It panned out the way the SFA wanted it to pan out. Really was the perfect ending for them…
Too all the players that won’t be here next season, we thank you, for giving your all
It’s our own fault, we should have put this title out of the SFA and Celtics hands
Easy to look for someone to blame, if we had beat Livingston, Kilmarnock, St Mirren, the league would have been wrapped up
Make no mistake, with Tony Bloom behind us, we will get more chances at this title
It’s a horrific one to take, no two ways about it
This is a hard one, everyone is feeling it. Those who are old enough to remember 86’, are feeling it even more
Champions league qualifier, and second place. We have to take solace in that…
We are the Heart of Midlothian, and we will be back
Congratulations to Celtic, who will never experience the joy and elation that Hearts have felt this season
What an incredible club we are, being top of the league since September, losing it on the last day, due to an awful decision the week before
We will be back, and we will be stronger.
Again, to the players that will not be here next season, we thank you for your efforts
We are the most passionate team in Scotland, and the east of Glasgow will never feel the elation and solidarity as we do now
We support you ever more
🇱🇻
My take: the ball hitting a hand is not always a handball offence. You have to either
1.) deliberately touch the ball with your hand, or
2.) ball hits your hand/arm when it's made your body unnaturally bigger.
This isn't deliberate, and if the ball hits his hand - which is on his forehead in the middle of a normal footballing challenge - he hasn't made his body unnaturally bigger. Because the ball would have hit his head anyway, so his hand on his head does not make his body unnaturally bigger.
Furthermore, VAR can only recommend an on-field review for a clear and obvious error. There is only one camera angle available, which does not show that the referee has missed a clear and obvious error. We can't see clearly where the ball hits.
This is categorically not what VAR was brought in for, and it all needs ripped up in the summer. This is a really poor look for Scottish football, as you can see from the international condemnation online since the game.
You really have to feel for Hearts. Unless you're a Celtic fan of course, that must have been class. But if you're not a Celtic fan. Deary me. Could be a generation defining decision, never mind season defining!
Gabriel was very smart by headbutting Haaland and not accidentally removing his hair bobble in an aerial duel. By avoiding 'violent conduct' he receives a yellow card rather than a red and three-game suspension. Well done, good process.
Watching this Atletico Barca game, it just makes me think about how mental it is that none of the main UK broadcasters think it’s worth buying the rights and putting regular La Liga back on British TV screens.

Former Bayern president Uli Hoeneß: "We could charge more than €120 per season ticket. If we charge €350 per season ticket we would get €2m extra, but what does that mean for us?
The difference for a fan between €120 and €350 is enormous and we do not believe that fans are like cows, which are milked.
Football has to be for everyone. That is the biggest difference between us and England."
Cheap tickets for tomorrow #stfc
Don't be happy about it though!
Just have a whinge that they were not advertised a bit earlier
FFS it's a constant
Some people need to lighten up and enjoy the good in certain things instead of always seeing the negative
Does my nut in
Pochettino was sacked months after leading Spurs to a Champions League final.
Mourinho was let go six days before the 2021 League Cup final.
Now, Ange Postecoglou has been sacked just 16 days after wining the Europa League and ending an 17-year trophy drought.
Spursy 🤷♂️
