Absolutely embarrasing if that's real. Here's a few highlights/lowlights/gothic horrors:

Is it one game against each team in the league then split in January, then facing each other home and away?

As far as i know if one more game, so some teams will have a fixture imbalance . A total of 28 games and that's one of the reason summer season rush of games where this point last year most teams had played 10 games never happened this season.

If it was home and away after the split that would be 37 games and only 1 less than last years 38 which has a game in June.

Correct, when everyone played each other once, the top 10 and bottom 10 will play each other one more time.

Today's results:

 

League:

Arbroath Victoria 1-1 Blairgowrie

Brechin Victoria 0-2 Forfar United

Carnoustie Panmure 3-0 Kirriemuir Thistle

Coupar Angus 3-2 Scone Thistle

Downfield 2-1 Tayport

Dundee St James 0-4 Lochee United

East Craigie 1-0 Dundee Violet

Forfar West End 0-3 Dundee North End

Montrose Roselea 1-3 Broughty Athletic

 

Scottish Junior Cup:

Letham 2-1 Dunipace

 

Straightforward wins for Lochee United, Dundee North End and Broughty Athletic. At the bottom of the table, Forfar United got their first points by beating Brechin Victoria. That leaves FWE & Scone Thistle as the last remaining teams on 0 points.

Downfield 2-1 Tayport

Downfield started the better, but a moment of madness at the back where a horrible pass quickly led to a cheap penalty to the Fifers which gave them the edge. Downfield were easily the better team in possession, but could do nothing with it in the final third with Tayport happy to defend and went into HT behind. 

2nd half started off in similar fashion, but eventually Downfield's attempts to walk the ball into the net paid off and they equalised. Game opened up a bit after that with close calls at both ends, but Tayport were leaving too much space down the middle and the Spiders netted the winner from outside the box. Better team won, but the game was stop-start and lacking much quality.

Perfectly fair assesment of the game feel that sums it up well, Think if we (Tayport) had more players and could muster up a bench with some attackers to bring on then we could of been on for a grandstand finish

Once again I find myself in Dundee with nothing to do whilst the good lady is at work on Saturday. With Dundee Violet and both Lochee teams being away from home, Dundee North End is looking to be my likely destination. Is there a bar at the ground or anywhere in particular nearby I should head to for a pre match tipple? Or since I’ll be walking past it anyway and only having a couple, am I best off just nipping in to The Glens?

I'm sure Letham are playing East Cragie in Dundee on Saturday. Another option for you.

They are. Dundee St James are also playing Arbroath Vics, however North End is a 20 minute walk from the Mrs’ gaff, the others are closer to the hour mark and I’m not ready for that level of commitment. I usually go and watch Dundee Violet if circumstances allow for it which is a nice 5 minute walk but they’re away from home so no such luck this week.

Yes there is a bar. Reasonable prices too. Glens probably closest pub but Whiteys,Frews and Strath all in scope.
