We'll have to win the group because 9 points in second place is probably not enough At this stage ICT have a goal difference of plus 5. We'd be minus 3 with a 3-0 punishment, so we'll need to turn quite a big GD around as well as winning all 3 remaining games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Statto Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 Going by the statement, it looks like we missed the deadline in January to register the contract extension and when the Summer window opened, forgot that it was still needing to be done. The club should have a system in place to ensure this will never happen again. As for our punishment, I wouldn't be too upset if they award the match to Cove Rangers. We deserve to be punished, Cove Rangers will probably be heading out anyway but you have to be fair to the other teams in our group. A fine and making us replay the match could be another route they go down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROCK LOBSTER Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 20 minutes ago, Deviskan said: Like I said in the post you quoted...I’ll be amazed if this is down to one person. You would hope Hearts have a process in place for a procedure of such importance, where due diligence is conducted to ensure compliance. Normally the registration of players is the responsibility of the club secretary. This is a massive mistake that wouldn't be done at boys club level. It's a total shambles, but it's not the first remember last season's league cup tie when a mix up with the squad numbers meant we couldn't make a sub and of course the seats for the new stand. Let's be honest if it was anyone else we would want them kicked out and I think this could happen, too many mistakes are being made too often, the club are trying to do too much at once and forgetting the basics but the manager is definitely not to blame for this one.

Hungry hippo Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 9 points has a very good chance of qualifying if we can manage it. In 2016 all three second placed teams that finished on 9 points progressed and last year two finished on 9 with Peterhead being the only unlucky ones out of all 5 teams. A minus 3 goal difference isn't an ideal start but it would still be very doable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diego10 Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 There's various punishments been applied for fielding ineligible players so it's not a foregone conclusion Cove would be awarded a 3-0 win. We'll find out on Monday but it is obviously a potentially very costly error. With a bit of luck it'll be a fine and a slap on the wrist given he wasn't suspended and it is a purely administrative error. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paolo Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 (edited) Spartans were once kicked out the Scottish Cup, because they simply forgot to sign one part of a lengthy form. Yes, it was a knock out competition, but their punishment was not a 3-0 defeat, it was expulsion. I am not saying this will happen to us, but it shows if the beaks want to dish out a serve punishment, they will.
