Well it is a bit like a Beyonce/Jay-Z gig up against a Bob Dylan/Eagles gig, we were big in our day but we've been overtaken by less talented but gifted self promoters backed by their PR teams.......and loads of money of course!

Bully Wee Villa Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Finish about 2pm... fans go straight to the pub and drink until about 3am to see in the New Year.What could go wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H Wragg Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 That's a crazy decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dons_1988 Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Very poor decision. That is classic police looking after 90 minutes as opposed to the day as a whole.It encourages drinking about 9am and as people have said given its Hogmanay will just result in people drinking right through.What could possibly go wrong.

kingjoey Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 You can see what is going to happen now. After it's all over and the mayhem is being picked over, the talk will be over "why was this game being played on Hogmanay" and "did no one see what might happen". Well here we are in September telling everyone involved, you're not really thinking this through, don't do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Master Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Perhaps I'm missing something, but is Hogmanay really that much different to a normal Saturday when it comes to the potential for drink-related trouble surrounding this fixture? Edit: indeed, perhaps Hogmanay is preferable because lunchtime NYD would raise the possibility of people still being drunk from the night before.

Ross. Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 I might try and come home, just for the shits and giggles. Absolute fucking lunacy to consider that game at 12:15 on Hogmanay. If I was still working in a pub in Glasgow I would probably refuse that shift, it will be absolutely wild later on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll wager there'll be more people pished on Hogmanay than a standard saturday in Glasgow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williemillersmoustache Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Wouldn't worry, I have full confidence that once the match officials report is filed and examined, the next potential disgrace will be behind closed doors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Accident & Emergency wards and the police are more than busy enough on Hogmanay already. Add some Ice on the pavements and a few red cards and this would be a perfect storm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
