bigy 0 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Good to see we've still got a couple of derby games at christmas time!! RANGERS are still awaiting a licence from the SFA before they can play football in Scotland. Chief Executive Charles Green has indicated that discussions will continue with the SFA to resolve this issue. If this is granted, Rangers' first match of the season will be in the Ramsden's Cup away to Brechin City on July 28. The first round of the League Cup - which has still to be drawn - takes place on August 4 with the league programme beginning the following weekend. Rangers would assume the fixtures of Stranraer who will be promoted to Division 2. They look like this: Sat Aug 11 A Peterhead Sat Aug 18 H East Stirlingshire Sat Aug 25 A Berwick Rangers Sat Sep 01 H Elgin City Sat Sep 15 A Annan Athletic Sat Sep 22 H Montrose Sat Oct 06 A Stirling Albion Sat Oct 20 H Queen's Park Sat Oct 27 A Clyde Sat Nov 10 H Peterhead Sat Nov 17 A East Stirlingshire Sat Nov 24 A Elgin City Sat Dec 01 H Annan Athletic Sat Dec 08 H Stirling Albion Sat Dec 15 A Montrose Wed Dec 26 H Clyde Sat Dec 29 A Queen's Park Wed Jan 02 A Annan Athletic Sat Jan 05 H Elgin City Sat Jan 12 H Berwick Rangers Sat Jan 19 A Peterhead Sat Jan 26 H Montrose Sat Feb 02 A Stirling Albion Sat Feb 09 H Queen's Park Sat Feb 16 A Clyde Sat Feb 23 A Berwick Rangers Sat Mar 02 H East Stirlingshire Sat Mar 09 H Annan Athletic Sat Mar 16 A Elgin City Sat Mar 23 H Stirling Albion Sat Mar 30 A Montrose Sat Apr 06 A Queen's Park Sat Apr 13 H Clyde Sat Apr 20 H Peterhead Sat Apr 27 A East Stirlingshire Sat May 04 H Berwick Rangers http://www.rangers.co.uk/news/football-news/article/2851343 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa 0 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 On one hand I'm seriously annoyed to be looking at the prospect of that fixture list, but on the other hand I'm pleased for these wee clubs because some of them were there or thereabouts at the birth of Scottish football and have great histories. I just hope they're all prudent with the extra cash and spend it on upgrading the facilities for their fans and visiting fans. The SFL clubs now have a golden opportunity to improve their clubs. They better not waste it! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dutchy Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I veery much doubt I'd go to any game against Peterhead. If that part of the country is anything like the welcome we get from Aberdeen, it's a no, no right away. Plus, I had Peterhead to win the title last year and they were crap. lol 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 743 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 (edited) For fans in the north east (me previously) its 3 games nearby - Peterhead, Elgin and Montrose....although Peterhead is pretty rough and Id avoid that one. Those grounds will be filled as despite the hatred up their there still is a decent fan base. Edited July 18, 2012 by Gribz 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
