The Real Saints Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Kick them out. Also, f**k the winter break. Now we have to play on the 29th, two days before an important league match on the 31st. And tomorrow's Meh Derby has needlessly been postponed.

Widge Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 So I’m assuming that means our game against Hamilton on the Wednesday is now off? Why are we playing it the Monday and not then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could have played the Cup game on Tuesday 30th, but any replay would still be Wednesday 31st. I don't know if there's been a recent precedent for clubs risking the Tuesday with the prospect of a replay being the following day. Paging @HibeeJibee...!

HibeeJibee Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 There have been on paper but it hasn't actually happened, i.e. didn't go to replay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widge Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Ahh I see, never even thought about a replay. No disrespect to Albion meant, things like that always slip my mind when it comes to it. I still think there must have been a better way to go about this though. What’s the rules if it’s postponed for a third time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tree house tam Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Do Rovers have 2 games before next Monday? Are they stalling to have their players back? IT'S A CONSPIRACY . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then, I think, back to Monday-Wednesday. That's correct... although if it ended-up a replay, most probably the clubs would agree Tuesday-Wednesdays attempts IMO (not Mondays), to leave 2 clear days after Saturday league games. There was a tie a few years ago that went right into Christmas & New Year, out the other side, and was either played on the next round date or even slightly after... Threave-someone, IIRC.

We'd rather have them for league games; we'll lose to St Johnstone, regardless of whether we have a full squad or not You never know what could happen in the cup game, if it ever gets played. I'm fairly confident that saints will win, but then again I'm fairly confident against whoever we play. The pitch being like a ploughed field will suit us as our players often like to play knee height hard passes to each other. Usually confuses the f**k out of the opposition when we somehow manage to bounce the ball off bodies then into the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not very recent, but we had a cup game in 1996 against Montrose which was finally played on Tuesday 13th February. It ended 1-1 and the replay at Links Park was the following day. Montrose won 3-2 and our keeper was sent off. Had we won we wouldn't have been able to sign a replacement keeper for the following round on Saturday 17th February (which was away to St. Johnstone).
