Fixture list for the new season will be released on Wednesday (19th June) at 9am.
First league game will be on Saturday 10th August.
Challenge Cup 1st Round will be played on Saturday 27th July and League Cup 1st round will be played on Saturday 3rd August.
Apparently there will be no fixtures scheduled for Saturday 21st December or Saturday 4th January, but clubs may move games from Thursday 26th December and Thursday 2nd January to those free dates if they wish.
League Cup Dates
1st Round - Saturday 3rd August 2013 2nd Round - Tue/Wed 27th/28th August 2013 3rd Round - Tue/Wed 24th/25th September 2013 4th Round - Tue/Wed 29th/30th October 2013 Semi Finals - Sat/Sun 1st/2nd February 2014 Final - Sunday 16th March 2014 Challenge Cup Dates

If it's the same as last year, I don't think we enter the Scottish Cup until the 4th Round (because we finished 4th in the first division) but don't know if this will change given the new SPFL thingy-majig.

Half of me really hopes we'll see us kick off the season at home to Raith Rovers so Mensing and co can get tore in about Elliot. The other half of me knows that, given my luck, if we got Raith then it's a banker that Elliot would score the winner and get it right up us all.
Anyway, really no bothered who we get, just looking forward to the new campaign kicking off and getting back into the groove of the fitbaw season!
Any idea when the 1st round draws are for the two early cups?

The two promoted teams followed by two teams that will be fancied for the title. I think therell be even less between the sides this season so every game will be a tough one. Nice to have back to back home games 2nd and 3rd games in too.

Then its Morton at home & Dumbarton away.....not an easy opening half dozen by any stretch of the imagination.

While not getting carried away, there would be something very satisfying about clinching the title (or a play-off place) against Raith Rovers on the final day.
Or better yet, winning and condemning them and Mr Elliot to relegation!

We could well be still on only 1 point after these two games & then its Cowdenbeath & we still haven't played an impressive looking Hamilton side; 1st quarter of the season is shaping up to be a disaster at the moment.
