Why does anything have to change? Surely to God the only common sense way is that, at the end of the season, the top 6 will have played each other twice at home and twice away. If one team has already had the advantage of having played the bottom 6 twice at home and once away, thus making qualification for the top 6 much easier, then hell mend them if they have to play all their remaining fixtures away.

Because I’ll be annoyed

Celtic have charged an extra £30 per OF game on kids season books. Adult season books take into account ridiculous price increase for OF games

Nobody else does that

All fixtures should be treated equally otherwise the integrity of the league is called into question. Which means every fixture can potentially be reversed to suit the league. That includes any derbies.

What about the integrity when one team plays more home games than another team over the season?

Because you also have to factor in that all teams should play 19 home ad 19 away over the season

On 7 occasions Rangers have had a third away fixture against someone

Pretty sure it’s happened to most clubs

Ultimately you can’t deviate from the 19 home 19 away standard

That doesn’t happen though

And just for clarity the fixtures are based on the previous years placing
Meaning if the top six was unchanged the home and away issue wouldn’t arise

Coming from a club that charged opposittion fans for admission to the replay of an abandoned match ..

...And this after supporters were told their ticket stubs would be valid for the rearranged game after the abandoned game

and in equal measures

When were they told they were valid? That is, as they say, fake news.

And we also charged our own fans for the rearranged fixture. Although it was half price for both. Again fake news.

"Their terms and conditions clearly state the original ticket can be kept as a voucher, but the United board have since deemed it to be worth nothing.

Esc, remind me how successful that argument was in court?

Because the group you've quoted took that argument to court.

Did they win?

A moral victory yes

The sheriff accepted that Dundee United FC had acted reasonably by giving a value of zero to the ticket stub for a game that did not complete, did not count for the league table, and that had to be replayed in full with another ticket purchased.

the court has also found that the club had taken all factors into account and acted reasonably in dealing with the ticket arrangements for the rearranged game
