bruce778 Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 This does seem like a strange kick off time dictated by Sky as a result of 2 Jan not being a public holiday in England. I think it should be moved but doesn't seem likely. A few people have said it would be "preferential treatment" to move the fixture, inferring that Rangers and Celtic would somehow benefit from the game being moved 24 hours or 48 hours. This is a strange comment as it seems to me that moving the fixture provides no advantage to either team whatsoever but would be a decision made on public safety grounds. Personally, I would have no issue with the Edinburgh derby of Dundee derby being moved if requested by the police or others. I certainly wouldn't think the Edinburgh or Dundee clubs were being given preferential treatment. But I suppose people get a bit precious, incoherent and petty when it comes to Rangers and Celtic.

Barney Rubble Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 It's nothing other than common sense to move this dog of a fixture from the 31st December. Sky don't realise that 99.9% of the Scottish public have more interest in having a decent Hogmanay than being subjected to the ugly sisters and their turgid aftermath. This is one case when we would all be quite happy if they took the game to Dubai, Beijing, Outer Mongolia or Belfast to have their bigotfest. So why hasn't it happened?? Oh no, they would rather have Dundee v Celtic in Detroit or somewhere instead, yeah I forgot. What the f*** are 'Police Scotland' playing at here in signing up to this?? Are Sky contributing to the shortfall in the pension fund or something? This has got bad juju written all over it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macy37 Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 The recent one ended up a blood bath as expected/predicted did it? Let them get on with it. People love frothing at the mouth about Celtic and Sevco. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure I would have noticed however a 10000 increase in capacity. 50k watching the game on the floating pitch and another 10k in the casino Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much so I am actively looking to get away for a few days at New Year. I think that's the biggest issue. Glasgow has now become out of bounds on Hogmanay this year, which is a real shame.
