Jesus Christ..... Use a spoiler to cover up his ugly mug Baw Watching. Clicking on the last post and having that fill the screen isn't on.

Why is there a forum website online where you post as everyone?

Hearts currently occupies 6th place in the Ladbrokes Premiership, behind Kilmarnock in 5th. It is the club’s understanding that Kilmarnock was disadvantaged in the post-split fixtures during the 2014/15 season. Again, in an effort to be as fair as possible to all clubs, previous imbalances are taken into account when determining the fixtures. Hearts are, therefore, unfortunately in the position of having to play three of the remaining five matches away from home.

 

Yes, Killie were shafted in 2014/15, and yet they are the most shafted yet again, just to clarify, Killie are also going to Ibrox for a third visit, they are also going to Celtic Park, this means we will lose approx £126,000 in gate receipts from getting one home game v either of the Glasgow big teams(lol).

Add to this a visit to Easter Road and it looks like Doncaster and co have stitched us up fine and proper, oh, we are also the only top 6 team not to get a TV game.

Hearts situation beginning to seem just a little bit better?

This is all set up for Hibs to get some kind of result against Celtic and then Craig Levein to park the bus in our opening two road games meaning that the “title decider” will actually be Aberdeen 0-0 Hearts on a Friday night with most Celtic fans struggling to stay awake

You could be right, and in all likelihood all other protagonists will help make this happen........ except us (a'la last week's nailed on 3 points away to Ross County) :lol:

All pretty amazing that such time, hassle and effort went into framing the fixtures in such a way as to ensure that the title wouldn't be secured in an OF clash; yet they've come up with something whereby it's perfectly conceivable that precisely that will happen.

Why wouldn't we have a trip to Easter Road?  We've only been there once this season.  And not having a TV game is a good thing, if anything, since TV games tend to have lower attendances.

Unfortunately for Hearts, the big clubs tend to get the preferential treatment in these cases.

That's a virtually impossible scenario. Rangers goal difference is something like 15 points above ours already, so knocking that down to 1 goal in the space of 5 games would take some doing.

I mean, you could ensure it happens by losing to us by at least 14 goals in the next derby, but I don't think that it's helpful to your goal of scuppering our bragging rights...

What is the relevance of the TV comment, surely that is an advantage?

I assume he (wrongly) thinks you get paid extra if your games are televised.

As for this nonsense about teams placed 4 5 6 & 7 take the hit as per Hearts statement is bunkum. Rangers came to Easter Road three times one year when going for the title

Of course it is. The criteria for the post-split fixtures have never been published nor, as far as I am aware, publicly stated. They don't exist. They make it up every year to suit each season's agenda. It's just bo11ocks.
