Tumshie RFC 0 Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 I think it's the best we could have hoped for. Three home games against arguably the three toughest teams. Celtic have to go to Ibrox and Tynecastle. If someone had offered that to me this morning I would have taken it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super_Ally 0 Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Celtic are the only team to never have been stiffed by the split. Is that still the case? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
metlika 0 Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Celtic are the only team to never have been stiffed by the split. Is that still the case? They have 3 away games, is that the first time ever they have had 3 away games for the split? I can feel a certain QC being on the case.... They still haven't been given 3 away matches in one season I believe. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tannochsidebear 2,321 Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 The split works in rotation. Last season we had 3 away games post split and Timmy had 2. The season before it was reversed. Next season we will have 3 away games post split. The only unfair thing about the split is that sometimes, a side is asked to go to the same venue 3 times in a season, instead of playing that opponent twice at home and twice away. That has happened to us on 3 occassions I believe, and has happened to most SPL clubs at some stage or other, apart from 1 club who has never had this inconvenience. And no prizes for guessing who. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, that's what I was getting at. They have 3 away as that is what they need to make up there full compliment of 19 home and away fixtures metlika. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
