Vanderbilt Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 Was looking through the supposed West fixture list only to find that Beith have 9! yes 9 games with no date against them. That’s not a fixture list 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 Don't know where you are looking, but nobody has a game scheduled for 23rd December as that was always planned as a catch up date for postponed games, likewise for any date after 16th March. Their fixture list is the same as everyone elses. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you look through all premier league matches they have 9 missing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have played 9 and have 16 scheduled, that leaves them 5, which are all games that were on the fixture list but were postponed because of cup ties. They have games right up until 16th March, plenty of time to set dates for those 5. Edited November 12, 2023 by peasy23 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn’t the point of a fixture list supposed to be so everyone knows when the games are ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All 30 league games were on the fixture list issued at the start of the season, 5 were postponed due to cup ties as Beith have won quite a few. It's not really that difficult. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ekok Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 Honestly just haud yer wheest. Had exactly the same discussion recently about the Lowland League. It is so simplistic to view from one teams perspective. The match secretaries from either League would lose you after 10 seconds explaining the complexity of what they deal with. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure will be more fixtures up soon but we have fixtures until March and not just 2/3 weeks notice if that as we did before Kennie done the fixtures.

beith19 Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 No paranoia at Beith on this for the record, Kennie can only do what he can with all clubs in mind and when you factor in ground sharing issues then he's really got a thankless task. The improvement from say 10 years ago is immeasurable and us not yet having floodlights only makes it harder. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On that subject, do you know if there's been any progress on the land ownership issues preventing you from applying for planning permission? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s not a fixture list My first thought here was to leave it alone. It's not worth the effort. But no, my curiosity got the better of me. So, please help me out, because I'm now worried that I've lost 4 fixtures somewhere and I just can't find them anywhere. Beith have played 9 games in the League, they have a further 16 listed with dates, that leaves me with 5 still to go back on the list. Home against Arthurlie, Gartcairn & Troon. Away to Glenafton & Hurlford. Where's the other 4? It can't be the Scottish Cup, they're no longer in it. The same goes for the Scottish Junior Cup. It can't be in the South Challenge Cup, they're playing in it on Saturday. It can't be the West of Scotland Cup because they're playing in it on the 25th. Now, as far as I'm aware that's it, but if you can point out the 4 missing fixtures, I would really appreciate it. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you go through the West Premier fixtures week by week in the official website there’s 9 missing. Maybe need to get the website sorted. If Beith have an outstanding fixture away to Glenafton who have lights,why isn’t it scheduled? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do realise that what you stated is impossible, surely? 9 Played + 16 Listed + 5 Postponed = 30 15 Opponents, = 15 home games + 15 away games = 30 We don't play 34 league games. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren’t all listed in the week by week section of the fixtures! They are on the individual club ones,that’s the point. Good dodge on why Glenafton v Beith hasn’t been rescheduled btw. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
