  1. Seven games in a month doesn't personally bother me, more games the better. I just think if the fixtures were more evenly distributed at better times it would lead to more people going.
  2. I guess not being allowed to fixture games is something the SFA need to sort out with UEFA/FIFA if they want to improve the state of our game. I know it is not as simple at that, but not being allowed to play at bog standard SPFL game on a Tuesday night because a game is taking place thousands of miles away in another country is just another example of bureaucratic madness. Maybe it is black and white, and this is a situation that can't be changed but I would make it an urgent priority if we are to improve things in this country. Would the majority of fans prefer to stay at home and watch Atlectico Madrid - Chelsea in April, rather than their own team on a nice Spring night? Maybe some would. Allowing Champions League / Europa League fixtures to dictate the fixtures when we only have one team competing regularly doesn't seem a sustainable way to continue. Why is the future sustainability of small clubs being dictated by higher powers whose actions are only furthering the gulf between the big and small clubs. The financial disparity between Celtic and the rest of us is a perfect example.
  3. I was just having a look at our fixtures in the next few months. In November and March we are only playing 2 games but in January we have 7. I know there are reasons for this (Scottish Cup ties, International games), but it seems crazy to ask fans to pay for 7 games in January. Surely there could be a way to spread them out more evenly, or even just have more games towards the end of the season when the weather is better. A lot teams are really struggling for crowds right now. Is asking fans to turn up in the freezing cold in January, when they are also skint after Christmas the way to get fans back to the games? Seems like madness to me. Is anyone in power looking at the way games are scheduled in this country? I know clubs rely heavily on TV money and are at at the mercy of their scheduling, but surely there has to be change. Asking Aberdeen fans to travel to Hamilton on Friday night, and us to Aberdeen this week is bonkers. The nutters and financially able will be there, but the fixtures dates and time are killing it for the majority. Thoughts and feelings?
  4. Dreadful keeping, why didn't he even try to stretch out an arm?!?! I know it took a deflection but he turned his body to watch it going in the net.
  5. Surely that was a foul on Hammell on the lead up to the 2nd goal, hand in his face!?
  6. I thought Celtic were a disgrace today, especially the big bald Swede. Odense were also guilty of pulling shirts on a number of occasions the other night. Maybe it's a Scandinavian thing, where they get away with it more over there.
  7. I'm on the 12.05 to Stanstead, then flying to Copehagen in the evening! See you at the airport!
  8. +1 Getting excited, see you all there!
  9. Can't find a place to stay in Odense, all the hostels seem to be full. The rest is out of my budget. Anyone have a spare bed in one of the hostels that isn't going to be used? If not, a park bench will do for the night I suppose.
  10. Does anyone know of any dodgy live feeds for the game today?
  11. Yes! First game i have managed to see since the 0-0 draw with Rangers at start of season, loving it. C'mon ye 'Well!!
  12. Up at 5.15 this morning! What an end to the game! So gutted!
  13. Holy shit, you are a legend, amazing!!!!!!!
  14. So excited! In Colorado right now, first chance I've had all summer to tune into a game live. I'm going for 1-0 to the 'Well!
