Hopefully this Tranent v Inverness CT tie will eventually be
played. Apparently the next date is Wednesday 10th, with rumours
of a switch of venue now due to the pitch issues Tranent are
having.

Where’s the nearest ground that will have a pitch that’s
suitable for football, an SFL club perhaps?
Edit… just had a look… surely Hibs or Hearts could host the tie
if the surface is still flooded.

Meadowbank would be my guess if it was to be switched (Edinburgh
City). It’s not really suitable for hosting SPFL football but
that’s a separate issue. It would be fine for this now that it
will be played midweek with a smaller crowd. It’s also an
artificial surface to so no concerns about it being waterlogged.

Auchinleck Talbot v Celtic being moved to Rugby Park for
security/police reasons means there is the unusual situation of
a non-league team having VAR for a “home” tie

Seems strange that some ties don't even have a 4th official,
where as others have the full VAR compliment
