They have to try and persuade fans to buy season books for reserve team games next year. 
The real question is what happens if they muddle through to play the first few games then go under. Also what if Dundee decide to appeal the decision of the SPL to declare that Hearts weren't insolvent and didn't warrant a points deduction which would have relegated them. |
Scottish football is probably the only place where the most interesting stories and events take place in the close season. We already know who will win 2 of the 4 leagues next season before a ball has been kicked
