Understood thats why its posted as a rumour.
MIGHT BE TRUE....MIGHT NOT BE TRUE

I think there could be 'questions asked in the house' after the 'leaking' of fixtures before the 6am embargo by certain individuals/sites

whatever, hopefully the lads get a title back to christie park this season!!!

We all love our Piggies
Triumphant in mid flight
Soaring right down Harlaw Way
As Black and Gold burns bright

The Piggies are now stirring
As the fixtures they await
The 9th straight victory is coming
And soon we'll have the date

info was live on front page and out on mailing list at midnight

Put the Piggy Poem back up

We all love our piggies
Triumphant in mid flight
Soaring right down Harlaw way
As Black and Gold burns bright

The excitement is now stirring
As the Piggies end their wait
The fixtures have now arrived
And now we KNOW the date

Nine straight wins down Harlaw Way
As the Piggies fly from heaven
Our date with Locos destiny
Will be March the 27th

So the Piggies get to fly in spring
With black leather and cool glasses
As the Howlin shed start to sing again
'We dumped you on your ar*es !!'

See the way the fixtures work out we play Turra two weeks running

Unless we reach the Scottish Cup round 3 ??

Yes of course - forgot about we would be in the 3rd round

Well that seems to kill the rumour about Strathspey ground sharing with Clach, unless it's only for two months!

cheers to the club for sending out fixtures. Was good to recieve an E-mail this morning with info.

interesting start to the season. Should pick up quite a few points with home games and away to one of the new boys. keith may be a sticky one though.

Can I ask - any plans to present the new boys to the league anything as a welcome, e.g. pennant? Would be a nice gesture.

We have in the past when new clubs have joined the league presented them with something, as with Morag Pirie who made her first senior refereeing appoinment at Christie Park, so I would think and hope we continue the tradition.

With the problems that fort william have, why could we not have had a set of midweek fixtures in august and or september? And why do we have turriff 2 weeks on the bounce? its just madness.

Surely its simple enough just to repeat the first half of the programme OR is that too simple.
Also read on highland league .net that it is more difficult to have alternate home and away fixtures with an 18 team league than a 16 team league.
Maybe being thick here but could somebody please clarify as this does not make any sense to me.

gutted so far i miss vale away and cove at home!!!

Good point made on hfl.net regarding the fixtures on 26 dec and 2nd jan. Will bus companys hike up the prices for these dates?. We are at home boxing day but away to nairn jan 2nd.

I would think companies will hike up prices for buses, cant see why when most folk will be off on Monday the 28th and 4th they cant play the games then, feel sorry for the players not being able to enjoy their Christmas pud and a few drinks on the 1st

See the Vale v Wick game due to be played on 26th Dec will now be played on Sunday 27th Dec - good idea
Feel sorry for players from other clubs who wont be able to enjoy Christmas with their families knowing they have to play the following day
I think Monday 28th Dec & 3 Jan are public holidays - maybe games could be rescheduled to those dates.
We are away to Nairn on the 26th Dec and home to Strathspey on the 2nd Jan

It is a public holiday but the original dates should never have been published. I take it a change of date will be down to clubs themselves?

Aye I would think so, just think that bus prices etc will be expensive for Boxing Day and the 2nd
