It can't; the only thing that can happen now is that St Gallen change their mind and refuse the use of their ground; if that happens, UEFA would step in and change to another Swiss venue, or award us a 3-0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waterboy Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 I don't think anyone is 'pant wetting'. Merely stating that the fixture hasn't been confirmed, which is factual. Everyone on this thread is well aware the fixtures are pretty much 100% going to take place at the locations, dates and times we expect, all they're saying is it isn't official. No one can provide any confirmation on this thread from either UEFA or Hearts of when the games will take place. The below is what's on the UEFA website.

Aye, because the previous legs aren't complete yet. That's a pretty big thing to have completed before announcing the next fixtures for various reasons, but none will effect us.

UEFA don't need to confirm it because there's nothing to confirm barring the opposition we're playing against which we'll find out next Thursday. It's the order the teams were drawn, it's the order the ties will be played & it is literally against UEFA's own guidelines to change it now. This has been explained numerous times, all that could change now is Linfield pulling off a stunning comeback away from home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given up now though 😂 I watched the draw live. The MC specifically said that any changes would be notified by 6pm the following night. Given that there has been no such notification it is surely safe to assume there will be no change. So now we have several camps. 1. Those who are as certain as they can possibly be that we will be playing Zurich away on the 18th and have booked. 2. Those with a niggling doubt about who we are playing, where we are playing and when we are playing so won’t commit to travel plans and will probably be too late once it’s 100% crystal clear to THEM 3. Those who think there are dark forces put in place by god knows who, solely to feck up Hearts or their fans and they’ll change the game just for the sake of it 4. Those who don’t want to go, can’t afford to go, not going because of holding off in fear of the day that will never come and who would actually take some joy and have a good old laugh if the plans of those in Group 1 collapsed about their heads. 5. Those who don’t want to go who don’t give an actual toss or have any vested interest in who we play, where we play and when we play as long as they get to see it and Hearts do well and the lads attending have a trouble free and enjoyable journey with no hitches, either before or during Edited August 5, 2022 by JimmyCant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't booked flights yet though in case there's any type of old pals act between UEFA and Zurich and the ties get switched. Not likely to happen mind you as UEFA have such a sterling reputation for honesty and transparency.
