what a crock of shite the end of season fixtures are

aberdeen have one saturday fixture

play hearts on the sunday (not on tv so why the sunday)
then play celtic on tv on the friday night to give celtic an extra rest day
we then travel to ibrox for a midweek game (why no tv coverage? instead they show partick celtic 2 teams with nothing to play for and are neighbours)

Extra rest day?

Maybe it's to try and encourage Aberdeen fans to go to games?

then why have us travel to glasgow midweek when most fans wont get home till the early hours of the morning

Aye but that's against Celtic and always sells out. It's the other games that are a problem.

problem is even outside glasgow the majority of towns and villages and even cities the punters support one of the old firm
people dont want to see aberdeen play hamilton or motherwell so only the hard corp go week in week out

whereas every game for celtic or rangers could sell out

apart from rangers and celtic no team in scotland can fill there stadium
a midweek game between 2nd and 3rd where the away team need to travel atleast 2.5 hours each way would get tv coverage in any other country
rather than 1st and 6th where the teams are in the same city

some of us cant get tickets to any game because they are all taken up by season ticket holders who fail to turn up week in week out untill a big game comes around.
does my nut in, i used to get tickets for the away wheelchair section years ago apart from when there fans turned up (rangers celtic and sometimes hearts) but thats stopped now

Try being a Celtic fan when most ofyour trips north are mostly for early kick offs. 

The TV deal means that fixtures involving Celtic and Rangers away from home are far more likely to be on TV as the contract stipulates a maximum of any games shown from one stadium.

I have always had a soft spot for Dundee since 1986. 

But I hate this cretin more than most h*ns in the media and now hope Dundee get relegated.

Are Scottish juries normally 15? I thought everywhere was 12, or have they added a few extra expecting dropouts?

Yes, 15 in case of dropouts, 12 minimum needed to start case. Need at least 8  to vote guilty for a guilty verdict even if jury size is less than 15.
