Hearts game in October
This falls on same weekend as the Premier Sports Cup semi-finals so this will be re-scheduled. Due to Hearts being in Europe the next available midweek for this game to be played isn't until the 23rd of December. Suspect it will be played then or the midweek after the New Year Derby as the SPFL prefer these games to be played asap.

Am I missing something?
We don't play Hearts in October 🤔
Edit - United have already removed it from their site. I see now it was to be played on Halloween.
As Celtic are also out of the tournament perhaps the clubs could get together and sensibly move the midweek fixture of the 28th to Saturday 31st. Give their players more recovery time and makes it easier for fans to attend.

Re: Hearts game in October
Let's say they do move the midweek game, United's support won't change by much, but midweek games massively hinder/cost those coming from other shores to watch much more, due to having to stay over, transport issues, it's a real pain for them.
So yes, move it, but to a 9pm kick off on the original date 😉

Oh well.
Yet another free weekend for us it is then.
Pig sick of the stop-start nature of the league season these days. Between international football and the league cup getting played at weekends these days it feels a very intermittent campaign indeed.

It's garbage, complete garbage and I can only imagine the foreign players will be looking at these "League Cup" only weekend breaks and saying WTAF

Re: Hearts game in October
A nice wee 3 week break between games so Scotland can try to qualify, to then find a new way to embarrass the nation and the fans can win the Aren't We Cute, Wha's Like Us Eh? trophy.
