29 Sept 2018 Jahr - Staging both League Cup semi-finals on the same day at Hampden is "almost a disaster waiting to happen", says Hearts owner Ann Budge.

Beschreibung:

Aberdeen meet Rangers at 12:00 GMT on Sunday, 28 October, before Hearts play Celtic at 19:45.

The SPFL say it is "the best solution" because both Old Firm clubs have Europa League games on 25 October.

"You could have knocked me down with a feather," said Budge of her reaction to the scheduling.

Speaking to BBC Scotland's Sportsound, she added: "Clearly, no one believes this is a good solution. I don't believe the SPFL thinks it's a good solution.

"For whatever reason, they feel their hands are tied and they can't come up with an alternative."
