i8hibsh Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 Hibs will be 3 months into their season and have a premier league squad. We will be rusty, unfit and have championship quality throughout. Therefore 2 nil Hearts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hibs will have been playing competitive football for 3 months prior to this semifinal. If we are in the championship, we will have had one competitive fixture. I'm with you. So can anyone clarify : Hearts will start pre season training in about 3-4 weeks , ready for an early October league start date. All this confirmed by Scottish govt & SFA : or did I miss something ?

five wan Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 The semi final and final are a big part of the reason that lawell wants fans back in, celtic can’t afford not to have the 25% ticket money from these games. If they have as reported sold 50,000 season tickets this is money already banked, they are struggling for money Quote Link to post Share on other sites

merseyjambo Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 This situation just shows what a farce Scottish football is and how blatantly obvious it is being random for the benefit of one team and one team only. League season has to be called yet we can still play the cup Semi Finals in the next season. Clearly one club are desperate and arrogant as they want to rinse their fans for quadruple treble merchandise.other countries have finished their league season but in most cases punted the cup yet in Scotland we are the opposite. What makes this a bigger farce is that players who have already been knocked out the competition are eligible to play in it because its being played in a new season. If that is not farcical, I don’t know what it. So Sheikh Mansoor comes along after deciding he loves Scottish football that much and buys Aberdeen. Gives them a 200m war chest and tells them to go And buy who they want. They buy the likes of Edouard, Morales, Hickey, Kent etc and they are allowed to compete in competition for last season in this season. Farce. I know we could benefit from it as well but players who are cup tied should not be allowed to play in competition. If they are playing it to a finish it finishes with players who were available last season or players who did not play in competition last season but have now signed for the club. Scottish football. The laughing stock of Europe Quote Link to post Share on other sites

EH11 2NL Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 The whole things an absolute farce and I've previously said I'd back the club to pull out of the competition. The likelihood is that the game will be played, the other way to look at it is that we have months to prepare for this 1 game. Hibs on the other hand have a premiership season to prepare for, and its not outwith the realms of reality that they have a poor start and face the prospect of a Semi final against Hearts that have had nothing to do for 3 months other than mainly focus on this game.

Not to mention a potential 2nd covid spike. What happens if one team has to call off the Semi or the Final at the last minute due to players testing positive... If it's Celtic that have players testing positive then the game will be awarded to Celtic, if it's any of the other 3 teams then the game will be awarded to Celtic. The bonus here for the GFA, if this occurs in our semi final there is a possibility we can then look forward to a final of Celtic V Celtic, finally a game that the GFA can look forward to and one with more sporting integrity than anyone could have hoped to achieve. Finally a game the officials would be able to referee without bias. To summarise, if it wasn't for Hearts I would be done with Scottish football, they don't even hide the corruption anymore, the whole thing is run by one club* for the benefit of one club* *used to be two but one died in 2012 #CorruptToTheCore Edited July 22, 2020 by Slim1874 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

willie wallace Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 Robbie looking forward to the semi final. Only 2 weeks after season starts but will play a lot of friendlies before then. Will be interesting to see who the opposition is.😀 It's a long way off but with the possibility of fans being able to attend surely Murrayfield would be the place to play for health and safety reasons alone never mind the common sense factor.
