    Feels like we haven't had enough midweek fixtures so far this season. No doubt later on we'll have fixture pileups and games called off because of the weather, and end up with chaos.

    It's only because we haven't had to qualify for Europe and we weren't in the early rounds of the league cup. We've played fewer games than anyone else in the league so far.

    Yeah, but it would be good if we could/were allowed to make a deal with another club to bring a league fixture forward or something.

    This.

    Next year we will have to go through at least some qualifying though, as there is no auto spot for Scotland's co-efficient after this season.

    Makes for a pleasant change IMHO. Puts less pressure on the players physically and I think has helped us build up our form as well in this early portion of the season.
