Fxxx the SPFL Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 We should send an Foi request asking for details of the contractual agreement might be Hampden so just play our game a week later and postpone our league game against the smellies and play it later in the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwindonJambo Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 4 minutes ago, Macros said: I'm not saying I agree with the decision and I am only speculating, though I think I might be close to the truth that if all the other parties with a say on where/when the games are played were happy to vote for this the both Hearts and Aberdeen could shout from the rooftops from now till the game is played and it won't make a jot of difference. We can't refuse to play the game, we can object and I wish we would but I still don't see that changing the decision. Hearts and Aberdeen should make a statement, forfeit the games and tell them to shove their worthless bent cup right up their arses. Might as well not bother having any knockout rounds - just a bye straight through to the final for the arse Cheeks. Wankers. Away from ranting extreme reactions, I await statements from both Hearts And Aberdeen. Aberdeen have been stiffed by lunchtime kickoffs loads of times.

Craig Herbertson Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Last night one of the commentators said something like but if Hearts got Murrayfield it would be like a home tie. They don't do irony do they. The simpler way to say it would be Celtic or Rangers would have to leave their hometown for a change. This is a badly thought out decision which benefits only Celtic and Rangers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Findlay Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 28 minutes ago, Footballfirst said: Apologies for bringing FOH and fan ownership into this. Once FOH assumes the majority shareholding, I am happy for the club to be allowed to conduct its day to day operations without interference. However this is the sort of situation where I would expect the club to reflect the interests of what will be its major shareholder, i.e. the fans. I expect that Hearts will end up putting out a statement saying they tried their best, but that it was the only practical solution. That's not good enough IMHO. The club should be coming out with a clear statement that they do not agree with the decision made and put it on record that Hearts and Aberdeen request that their supporters interests are given priority in the next scheduling conflict. Agree with you. No need for your last sentence. It's simple both us and Aberdeen quite rightly say. We are not playing on the day stated at the times stated. Therefore no games on BT Sport and Dung caster can rethink it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't want the club to be sanctioned for not playing a game, possibly to the extent of being banned from next season's competition. The failure of Aberdeen or Hearts to acknowledge the scheduling of the ties as yet is notable in itself. Perhaps both clubs have been inundated with complaints since the announcement and are considering their options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
