How do you know? I always guessed Del would be coy with the Shankland one. Kind of got vaguely pushed back to April but without any conviction in the telling of the story.

This is actually quite interesting when you think of all the permutations they'd want to avoid. Assuming it goes to the wire they don't want an Old Firm title decider, or really any other title decider involving us, on the last day. They'd probably rather avoid us playing Hibs in a title decider if possible too. Suggests all those games will be done and dusted early and the last two weeks they try to get as many as possible of us/Rangers/Celtic playing Falkirk/Motherwell (unlikely to be a title decider and less needle anyway)/Hibs (for the OF) as possible. They can't avoid one of the earlier games being a title decider if results go that way, but interesting to think about how they try to minimise risk of trouble when it's a three-way race.

Instead of trying to jump through hoops they should just concentrate on getting the fixtures out there and let what will be, be.

Ok. I don't think they will though which is why I said that.

I know but I'm saying it's pointless them tying themselves in knots about it when they could end up inadvertently causing what they're trying to avoid, it's not like usual when they can orchestrate it the way they want it to play out.
Personally I think they should have the old firm first and have us at home to Falkirk
It's mad how we were all going on about how bloated the squad was, yet we're desperate on players coming back, without having cups or Europe.
We're quality though, prime barca.
I loved the last 2 games where we were desperate for the final whistle.
The loss to Rangers before that.
We're not a bit pish though, not at all, the league is ours. easy oasy
