Queen’s Park Fixture Change
We can confirm that our William Hill Championship clash with Queen’s Park, originally scheduled for Saturday 10th August, has been moved to Friday 9th August with a 7.45pm kick-off instead.
As originally planned, the game will still be played at the City Stadium (Lesser Hampden).
We’re disappointed that our own schedule has been impacted by matters entirely unrelated to our own football club. Whilst we have every sympathy that unexpected issues can occur, we don’t believe our game should be the one inconvenienced to remedy that.
We didn’t have any input into the discussions regarding this, we were only informed of the change when the final decision had already been made. Again, whilst understanding the difficulty in rescheduling due to a busier than ever fixture card this season, it’s neither the fault of ourselves nor Queen’s Park which has led to the requirement for change, so we don’t believe, as a club, that it should have had an impact on our fixture list.
With that said, it’s now done and we’ll plan for the game on the new date as required, amending our own training schedule to suit, and look forward to visiting the City Stadium next month.
