No way could they have a dead rubber on Saturday

It wouldn't have been a dead rubber as Celtic need to win either way, just now don't need to score three extra goals than Hearts.

Five goal win though unlikely

It would only need to be 3. Still unlikely, mind.

No it would’ve been five. The goal difference is five.

That absolutely stinks to high heaven, corruption in plain sight.

Every right minded football fan will want Hearts to get the result they need this weekend.
They are no better then Celtic or Rangers


Maybe not, but they haven’t got the SFA in their back pocket either.

VAR is wank.
But because it keeps all talking about the “product” it won’t be going away.

They play each other, so would have needed to win by three, not five.

Well it would have been 6 at that point before the win, but if Hearts concede three and Celtic score three, then that is change of 6 in GD,

Fuckin Fenians
There a few fucking Fenians (Catlics)on my side of the family

And I attended three different Irish-speaking schools. Before my 9th birthday! It's my Guinness World Record entry 8)

Kneecap have reclaimed the F word as a badge of honour. Just leaning into it  :)

But I want the underdog to win, couldn't give a shite who puts a toaster in the cupboard and who leaves it outside of "de press'.

It hit his head

Did well to be a professional footballer with an incorporeal arm then.



But as I stated it still shouldn't have been given as there was no advantage at all as it would have hit is head anyway. If they had given it for the potential elbow, it would have still been harsh but at least more understandable.

If they hadn't been playing each other Celtic could have drawn then hope Hearts lost by five...or would it need to be six ?

Haven't seen live footage yet but apparently the ball powered back away. If it hit his hand the ball would have dropped down, must have come back off his head.
