To give a basic answer Braehead Arena owner UNTU had financial problems & arena ‘closed’
Clan have supposedly reached an agreement to run the facility but paperwork needed sorting at time fixtures released.
To give them space to get organised they excluded themselves from the Challenge Cup & are looking to start their season in November 2021.

I’m sure other have more info.

That's the last word we've had from the club on the subject. Our first home game is on the 3rd of November, a friendly with Dundee, yet match tickets still haven't been put on sale, same for the Fife game on the 6th which is our first league game back. Club are deleting facebook posts from anyone asking questions on the subject, worry and speculation from fans is increasing rapidly.

Their first game is on Sunday 7th November, an away trip to Belfast.

It'll be interesting to see how that unfolds considering they have had no competitive games (you can't really class a game against Solway as one) and most of the roster plus Head Coach have only just flown in over the last few days or so.
