Uriah Asante and Mahatma Otoo were prevented by fans of Dwarfs from using the unapproved route to enter the pitch.

Hearts started the game with 9 men after it emerged the enforcer and attacker were nowhere to be found- a situation which led to the delay of the start of the game for fifteen minutes.

There have been accusations and counter-accusation from both teams even though Hearts are yet to state their official position on the unfortunate incident.
