I really like that one to be honest. I forget we run the SFA. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevoraith Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 Not really sure why hearts feel that they are being shafted so much more than other clubs. They presumably trained yesterday before they were told to stop. So they’re paying contracts etc between the 14th and the 24th but not being allowed to train. Most other championship clubs were due back on the 17th, so they will be incurring the same costs between the 17th and 24th but not able to train. All clubs will be missing out, Hearts will be missing out on 2/3 days more than the rest. Not really a massive injustice or conspiracy against Hearts now is it?Of course the question of whether the lower leagues should be stopped while the ‘perpetrators’ in the premier are allowed to continue is a totally different argument. But it’s not a conspiracy against Hearts. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably the clubs who haven't started training yet will be able to keep theirs on it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but it's possible a number of the new employed players the likes of Ayr, Raith and Dunfermline in particular have signed up are due to start on 17th and they can't be furloughed. It's equally possible they have been paying them since they announced their signings so it makes no odds. Only those clubs will know that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure that was mentioned. Providing there's a way for card payments at a stadium I really don't see it as being that much of an advantage, infact I don't see it as an advantage at all with regards to doing it contactless at the turnstiles... At this level anyway. It’s more of a convenience thing, for the fans who can simply appear at the turnstile. Some locations have a decent trudge from the ticket office to the appropriate gate, so simplifying things for the casual fans might help a wee bit. Plus, if you’d normally have two in the ticket office, moving one to the turnstile might smooth entry as a bonus. Not saying it’s a panacea or anything, but it would seem to be more efficient...and the teams on the edge can always use efficiency. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone who already went to the trouble of getting to the ground isn't not going to go in because they need to visit a ticket office with their card. On the other hand, having a card payment facility at the turnstile both holds any queue up significantly and opens the whole thing up to abuse from the turnstile attendant in letting people in for cheap prices. I really don't see why this is important. If you are going to do convenience entry then the Ayr way is better and standing trying to physically pay with plastic at a turnstile. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as mentioned, other clubs new signings will most likely still have to be paid. If Hearts were savvy about it I'm sure that having players in the classroom in small groups would not break any rules and would allow them to work on the theory side of the game. I'm sure there is plenty of that sort of thing done at a big club like Hearts 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
