtic and Hamilton playing away from home on the opening day.

Not having any club playing 4 out of 5 games either home or away

No long-haul journeys over the festive period, or midweek

A fair balance of home and away midweek games

No clubs playing successive home or away matches several times

No club to play 3 home or 3 away matches against another team

Santa at Inverness, that could be carnage.

No long-haul journeys over the festive period, or midweek

 

They did well then.

At least it's not in the middle of December or January though.

OF back to back at Pittodrie in mid January looks tasty

Cos more buses and trains run in March.

First game at home to Inverness? I don't think there could be a more boring game to start the season off.

Fans travelling in shite weather on the road?

Pah, fuck excitement!

 

I'd rather ICT at home and 3 points banked straight off than a trip down to Tannadice for a humping.

I'd rather a trip down to Tannadice for a win.

 

Anyway, I'm glad the two first Wednesday evening games are against St Mirren.

With the last game before the split being what it is, I hope we've got the title/top 6/safety from relegation sewn up before then. I'd hate for that to be a top 6 decider. Still, it's nearly 10 months in the future, we might be amazing by then and be able to win it.

we're certainly the best Top 6 decider team based on the last few seasons, mugging both Inverness and Falkirk, god that sounds really pathetic doesn't it!!!

Didn't they say just the other week that there was no way they could arrange the fixtures to suit, and that it was just what the SPL computer spat out?
