There are still some youth games being played behind closed doors. I was out for a walk around Riccarton on Sunday morning and Hearts U14s (2007s) were playing a match on the outdoor astro.

Rods Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 So since the SFA decided to focus on the lower league( ie Punish Hearts) Hibs, Killie and St Mirren have had covid related issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In today's daily Covid briefing, when questioned about specific funding for football, NS made it clear that the Scottish Government's resources are finite, so any additional funding will have to come from Westminster and the consequential share of the distribution to Scotland.

Its the morals of asking when money actualy gets pumped into it, and Celtic, Dundee, and Hibs will have stretch marks on their grubby hands asking for a handout while still trying to spend money, and in Hibs case getting rid of support staff and the future of football. St Mirren must have £££ as they can turn down, so why would they need a hand out? The deal for Sponsorship our £400k per year CEO can cover all costs? oh wait!!!!! Westminster gave grants to the non-league, but that is A) a grant and b.is not part of the £5.1 funding football already gets I suspect Wee Nicola can pass the buck and blame it all on the big bad tories, Just as Doncaster and maxwell wont look internally at the fault when there is an excrement and cooling system collision Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SectionDJambo Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 They can’t afford to mess up the BBC broadcasting contract, which covers the Championship. They’ve already refunded goodness knows how much in their haste to give Celtic their asterisk title. As we know, the BBC have already planned to show the first two Hearts games. Maybe, if the SPFL are looking to help clubs through this, they could ask Capable Neil to take a pay cut for a while. After all, he seems to be the only entity within the SPFL that hasn’t taken a financial hit, and he must be due to pay back most of those past bonuses he got for broadcasting income that his stewardship caused to be refunded. Problems are coming home to roost for the short sighted, selfish clubs who thought they were voting a cash cow into the Championship.
