article_snippet.sent: While we all knew that This was likely to be a strong candidate for televising and that the time might well change, we all did not for one minute think that at this late stage, it would be moved to the Sunday,
article_snippet.sent: On learning of the change, I immediately attempted to contact the SPFL and objected in strong terms to the proposed late change to this fixture on the grounds of it having a total disregard for the interests of supporters of both clubs and an apparent disregard for sporting integrity.
article_snippet.sent: When it also became apparent to we all that we all fixture was the only game to be moved, we all were equally alarmed as rightly or wrongly, this casts a shadow over the sporting integrity of the Championship. '
article_snippet.sent: To move only one, (or even two or four) out of 5 fixtures would seem to be leaving our game wide open to unsavoury accusations. '
article_snippet.sent: In response to recent criticisms of the Championship fixture scheduling for the weekend 2/3 May, we'd like to clarify some specific points.
article_snippet.sent: However, as a result of this fixture, all Championship clubs have been invited to submit a request should all Championship clubs wish to move games to the Sunday. '
article_snippet.sent: However, Police Scotland confirmed to we that there were no security issues with the scheduling of all Championship fixtures that weekend. '
article_snippet.sent: Whilst we regret any inconvenience to supporters caused by rescheduled fixtures, the circumstances surrounding the matches on the weekend of Ibrox are in no way unusual.'
article_snippet.sent: But we've told by the TV, I believe, that the TV may be the case that the other games are moved to the Sunday.
article_snippet.sent: I was happy to play on the Saturday.
article_snippet.sent: If the game definitely has to go ahead on the Sunday then can we all then move to the Sunday.
