The generic Hearts thread

[Del Boy]

Championship chairmen already thinking season could be binned, genuinely hope that’s not the case, funny as it would be to see the Jambos raging even more.

If you just assume the opposite of what FilipinoHibs says, you will typically be on the right track. His continued confidence in what he says despite his abysmal track record about Hearts benefactors is actually quite impressive.

Well Scottish Mortgage Trust down 3% on Monday. I was wrong on Benny being the benefactor but his fund is not immune to a market sell off as we saw in March and we are seeing now. And as CapitalGreen reported not only that Benny was a BG partner but he cut back on donations when the markets and his fund slumped in March. He will do so again if the same thing happens and it looks to be happening now. We will see.

I see the land of the old Tynecastle High school is up for sale. With their recent track record of construction project management it would be hilarious if they were to take this on and try and build something. The Budge family are probably round at James Anderson's the now trying to persuade him it's a good deal.

The way it's going I'd be very surprised if the lower leagues start. A lot of part time clubs so the "bubble" doesn't really work there.

Hopefully none will go to the wall, with the exception of one of course.

I'd e surprised if the Betfred games go ahead with the ammount of part time sides taking part. Could wreak havoc with the Premiership fixtures if any of them are positive. The Premiership need to stay in the bubble imo. Hearts are testing regularly so think the SC game will be fine.

For the intial games i would really be tempted to keep our first team squad in a seperate bubble and send a reserve team to play these lower league teams.If we get beat so be it but atleast we have isolated our first team squad from catching Covid from part time players.

I thought I read somewhere that they do have to test before the cup games or they forfeit the game 3 0?
I'm now thinking I must have misread the article??

I would expect us to be fulfilling our duty of care and not risk exposing any of our players if we believe these games are unsafe. I do think we'll field largely a reserve side in these games though due to fixture congestion next month.

We may have some called up for international duty.

You can’t do that! You need to have a duty of care to everyone you employ, they’re not cannon fodder!

Saw a report yesterday that Leyton Orient have recorded a lot of positive tests after Spurs funded their testing on Saturday and the game is expected to be cancelled today with Spurs given the win due to no schedule availability to reschedule.

If Spurs didn’t fund the testing for them then it could have caused major issues for them in regards to the three competitions they are currently having to play over a short period of time had their players/staff caught the virus.

EFL has told League Two clubs in England that regular testing is not necessary, and that testing before the season begins and half way through the season is the only requirement.

I feel like we are going to have a lot of issues with the lower league clubs up here.

"Hearts goalkeeper Zdenek Zlamal has expressed his gratitude to St Mirren for giving him the chance to play Scottish Premiership football again."

https://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.c...mirren-2978206

That article repeats the myth that Hearts were voted down. Not a single club voted to relegate them - they voted to curtail the season, which was the only sensible decision. Hearts were relegated because they were bottom of the Premiership by four clear points and easily the worst team in the league. That's what happens every season.

I thought that lower league teams had to test when due to play Premier teams hence the reason Zlamal was one of the few keepers who could go to St Mirren given Hearts are the only or one of the few lower league teams testing.

Same thing gets trotted out with the Huns. Piss poor journalism and just helps to perpetuate the myth they were victimised and that teams voted to expel/demote etc because of who they are.

As it is starting to look a distinct possibility that the championship season could be delayed further or even mothballed...what happens to the scottish semi? On one hand its would be hilarious to watch another meltdown in gorgie if they have to spend another season down the leagues....i really want to get this semi final played.

The way things are shaping up it looks very like scottish teams out with the premiership might be forced to abandon the season before it starts.
Its a shambles but its looking like a bye into the final for Hibs ..

Don't see why the Hearts game would be stopped? Hearts would be justified in whining about no match practice but that doesn't stop the game going ahead.....
