Fan’s petition gets 11,000 signatures

A Hearts fan’s petition against the scheduling of the Betfred Cup semi-finals has attracted more than 11,000 signatures.

It comes as anger continues to mount over the decision to play both semi-finals on the same day at Hampden park in Glasgow.

The SPFL opted last week, with the advice of Police Scotland, to schedule the Aberdeen v Rangers tie for 12pm and Hearts v Celtic for 7.45pm.

The so-called “Super Sunday” decision was condemned by both Aberdeen and Hearts.
