I am travelling down for this match.
It clashes with Scotland v Cyprus.
Please, tell me that the Rovers match will go ahead as scheduled on the Saturday afternoon at 3pm?

Disappointingly it looks like it - ill be missing it as I already have Scotland tickets.
Think its missed opportunity to sell a bit important game as a Friday night under the lights type situation rather than going head to head with a home Scotland game.

I cant for the life of me think why the club haven't looked at moving this, a terrible decision all round

It would have been sensible to change this but if it hasn't happened by now it would seem unlikely to change. I see that one League 2 match has been moved to the Friday night, two League 1 matches have been changed and there are no Championship matches at all on the Saturday. Of course the Premier were never scheduled for that day.
One point to note is that both teams must agree any change so we don't know what, if anything was discussed.

Agree with above - I wonder why Sunday even not used as an option - remeber in the past some Sunday games with really good attendances

Hopefully it can be changed to Friday or the Sunday.
Daft competing with a Scotland game.

I'd be up for a few more Friday eve games when there's not too much distance/travel between the two clubs

Never mind that match. Bonnyrigg are getting closer to us. Only 3 points of a difference. Squeaky bum time. 🙄🙄
Great late equaliser tonight for Bonnyrigg v Forfar.
🙏🙏🙏

Don’t want you to miss the Bonnyrigg match Nanook but this game should not be going head to head with the Scotland game at Hampden. Our game is a vital one for both teams. However, fans in our league tend to be keen on going to Scotland games too. This game should be moved to the Friday evening or the Sunday afternoon so our fans can attend both if they wish. I’m mystified why the 2 clubs would choose to give their supporters the dilemma of choosing between club or country. Surely there’s still time for sense to prevail. Ronnie

Could not agree more Ronnie!
I too will miss this one if it's not moved - surely the clubs could come to an agreement that will mean that all their fans can attend this crucial clash.
The way the SFA now market tickets for Scotland matches means that many Rovers fans and probably many Rose fans will have tickets for the Scotland game almost by default.
As Ronnie says - don't make us choose between club or country!

I’ll miss the Bonnyrigg game too unless it’s moved. It’s probably going to be the most important game of the season so I think it’d be mad for both clubs to choose to go up against the national team.
