Hide AdAnd with every other Super League side either already with league games arranged or involved in cup ties or replays, that leaves no-one for Stewart Maxwell’s side to play.
It’s the third blank Saturday out of four for the Kirkintilloch side - three weeks ago all fixtures were cancelled because of Scotland’s involvement in a junior international tournament and the following week Rabs’ clash with Glenafton fell victim to the weather.
They returned to action with an impressive 6-0 demolition of Carluke Rovers in the Scottish Junior Cup on Saturday.

Hide AdAnd Maxwell admitted: “The fixtures have conspired against us which is frustrating because we can’t get a run of momentum, especially on the back of a good result.
“It’s frustrating for the players, especially for Danny Boyle who has only now served the second of a three-match ban which means he’ll have been out for five weeks now. It’s important we maybe try and get a friendly arranged for him.”
Rob Roy’s next scheduled clash is at home to Irvine Vics in the first round of the West of Scotland Cup on Saturday, November 11.
