Tontospal 1,116 Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Apologies if already discussed but I'm curious as to why our weekend cup tie is being played on Tuesday? What was wrong with 12.30 on Saturday? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tontospal 1,116 Posted January 12, 2009 Author Share Posted January 12, 2009 Fair enough but surely Sky could have shown Hibs-Hearts on Saturday with us being on Sunday. Alternatively what was wrong with tonight? It just seems very strange to me that the game is being played on Tuesday night. Is this the first time, ignoring replays and postponed games, that the cup ties have been scheduled in this way with the last tie being completed 48 hours after the other ties should have been played?

Muff 245 Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 I thought the decision to play it on Tuesday was a disgrace. It's unfair on the people who matter the most, the fans. They could easily of played it on Saturday or Sunday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanna say, fuck the tv, just play the game, and if they can't fit it in then oh well but that does two things; - Fucks over the fans who can't get to the game - Ruins our tv funding, which as it is, is pretty poor Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
