    It's yet another example of the fans in this country being treated as a complete afterthought.  The noon kick off on Sunday is a bloody joke for Raith fans too. Outwith the OF we all have to put up with this nonsense and it wouldn't be tolerated in the likes of Germany. It will remain the status quo though as we are far too compliant and the clubs are wary of rocking the boat.

    Not sure Germany any better. They're also playing their playoffs this weekend, first leg Thursday night and second leg is Monday night.

    Division B, Round 18

    N5 Spur defeats markf268 / @true_rover on time.

    More than happy to replay if @true_rover is in a position to do so, and admin is happy with that.  Selfless, I know.

    Sorry was travelling, and thought I'd played a move but obviously wasn't connected to the internet at the time!

    Don't mind which option we go with - it was my fault!

    Potentially a couple of games behind at the moment (either taken place or reported!) - I'll check the fixtures and get caught up!

    So... why does the SFA have 4th officials at Championship games on the telly, but doesn't on Saturdays? I mean, a 4th official makes much more sense at RRFC v DAFC than it does tonight.

    For a TV game, it won't get massively delayed (or even stopped) if an official gets injured and gives someone to put the stoppage time up. Suspect the League 1 games live on Alba will also have one.

    P&B CUP - Winter 23/24

    Ok people. You can tell the BBC and ITV to ram their wall-to-wall FA Cup coverage. Here's the draw for the *real* cup.

    chess_last16_winter2324.thumb.jpg.97849c0542f7e1c53d4caa44f9dfd919.jpg

    The bairn is now asking for £2 to do these draws going forward! Clearly the prestige of the job isn't enough in itself any more.

    Same setup as before:

    Standard Rules
    1 Day Per Move
    Blitz Replays

    Best of luck to everyone, and a belated Happy New Year to you all.

    Spreadsheet updated here:

    8 and 17 have both been played as far as I can check from my archive with wins for me (markf268) (please someone correct me if I'm wrong!!)

    16 now reported as defeat for me, 22 still ongoing and I think we haven't played 19 so sent an invite (again correct me if I'm wrong 😂)

    In game 22, win for me over DieHardDoonhamer

    Not so much petty, but something that gets right on my tits in a McGlashan fashion:

    How when somewhere like Brechin appears on the news, it's always shown as "Brechin, Scotland", but when it's somewhere of comparable size Down South that's shown, it'll be "Somewhere-upon-Something, Derbyshire".   Scotland's just lumped together as one entity, pandering to the geographical ignorance of those elsewhere in the UK.

    Similarly, Fife is almost always referred to like it's a town rather than naming where the event actually happened.

    Doncaster has throughout his tender made shit decisions that are of no benefit to the Scottish game or supporters. This Saturday blackout is archaic.

    One problem with removing the blackout is attendances aren't just going against streaming the game, it's people having simple, legitimate access at home or the pub to Man City/Liverpool/Man Utd games at the same time.
